[quote=Anonymous]It is my three year anniversary and I’m still heartbroken about my wedding.

My mother, brother, and grandmother did not attend because I invited my father. Parents are divorced. I said I wasn’t choosing sides and everyone was invited. I arranged for a reception venue that took up two rooms so my parents could avoid each other.

3 months before the wedding, my Grandma started pushing me hard to cancel. She threatened to cut me out of her will and I told her to bring it on. Then my mother and Grandma invented a story about me being “cruel/abusive” to Grandma and they said they wouldn’t attend because of my “severe mental issues” and “abuse.”

The day before my wedding, my brother said he wouldn’t attend because of what I had done to the family.

I know that I sound crazy, but I still play all these events over and over again and wish there was some way it could have come out differently.

I’ve tried therapy. I’ve tried focusing on all the people who DID attend, and cultivating gratitude for that. I’ve tried not thinking about it ( that probably helps the most). It’s just a party, right? I have a good marriage and that’s what’s important. Nothing is working.

After 3 years I thought i would be over it. How many years will it take?[/quote]
