My mom and I have always been really close, espcially after my dad passed away when I was 14, however lately we have really been drifting apart.
Heres some of the things that have been happening:
First of all, I bought my mom a $300 dress for our wedding in Jamaica, which was a plum color, and had matching shoes. Very classy. She was so excited the day I bought it however that all changed the next day. The next day she called me up and mentioned her fiance hated it, and that she will not wear it. I told her I loved it on her, and I think she should still wear it. A few days passed, and the day I was going to pick out my dress she came over to my place and started saying how she is going to buy a white dress for herself for my wedding. I disagreed, and she threw a huge fit. I told her I disagree and only the bride should wear white. A few days has passed, and she still continues on about how she is GOING to wear white, because its cooler, and she doesnt think she should have to wear what I want her to, and she shouldnt have to dress up that much because it is only jamaica.
What do I do? I cannot have her wear white, and I feel like she thinks my wedding isnt very important, because she made the comment that she shouldnt have to dress up that much because its only jamaica.
My mom does not have a wedding date yet, however she is planning on getting married before March (which is only 2 1/2 months away!) She now says she is going to celebrate her honeymoon in Jamaica because its convenient! Jason and I are getting married March 25th, however everyone who is coming is flying down March 22nd, and staying until March 26th. She says during that time she is going to celebrate it. Jason and I are staying until April 2nd. I still think its wrong.
Am I being selfish? I believe you only get married once, and feel like this should be MY time.
Advice needed.
