I’m 19 and my parents have been divorced since I was 11. It was a very messy divorce and my parents actively hate each other so I am very much aware there has never been any chance of them getting back together again.
My dad is getting married this weekend. His fiancé is a very lovely woman, I like her very much, we get on and she cares about me. And her 16 year old son is nice as well. They’ve been together for around 5/6 years so I’ve had plenty of time to get used to the idea of them.
I don’t live at home anymore so it’s not like I live with them either now that they’ve moved in together.
But I still have a lot of unresolved negative feelings about their marriage. Everyone’s going to expect me to be all happy and excited about it at the wedding but I’m not. Why? Why can’t I just be happy for them? Is it normal to feel like this?
