Ok. I'm better. I "met" her via skype and chatted with her and my brother. I made it very clear that I had zero problems with her and that I was very happy that he had found someone worth marrying. I told them that I don't want to be left out and made it clear to them that it won't be happening again. They agreed. While they didn't exactly apologize, they promised no more so I can be happy with that.
Plus, she said my kids were cute and that I was pretty intimidating. She was nervous to meet me. Good! :-)
It's weird to see my brother all weird like this. I hope it works out for him because it's fun to see him happy, but the whole 5 days of knowing each other thing could really cause some stress later on when they honeymoon fades away. I'm happy for him. He's a good guy. He's just making some dumb choices right now and I'm hoping that the choice to marry this girl wasn't one of them.
So that's it. I said my piece. They promised not to leave me out and we're good.
And my dad rescheduled his surgery so he could come to Amelie's baptism because I unloaded some serious baggage on him.
oy. That's the most action this family has had in years!!! :-)
Re: f/u: shotgun wedding
Sounds like in a way it needed to happen, ya know?
Ditto, do you feel better after unloading? I think if it'll make them see how much they were missing out on then hopefully it will be a good thing for your family and you.
