Advice needed, it's coming up to my SS birthday. I have been with my husband for 9+ years and it's his son's 9th birthday party approaching. We have a difficult relationship with his sons mum. Last year was the first year I was involved/invited to his party. It was a great day had by all and I was thanked genuinely by his mum for the effort I put in. This year we had planned to take him on holiday for his birthday, which was agreed upon and then cancelled at the last minute. Which is fine, we've moved on from that. Now we have been asked to pay for his party which of course we have agreed on. But now it has come to light that my SS doesn't want me to be there. (Bear in mind the ex told him this and we have yet to hear it from him) - the reason for this is that I don't dress like other mums .... before you all paint pictures of a bra less Kim kardashian, reject from Geordie shore or alternative tattooed rocker ! I'm just always well put together - make up, hair, heels (where appropriate) more holly Willoughby than TOWIE tramp. Should I respect this and not attend ? Or put it down to childish jealousy from the ex who still carries a flame for my husband and go anyway ? I could understand if this was a painfully recent, but I have been in my SS life for 9 years ! I've missed so much to spare her feelings already .... I don't want to miss anymore ! HELP
