So I almost ended up being hated by my fiancee's entire family when they discovered that quite out of the blue we are having a wedding in October. Not out the blue to me...since we had planned on getting married before leaving the states...but anyway...
My fiancee's mother, who is extremely religious from what I understand, was very angry that Douglas hadn't invited his family (which I understand completely) except nobody really ever explained the circumstances or the fact that we are planning to have a huge wedding/both family celebration next year! Grr...
Just how Catholic are they? I grew up Protestant Lutheran....we were pretty conservative...but nothing like what I might be dealing with. What I may think nobody would mind (due to things I am aware of that go on in the family) are really VERY serious. Yes, wedding is a big family affair. I TOTALLY agree...so why the heck didn't my fiancee (no MATTER how tired he was) go ahead and explain the whole truth right then and there? I think they genuinely hate being on the phone. Dougs and his mother both. Maybe thats it.
These people just aren't good at communicating unless it is face to face...whereas I am so accustomed to picking up my phone and calling or texting whoever and explaining whatever...anytime.
I'll figure this all out about them soon enough....
