mom'sfolly :
I think your mom needs to be asked if she took her MIL on the wedding night with her!
Your parents need a sensitivity training course, or a that smack with the clue by four. Geesh, sorry you are going through this. Do they hate the soon to be hubby? Are you an only child? How many million miles are you going to move away?
Background:
* I'll be 35 at the end of the month.
* DF and I have been together nearly 6 years, lived together for 4.
* I own my own home.
* I have a younger brother who will probably never get married.
* My dad said a year ago that he "would be honored to pay for a wedding".
* My parents have not offered a dime toward wedding or honeymoon costs. My dad says he's afraid of losing his job.
* Since we announced our engagement, my parents have upgraded their den with a brand new 45" flat-screen TV, Bose sound system, & entertainment center.
I can safely say that they're not crazy about my fiance atm b/c they had words a while back. What they won't/don't recognize is why they had words. As for moving, we live across town from my folks. Sometimes... not far enough!
