[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. This thread actually helped me a lot. I spoke with my mom and she said I was too young to need anything when I was getting married and that she told my aunt not to throw me a shower (I didn’t know my aunt evenoffered to throw one). She said a 23 year old didn’t need fancy china like a 30 year old does who hosts family holidays.

I did know that my parents thought I was getting married too young but dh and I were happy together (and still are!) and wanted to get married before buying a house and moving in together.

My family is wealthy. We are not but are comfortably happy and I don’t regret any money spent on my wedding. I guess I just feel like people don’t support young marriages the same way they support older marriages, but that’s my opinion. [/quote]

Your mom sucks and I don't think this is about the wedding. She told your aunt not to throw you a shower?!? That's really rude.

My mom tells stories from many years ago where she takes credit for things in my life she didn't do. It's not hurtful because I walk around being angry about those events in general, it's hurtful because it's a reminder of how she actually wasn't there for me when I needed or, or she's rewritten history to make herself at the center of something I did myself.
