Some context: My grandmother (dad’s side) moved to another state when I was 7. Before that, she had always lived nearby, but after the move, we barely stayed in touch—I haven’t really known or seen her in about 15 years.
I’m getting married next week, and it’s really important to me that my wedding is a kind and inclusive space, especially since many of my friends are part of the LGBTQIA+ community. My grandmother is very religious, so my dad had a conversation with her about the wedding and made sure to explain that being kind and respectful to all guests was expected.
Two days after that talk, she suddenly told us she couldn’t come to the wedding because she “got sick.” This was 9 days before the wedding.
Then, just two days ago, she posted photos on Facebook of herself getting a new horse—looking totally healthy and happy. That rubbed me the wrong way.
I ended up blocking her on Facebook because it hurt that she’d bail on one of the biggest days of my life (especially with such a flimsy excuse), then turn around and post like nothing happened.
Now I’m wondering—AITA for cutting her out of the wedding stuff entirely and not wanting any more contact? Is it overreacting since we haven’t been close in years anyway?
Please wait...
