Party outcome (drama involved)

My mom and I decided to suck it up and go to my niece's party, despite the fact my dad and his wife would be there. My mom talked to my brother's GF and suggested that there be separate parties in the future because of all of the history. GF asked if it was just about me, but my mom said she didn't want to see him, either. Then we all got a text from GF saying that she uninvited my dad, that she didn't mean to step on any toes, etc. My mom and I were relieved. They said they comprised by inviting my dad to dinner after the party. Minutes later, my father (who has had zero contact with me for five years and very little for almost two before that) wrote a nasty preachy message on my FB wall. Obviously I was livid, as was my mom. She called my brother, who denied having anything to do with inviting them, that he told his GF not to invite them. Whatever. We all got over it and had a good time at party. My brother was even pretty ass-kissy to me. Today was our Gma's 70th birthday. We had a big party for her and had it planned for a long time. My brother called my mom this morning to tell her they wouldn't be at the party because my dad convieniently rescheduled at the last minute to go to my brother's today. My Gma was disappointed that they cancelled on her. My brother again told my mom that it was all his GF's doing in inviting them. It is hard to say if that is true or if he is just throwing her under the bus to save face. Shitty either way. Oh, and I left my dad's comment on FB so that everyone can see how much of an ass he is. I chose not to respond or acknowledge it.::sigh::: I'm so over the BS and drama.

    I didn't respond to your post the other day about going to the party, but I'm glad you were able to have a good time.  I'd be de-friending dad on FB, however.

    Sorry there was drama involved, but at least you were able to enjoy the party, right? 

    Although we're not FB friends, so I didn't see the comment, this just proves his assiness, huh?  Kudos for taking the high road.

    Hugs, also.

    ugh...family drama is always so awful-I'm sorry you're dealing with it!  I have to say I'm surprised you're fb friends with him if you have no other contact.  I'd be deleting him asap!

    BLAH!  Nest ate my reply.

     

    In short.

     

    I love you, and it pains me to watch your dad intentionally hurt you after years of doing so 'passively'.

    I am friends him on FB because he added me a few years ago when he joined.  He never contacted me and rarely posts anything other than playing games.  He will be removed from my friends list tonight.  I didn't get to it last night.

    There is nothing worse than toxic parents. I have one myself.

    he sounds like he has narcissistic personality disorder or whatever it's called.  I'm sorry you have to deal with all that.
