And honestly, it will almost certainly be the last time you see your grandfather. Ask him some questions. Not just chit chat, but straight up, why were you always so angry when we were kids? What was my mom like as a little girl?
He'll either confirm he's an asshole or you'll learn some interesting family history. |

Date: May 24th, 2022 6:26 PM Author: thriller bawdyhouse This is selfish and I feel like an asshole, but just a long flight for a couple days and I'm not close to any of this side of my family. Don't think I've seen any since 2014 or so in-person, but she herself was always kind to me after her own son died when I did see her, so I feel conflicted.

Date: May 24th, 2022 6:29 PM Author: Cracking mauve house think you gotta go. my answer at 25 would have been different, but at 35+ or so you are starting to be more of a lean-on part of the family, even if not especially close.
minimize it if you can, but an 1 night stay would seem minimal |

Date: May 26th, 2022 10:57 PM Author: thriller bawdyhouse Per grandfather whom I can't exactly love (there's more to the story), they're doing the informal ceremony on a weekday I can't take off. I was really mad when I made this thread but thought about softening. Yet it's probably indicative of the relationship I have with that side of the family that I had to call the widower to get details. My mom was just mad because she thought I was making her look bad, her admission no exaggeration. |
