Stepmom and mom of groom

Karla, on October 24, 2024 at 2:20 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 1
I am mother of the groom, my son had a stepmom who helped raise him and she and his dad divorces but she is still a big part in his life. She hates me! She was listed as mother of the groom on the wedding party. I was too but it still hurt. She was invited to bridal shower and I was not nor was my family. We threw the couple a separate shower just so we could celebrate them. Now I find out that the rehearsal dinner is at ex stepmoms new husband's parents house. How do I navigate this, I have been given an invite from my soon to be daughter n law but this is going to really be difficult for me to go to a place where I know I'm not wanted or liked. This whole wedding has put me in a deep depression because I feel like stepmom has taken the reigns as mom and I'm just along for the ride. I do not want to ever hurt my son but every time I turn around this woman is in the position where I should be. I am his mother. What do I do. ?

    Go to the rehearsal dinner and be there for your son. Whatever is going on with between you and the stepmom predates this wedding. It more than likely will continue long after the wedding. The time to address it was back when the stepmom was still married to dad and the son was a kid. At this point it's a waste of time and will only ruin your son's day.
