[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think she would have been less offended if you had seemed more supportive and perhaps given her some specific, helpful advice. E.g., "Oh, honey, I'm so sorry you're going through this. I know I had a hard time figuring out what to do when I fell in love with Larlo. I wish for you that things could have been easier, but I certainly know from my own experience that you fall in love with whomever you fall in love with! In some ways I still have regrets, about what I did--we continue to have rocky relationships with both sets of parents, so be aware that that can continue. Plus, having to tell Mom and Dad after the fact was very painful, and I regret the way I did it. I wish in retrospect we had let them known in advance, and then given them the choice of whether or not to attend. I still feel like we took the coward's way out…" You also said she supported you in your decision--couldn't you have found a kinder way to support her?[/quote]
