My dad... his girlfriend....Long Rant
My dad almost gave me a freaking heart attack this weekend! So we were talking on the phone and he asks me how the wedding plans are going so I tell him that I am ordering my invites this week. He then proceeds to ask me 'how does it work if you want to invite additional people?' I ask him 'invite like who dad?' He tells me that he was thinking of inviting his girlfriend's, woman's ( whatever she is)...mother and sister!!!! My heart stopped for like a second because I could not believe he would ask me that! He sense that I was out of words because he quickly said that he had not asked them yet, but that they are always asking him about me, that he will pay for their plates and that we didnt have to talk about it now. I didnt know what to say to him because I was furious, so I told him that we would talk about this at a later time.
Let me explain in how many ways this is so wrong! They have been together for 5 years and have a child (my 3 yr old half sister). She is in her 30's and my dad in his 50's. I have met her mother once, and the sister a few times. His girlfriend is barely invited! The only reasons she is invited is 1)out of respect for my dad and my little sister 2) my mom finally said she was ok with it 3) someone has to be with my little sister when my dad is walking me down the isle and dancing with me. But her family??My dad does not get that this is an intimite wedding (100 p) and we want to people who actually care about us and are not just trying to look good in front of him! He must be crazy! Plus, I have not even told my mom because she would go pyscho on him! I don''t want to make him feel bad because he can't really help me much with the wedding (he is paying for the DJ), bc these have been tough times for him, but this is where I draw the line.
I know this is long, but I really had to let it out!
