In Response to Re: Uninvolved MOB:
Your mother is justifiably jealous. She gave birth to you and raised you, and now you like (love?) someone better than her. Skip wedding talk for a while and just be a good daughter. They make daughter-to-mother Valentine's cards. Find one. Ask what's going on in her life. Maybe see her just-because. When she's calmed down, very gently double-check she doesn't want to be involved in planning. If she doesn't, fine. If she does, say something like, "Well, I'll e-mail you about appointments and plans related to wedding-planning. Respond if you'd like to come. If not, you can ignore them."

This is really terrible advice. I think you need to re-read the part where OP says they've never gotten along. I don't think a daughter-to-mother Valentine's Day card is going to make her mother suddenly see the light or provide her father with a spine.

fiancee = vag ** fiance = peen
** Babies shouldn't be born with jobs **
**They're called first loves for a reason -- more are supposed to come after. You don't get a medal for marrying your prom date. Unless you're imoan. Then you get an all-expenses paid cruise to the Mediterranean and you get to meet Jared Padalecki on the flight over while wearing your jammies. But still no medal. **
