To give some context, my dad is a Muslim, we were never brought up as Muslim but he always just assumed we were, despite having a Catholic mum. He's always been very difficult and as I've got older, our relationship has become harder, he's very immature and argumentative but I have always tried my best to keep him happy.
Earlier this year, I found out I was pregnant, we're not married and I knew this would be a problem but, perhaps naïvely, thought that dad would have a little strop and then be fine considering my mum died a few years ago and he's the only one I have left. This was not the case, he threw the scan picture at me, called me easy (not the actual word he used, he said something far worse) and didn't speak to Me for 3 months, despite my older brother and sister's intervention.
My older brother then spoke to dad and my dad told him if me and my boyfriend were to get married, he'd speak to me again. In order to get the relationship i so craved back, I agreed and arranged for my boyfriend and I to get married.
I arranged a quick, small wedding, with just a few family members, we could hardly afford it but wanted dad to be on my side again.
Dad loves attention so was absolutely buzzing on the day, getting to walk me down the aisle, ect. The day was nice but towards the end of the evening, my dad went quiet and started saying he felt sick. He often does this when he's not had attention for a while so I put it down to that. He then left, which was fine as it was winding down anyway.
The next day I called him and he was really off with me so I said I'd call again later. Called the next day, same thing.
The following day got a message from my brother saying he'd just had a massive argument with dad. I called dad to see what was wrong, found out that he was angry because I had my aunt sign our marriage certificate and not him. I was dumbfounded. He said my husband was a 'good boy' because he had his dad sign. I tried to explain that since mum had died, my aunty really stepped in so I wanted both to be a part, dad walking me down the aisle, aunt signing register. I explained that if our mum's were there (both me and my husband have lost our mum's) they would have signed the register. I told him I felt that this was just another excuse to have a strop and that nothing is ever good enough for him. I said you walked me down the aisle and that's what every father is expected/wants to do. He's not spoken to me for 2 months now despite my greatest efforts.
WIBU to not have him sign the register?
