In today's Ask Amy, a woman feels excluded after not receiving an invitation to her niece's wedding. The bride says she is angry her aunt favored another niece as a teenager and she doesn’t want her to attend.
During our 30-year marriage we lived three to four hours from his family and visited at major holidays. I was present in Clare’s life from the time of her birth and during all the years of our marriage. I have seen her at my daughter’s wedding, graduations, funerals, and on Facebook over these years.My ex and I have stayed close, and he asked why I wasn’t invited.
This niece and her parents will be invited to my son’s out-of-town wedding next year, and she attended an engagement party this spring.I saw the parents of the bride at a family funeral just last week, and didn’t bring it up.Dear Aunt: I assume that you’ve arrived at one important destination, in that you no longer would even consider attending a wedding where the bride so steadfastly does not want you there.
You could send her a card, expressing your concern about your relationship with her, which has only surfaced now. You could state that you had no idea she was holding onto a resentment leftover from her teen years, and say that you wish you had been aware of this so you could have addressed it with her.I suggest you also include wording like, “Your uncle Bud and I have managed to remain close friends even though we are divorced, and will always consider our families to be linked and loving.
