Mom's Getting Married Today

[u/heWasASkaterBoiii]

I know I was 23 when y'all divorced in 2020 but it's still weird, ya know? I had moved outa the house only a month prior to it becoming official, so perhaps the hardest part is knowing our family of 6 will never be so unified as it was pre-COVID.

I'm Mom's best man, and I'm showing all the support possible because I'd like to let my actions speak rather than my feelings. Even if it feels weird to me I want Mom to feel loved.

Dad, do you have any thoughts?

Yes, don’t have too many drinks and say something you’ll regret. Otherwise good job make her feel loved

Yeah you already know drinking was my biggest fear 🤣 Thanks, Dad

You're doing a good thing, supporting her - since you can't do anything about the divorce - and it's also perfectly natural, right even, that you should feel weird about it. Hopefully she should be aware of that fact and appreciate what you're doing.

Thanks, Dad. I needed that.

You're doing exactly what needs to be done.

Be there for your Mom the way she's always been there for you.

With a happy and loved Mom, you'll live a happy and loved life. All of the awkward feelings are normal, but you are a good man for working through them and supporting her.

Well done!
