I really wish that I could say I have a close knit family that rarely had any dissagreements but in all reality thats the farthest thing from the truth. Yet it seems that in the past 3 weeks all the family drama has erupted like a volcano and while everyone promises that they will put it all aside for the wedding and act civil I can't help but feel like my wedding is going to turn out to be one huge cage fight.
Recently my brother and my sister in law, who is also a bridesmaid split up. That whole relationship is about as destructive as a massive train wreck. On top of that my mom & stepdad clearly sided with my sister in law infuriating my brother while my dad and his gf have chosen to choose my brother's side. I'm proud to say I'm out of grade school and have remained as neutral as possible during the whole matter. But despite my efforts I still get dragged into the mess.
I'm 18 days away and I can't discuss anything wedding related longer than 5 minutes without it getting back to the sore subject. So much that I had to make my mother promise that my brothers name would not be mentioned at my bridal shower the other day.
I fully understand the world does not revolve around me and other stuff is happening while I'm planning this wedding but for petes sake this is suppose to be a happy time in my life as a bride to be rather than a referee!
I hope they do keep their word and act like civil humans but my stomach is in knots about the whole mess!
