How have my brides handled guest guilt during these times?
I envisioned my mother being there while dress shopping, but she is so high risk. She did not say she wanted to come but said it was "whatever you wanted to do!" But I told her to stay at home and I told her if I insisted she went and then got sick, I would feel absolutely horrible and selfish and not because she was unwanted.
I have some friends coming in her place and will zoom/facetime/video chat with her during the appointment. I am still a bit disappointed. I'm also feeling guilty because I'm not completely sure if she was being polite to my plans or was actually impartial, but I told her "no" either way.
COVID is the worst of times. Anyone have any ideas on how to make video chatting more involved/special? Or something I can do with her later that's a little safer?
