Exes at weddings.

Names have been changed.. lol. Our STD's went out yesterday but I prepared them all last week. Gave every parent the chance to look at their guest lists and add/replace/subtract, etc. My Mom wants to add a lady named *Susan Shmoe* to the list. Susan Shmoe is the mother of *Joe Shmoe.* Joe Shmoe is...

My Mom wants to add a lady named *Susan Shmoe* to the list. Susan Shmoe is the mother of *Joe Shmoe.* Joe Shmoe is my ex-bf. We dated for 5 years in high school/college. Haven't talked to her or him in about 3 years and neither has my Mom.

After I picked up my jaw, I asked why, of course. She said my ex and I "grew up" together. Uh, haven't talked to EITHER of them since the break up.... huh?! Joe just got married recently. I asked if they had invited my Mom to THEIR wedding. NO. They didn't. So no, he's not invited nor his mother.

So that made me curious. Did/is anyone inviting an ex to their wedding? Anyone worried about that? Anyone totally fine with it?

    F#@# No! Since to this day most of them still want him back. I may make an exeption for one of this good friends whom he dated over 14 years ago.

    FH suggested I invite them all so that the groomsmen could shoot them with paintball guns

    An ex is an ex for a reason. I lose contact with an ex almost immediately after the break up. So, I wouldn't even know where to get a hold of them (well maybe if I tried, two of the serious exes- we do share mutual friends), but I wouldn't even dream of it.

    Then again, I am having an intimate wedding (100 guests) and honestly, if I haven't spoken to you in x amount of years, there's no way im dropping $110 for your dinner and whatever the rest of the total of $ I am paying per person, once I add all the other details together.

    Plus, I don't believe in having relationships with exes. That's just me. IMHO it's pointless. My exes are basically strangers now.

    My husband was once loving and caring but to a point he stopped and totally forsake me, he wasn’t having time for me because he was having an affair, all he was, i was so devastated that i didn’t know what to do. I did love him so much, even when he was still not caring and was cheating i couldn’t leave cause i still loved him, i sorted for help from every where i could to have my husband back, i luckily found Robinson Buckler who was helping people out on relationship and marriage issues. I went on and contacted him, i explained what i was going through in my marriage, then he assured me that he would help me, i did all that he instructed me to do and then he told me that my husband would return to me after some days, i waited patiently and after some days passed my husband came home one evening and started apologizing to me to forgive him for how he had been treating me, i was so surprised beyond words that i can’t thank this you enough. Contact (Robinson.Buckler) today via Google his name as Robinson.Buckler the online spell caster…………………..
