So to make this a very long story short. My mother has done nothing but tear me down from the moment that my fiance and I got engaged, almost 3 years ago and we have been together for almost 5 years. I can't seem to do anything correct even though I ask her how to go about looking into certain aspects of the wedding, invited her to certain things so she feels included and so on. I've done my part. My mother is completely delusional and screams at me every time her and I get together and makes me feel like I am 1 inch tall. She gives me excuses when it comes to trying to get together to meet my fiances' family and then continues to yell at me for it at a later date. Her and I had a chat the other day where I told her that she doesn't even treat me like her daughter and she treats my brothers girlfriends better than she treats me, her own flesh and blood. She didn't even blink with that statement or try to deny it and prove me wrong. Her only response to that was, well if you want to feel like part of the family you should come around more often (her definition is every weekend) and maybe you will start to feel like you are part of this family. She just recently told me, after saying she wasn't going to, that she came up with a date for my bridal shower. In response to whom she is going to invite she replied it's going to be family only. I had asked if she would be willing to invite my fiances step-mother and aunt and she said that she wouldn't invite 'those people' or people she doesn't know aka my friends. My bridesmaids and I had come up with a date months ago for looking into having my bridal shower and now because of the situation I am in, I do not want to hurt anyone's feelings anymore and I don't want to be continuously stomped on by my mother. So...with that being said, are there any brides that are out there where they are made to feel like they are worthless to their families and are no longer looking forward to things? How would you handle my situation? I do not want multiple bridal showers and I no longer want my mother shouting at me. I am at the point where I no longer care about what I want and what my fiance want, I just want to survive and no longer have emotional break downs on a weekly basis. PLEASE HELP!!!
