Sara, From what I've read, even though Retro is Catholic-based, you can opt out of the mass services? I may have read that here. What other role did the priest have in the weekend? (I'm not Catholic.)
Interesting dinner tonight. H talked to our D about what happened with her BF last night. A couple things were said but then H asked if she was working it out with him. She said, I don't know. He asked why. She said, pretty vehemently ... BECAUSE HE CHEATED ON ME! He said calmly, "I understand."
For a moment, I thought we were going to get into a very interesting conversation, but it was dropped. However, I think I may need to have a more in-depth talk with her. I have told her anytime she wants to talk about things, I am here. I have tried to get her to ask questions, but she won't. She's very private. The only thing she has ever asked me about her Dad and OW was (with tears in her eyes), "Did he really take her to the beach?"
I explained to her at that time (4 months ago) that her Dad and I had been having problems for awhile but I didn't know what to do about it. But I told her that I did love him and now we had a chance to face things and work them out.
But given her reaction to her BF, and what she said tonight, I think I'll try again. Not sure how to do that yet ...
