Quote: maybe your D is strong enough to tell him she wants/needs him there!
That's what I was going to say.....would D call her dad and say "please come"? You mentioned that your parents were coming. Will any of H's family be there?
Thanks angstuff1 & Matilda,
D16 told me she already asked him and he said he wouldn't be able to make it. I asked D if H said why, and D said, "NO he just can't."
Yeah, you are correct, I want HIM to WANT to be there. It's not to make him feel guilty. I don't want him to miss something in her life that he can't go back and have a re-do on. If he misses it, it won't happen again.
Yes, my parents and mutual friends of H and I and people who live in our neighborhood are coming. I left it to H to invite his family, but of course, I can't say if he did or didn't. They all live about a 2 hr. drive away, and no one has called to ask directions to the church, so I assume they are not coming.
I am sure you all can figure out WHY H can't make it.....He can't face our neighbors and my parents and our friends.
Even if he doesn't realize it consciously, he feels so guilty about what he is doing. If he were so proud of himself, why not show up with his family in tow (and his whore) and boldly proclaim his right to be there?
