Future SIL and I never had a good relationship. Through the years, she was always domineering, excluding me, passive-agressive bullying me and it wasn't until I got the ring was when she was "decent" towards me. She gets jealous easily (in general) and always wants to be the center of attention (she's not an attention w----; she's acts entitled to being the center of attention, if that makes sense). She has the "me, me, me" attitude.
Anyhoo, she's not even Catholic but planned for her baby to be baptized a week before the wedding. She talked about how she was not a fan of the religion but it seems as if she gets approval from her family members that her baby is being brought into the Christian world. Technically, she grew up Catholic but decided not to be confirmed nor marry in Catholic tradition; no judgment. People have their own preferences. Her husband isn't Catholic either. I vividly remember her telling me, "our family members will judge you and not want to go if you don't have it in church." My response: "Lucky for them, FH and I have always loved the tradition of having the ceremony in church, so it's going to be great!" And then she frowned haha
Now that I've calmed down, I'm not mad. I find it weird and annoying but it's not the end of the world. I'm pretty sure I won't be able to attend bc I'll be so pre-occupied. And again - who schedules this a week before? Maybe it's to get back at not being in the wedding party. Maybe it's to bring the attention back again. Who knows? i just find it weird. My FH will be the Godfather and if I don't attend, will it make me look bad? I'm sure people will understand that it's going to be difficult. Unless this was in her plan all along to passively exclude me again - so that I WON'T attend... anyhoo, anyone else find this weird? (And thank goodness for some Buddhist ways but maybe she jut exposed herself by scheduling a Christening a week before her brother's wedding...)
