Should I go to the wedding or not?
The wedding is one of my close friend's mother.Her mother is marrying this great guy,he isnt my friend's birth father but is going to be a great step dad. I feel uncomfortable because of my friend's future step grandma's date. This man is maybe 50ish (their whole family is really young) and he raped his 8 yr old daughter some 20 yrs ago. He spent a couple years in jail and then was set free. He makes me really uneasy the few times ive met him . What he did to his daughter he doesnt consider rape because he said she "enjoyed it" He is disgusting and i dont know why she'd ever date him. he is deff. coming to the wedding and i dont know if i can stand being around him. I am pretty opinionated and feel like giving this guy a piece of my mind about what a low life he is. Please give me any advice, thank you.

- follow your heart
- Don't go send a card and all your love to the mother. It sounds like a bad situation to be in. Just my opinion, but it is what I would do.
- i would feel the same way as you if i was in the same boat. if you feel that uncomfortable, then dont go.. explain to your friend the circumstances but try not to be too rude not that you would be being rude in these circumstances but its whatever you go with good luck and have fun if you do decide to go :]
- Regardless of his history, if the hosts want him to be there, you should have the manners to not make a scene on someone's wedding day. If you think you can't keep your thoughts to yourself, avoid him or simply don't go.
- dont do something that maked you feel uncomfortable
- If you value your friendship and her family isn't willing to step in and say the same thing I would not go. It's not your place to ruin a special day for them. I know you don't agree and I don't either, about letting that man into their family but it's their call not yours. The only thing you can do if you're not comfortable is to avoid the whole situation and send your best wishes.
