I'm a single mother in every sense of the word. My husband passed away when my daughter was 17.

She is my whole world. She got engaged this weekend, and I was left out of all the plans. Her fiance planned it all out with her Dad's family and their friends. I simply got a text that I was invited and when to show up. I am happy for the two of them, but after my invite I found out that is had all been planned ahead and everyone knew but me, I'm hurt that her fiance didn't have the respect as my daughter's only parent to include me in the the day every mother dreams of. I didn't go and I feel terrible a out it, but I felt so disrespected. Was I wrong, I've spoken with my daughter and she said I'm playing the victim. I don't feel like a victim, I just feel I deserved more than a text invite.
My daughter wants me to apologize to her fiance. I need advice.

I understand where you might have felt hurt - but I believe you still should have attended the proposal. Her fiancé did not have to include you at all during the proposal, but he did. And who he chose to help plan it doesn't really matter - he chose friends/family that he felt close to.

Still applies either way regardless of what type of event it is

That makes no sense. Nobody sends formal written invitations to watch them get engaged.

Another classic case of someone posting “am I wrong?” And then going radio silent when everyone says “YES”.

I’m not quite sure why you feel excluded if you were invited. I’m sure everyone was invited by text to prevent your daughter from potentially seeing an invitation and completely ruining the surprise. If others were more involved in the planning, it’s most likely because he knew they’d help without causing drama! Your reaction and refusal to go essentially shows why he did not ask your assistance!
