writes:I am getting married in a year. We have been together for 6 years. My fiance has a 17 year old daughter who will go off to college next year. We set our date for August 21. His daughter was raised by him and his parents. Yesterday his mother asked me can can we change the date of our wedding because she thinks it will interfere with his daughter going off to college. However, she does not even know what college she is going to, in fact his daughter has not even applied to college. Not only not did his mother ask this she also asked for me to change the date of my bridesmaids dress fitting appointment, his daughter is a bridesmaid in my wedding. Apparently, that date conflicts with a hair appointment that his mother booked because later that night is her homecoming, Please keep in mind the dress fitting is at 12:00 in the afternoon. My fiance gives his mom a lot of power, when she asked me these things he was in the room. I feel like this is a preview of life with him. I really don't want to end up resenting his mother let alone be in a marriage where he is always trying to make her happy. I want to have a great relationship with his mom but the things she is asking is very presumptuous.

I think you need to talk over boundaries with your husband to be .. lay your cards on the table .. This is his and your day and you two do get to choose the day of your wedding .. so talk it I've Rex plain what you've said here what you write isn't mean .. so open up the topic .. families I can understand and relate to .. I have been paying for my nieces hair to be done since she was ten she now 22 and not working and doesn't get up until after lunch . My sister hit the roof when I made an appointment for half 11 .. see we can't win them all . Lol lol
