: One of our sons and his fiancée are going to get married in a civil ceremony nine months before they have a formal wedding.
If they were saying “come help us celebrate being married” or doing a one-year vow renewal, we would get that.They are not a shallow couple, but it feels like it’s a show that misses the reason for a wedding?Dear Wanting And now for the reframing: Consider this upcoming wedding their one religious ceremony and family celebration, bringing their more quotidian legal marriage into a new and spiritual realm of married life.The abuse was very seriously physical on my dad’s side, and mentally and emotionally on my mom’s.
One sibling can’t understand why I won’t have a relationship with this person, and there is a lot of underlying anger toward me because of this.Your therapy can address your need to make this sibling understand why you are keeping your distance from family members who have hurt you.
