I never realized how alone I truly am until today...I was in foster care so don't have much family to begin with. I only have 2 friends in the area that could go with me. One of them has plans today and the other one may not be coming with me. If you have read my other post, you know that my mother...

I never realized how alone I truly am until today...I was in foster care so don't have much family to begin with. I only have 2 friends in the area that could go with me. One of them has plans today and the other one may not be coming with me. If you have read my other post, you know that my mother is not involved much and may not even be invited to the wedding and my sister is out of state. I cannot invite SO's sisters as one is out of the country and the other one is not a very nice person. I feel like this is going to be the most depressing dress shopping experience I could ever imagine.

Anyone else go dress shopping on their own and enjoy themselves?

    After what I experienced yesterday I'm seriously considering it.

    I went alone for my for first appointment and was so glad I did. I was able to determine the silhouette and style that I liked, and not what other people liked for me. So at my next time appt when I brought my family I was already more confident in what I was trying on.

    I found my dream dress when I went shopping alone. My mom passed away when I was in college and I tried going shopping with friends and even my grandmother but none of the dresses felt right. One day on a whim I decided to go out alone and ended up finding my perfect dress!
