So... as it turns out: you're off the hook. I don't need it, okay? I don't need you to be happy for me. I don't need you to celebrate me. I don't even need your blessing. I don't need to be given away. I don't need to be made to feel guilty because he didn't ask YOUR permission (even though he asked MY FATHER.) I don't need to worry about whether or not you'll think I'm a beautiful bride or the fact that I came in second to your favorite. I don't need to wonder why you didn't care. I don't need to pretend that you were just "too busy with other things." I don't need you to respond to my RSVP. I don't need you to be there--"because, you might cause a scene." I don't need you to be happy for me... because, as it turns out: all of this is happening regardless of you. This is fucking happening because someone decided to make me their family. Because, they know I'm not a bad person. Because, they know I'm actually a pretty fucking GREAT person. I don't need to be a part of your narrative of me being a selfish, defiant child anymore. Here's to the future. #married #gettingmarried #fiance #itsgonnabechoice #movingon and finally... #isthatsceneenoughforyou ??
