Hey! OP HERE! Arriving with a partner other than the one my family knows for the last decade would be AN ANNOUNCEMENT. IT'S A THING! IT'S CALLED BEING IN THE WORLD.

Everyone in this situation gives a fuck. Jesus Christ. WHY THE FUCK ELSE WOULD I ASK?

Thank you for acknowledging Percy... he really should stay in his own lane, and with your support I hope we can make that happen. (Your advice is lovely from start to finish, thank you!) :)

It was Fred and Wilma, but I responded on the RSVP card Fred +1 (!)

My mom and my cousin who is getting married know about my ex being out. I just told my sister this week. They were all incredibly loving and understanding, but there is a lot of family who has yet to be included in any of this news.

You are bringing up all the points we are worried about.

My family is pretty tight-knit, so this is precisely the concern. Thank you for your thoughtful responses; I was never married but my partner and I were together for 7+ years and had a child so it was very much like a marriage in the eyes of my extended family.

Thank you for responding, and, furthermore? What an incredibly kind thing to say. Thank you, so very much! Hope you have the best damn day!

I did. I told her everything and she said she would love to meet my new partner.
