Stepdad is fooled into paying for daughter's wedding, answers with 7 words that make everyone
freeze
Today, it's no longer uncommon for all kinds of different families to exist that are unlike
the traditional nuclear family.
Stepdads, stepmoms, stepchildren and stepbrothers and sisters are just the beginning of it.
And for so many, this works just fine.
For the stepdad in this story, however, things weren't going quite so well.
He tells the story about how he'd welcomed and supported his new partner and her daughter
from a previous relationship... but when came time for that daughter's big wedding day,
things took a bad turn.
It's unclear whether this stepdad's story happened in real life or not, but it's is
absolutely worth the read anyway.
My step-daughter will be getting married on November 3rd.
The wedding planning has consumed most of her and her mother's lives (I say her mother
because we aren't married, though we've lived together for years) for the past six
months.
My step-daughter graduated last December from University.
I paid for her to go to college, though it was a state school, it still ran $40K. She
does not have a job and has been living with us for the duration of her college career
and since her graduation.
I also bought her a car to get back and forth from school when she finished high school.
From time to time her deadbeat father would pop into her life and she would fawn all over
him.
Although he has not contributed a cent to her education or paid any child support, though
that is my girlfriend's fault as C.S. was not part of the settlement, she still loves
him and wants him in her life.
He stays long enough to break her heart by skipping town and breaking some promise that
he made her.
The wedding venue holds 250 people max.
I gave them a list of 20 people that I wanted invited, you know, since I was paying for
everything.
They told me that was no problem and they'd take care of it.
So I let these people know they'd be getting an invite and they should save the date.
Saturday, I saw one of my friends on this list at the golf course and asked if he was
coming.
He told me that he wasn't invited.
He told me that he got an announcement, but not an invitation.
He had it in his back seat and showed it to me.
Sure enough, it was just an announcement, and my name was nowhere on it.
It had her dad's name and her mom's name and not mine.
This led to a pretty big fight with my GF, as I found out that NONE of my list of twenty
"made the cut" for the final guest list because "250 people is very tight."
I was pissed, but not a hell of a lot I could do because the important people in my life
had already been offended.
My GF said "if some people didn't rsvp yes, I might be able to get a couple people
in."
But that is an ultimate slap in the face in my opinion.
So, I was boiling on Saturday.
Yesterday, we had a Sunday dinner with the future in-law's family and us and a surprise
guest, the "Real Dad."
At this little dinner my step-daughter announced that her "Real Dad" was going to be able
to make it to her wedding and that now he'd be able to give her away.
This was greeted with a chorus of "Oh how great" and "How wonderful"s.
I don't think I have ever felt so angry and so disrespected.
I was shaking.
I took a few seconds to gather my composure, because I honestly wasn't sure if I would
cry or start throwing punches or both.
Once I was sure I'd be able to speak I got up from my chair and said I'd like to make
a toast.
I can't remember exactly what I said but the gist of it was this:
"I'd like to make a toast."
The sound of spoons against glasses ring in my ears.
"It has been my great pleasure to be a part of this family for the past ten years."
Awe, how sweet.
"At this point in my life I feel I owe a debt of gratitude to bride and groom, because
they have opened my eyes to something very important."
Confident smiles exchanged.
"They have showed me that my position in this family is not what I once thought it
was."
And now a glimmer of confusion and shock begins to spread on the faces in the room.
"Though I once thought of myself as the patriarch or godfather of the family, commanding
great respect and sought out for help in times of need, it seems instead that I hold the
position of an ATM, good for a stream of money, but not much else.
As I have been replaced as host, both on the invitations and in the ceremony, I am resigning
my financial duties as host to my successor, Real Dad.
So cheers to the happy couple and the path they have chosen."
I finished my drink.
"You all can let yourselves out."
