DD (31) has been engaged for a while and is now planning the wedding. We don’t live close, and I just feel sad that I’m not involved in anyway. She’s not asked my opinion, or shared ideas with me. Her MIL is more involved because she is highly strung and involves herself in everything, whereas as I am more laid back and do whatever I can to make DD life easier, and fit in with whatever she wants. I now think this may have been a mistake because if I was more insistent, I’d be considered.
I know it’s her day, I’d just like to be a little more involved. We gave money when they got engaged but they used that for a house, now they are getting married using inheritance from her partner’s family.
Just posting because I feel sad really ☹️
