We didn’t think he wanted to be a groomsman, but he says he’s very hurt.
: “William” and I are getting married this summer. He is in his mid-30s. He has one brother, “Sam,” who is 25.Ask Amy: I’m the bride, and I’m being pressured into a decision I oppose
We’re not sure what to do at this point. We both think he is overreacting, but we don’t want to hurt his feelings.: Your fiancé has one brother. He chose a handful of men to be groomsmen who have been “extremely important in his life.” This exclusion hurts. You didn’t think it would bother Sam, but it does. He’s been honest about how hurt he is, and I think that your fiancé should apologize and offer him a place in the wedding.My boyfriend of 10 years does not have a close relationship with his parents and really no relationship at all with his two siblings.
I know it hurts him, but he doesn’t feel he can do much about it. He does try to reach out, with little response from them. After 10 years with him, you might have had opportunities to affect this dynamic to some degree, but you don’t seem eager to exert yourself, either. If these daughters have aligned with their mother, they might have been lied to and their own spirits and relationships poisoned.
