Baby Shower Drama

Hi ladies. I'm new here. I don't know why I didn't think to post anything here till now lol. Well I am having an issue with my baby shower. I am being told that I should invite my dads wife. She is not a nice person and is not a nice person to me. She wont say hi or ackwnolage my presence at family functions and she tried to get my in laws to hate me at my own wedding. Needless to say that didn't work and we are very close. My father I rarely speak to and ita been that why my whole life. Hes like her. But I am really against inviting her. My mom and other family members are saying its the right thing to do. What should I do?

    Maybe she won't show up, she clearly doesn't care about you, but if you invite and she doesn't show up its on her ... But if the possibility of her showing up would ruin your day then don't! She sounds like a really mean person.

    If she shows no interest in you, odds are she won't show love for the baby either. She'll just make the shower awkward for everyone involved if she really is that way towards you.

    Do you have guests on the list that are on your dads side of the family? Do you think she would come?

    I get the whole "be the bigger person" mentality, but sometimes I feel like enough is enough and the abuse has to end somewhere. Maybe it ends with your baby and them never having to be involved with someone so negative.

    Well I have been the bigger person with my dad my whole life and with her for the past 10 years (thats how long they have been together).

    Yes my dads family is invited. I am very close with them and so is my mom. They all do not like her.

    If I do invite her she most likely will not come since my dad wont go bbecause its all women. Part of me feels that if I don't invite her then I will be saying I'm done with your games and drama, but she wont get that.

    I say why make it awkward for you... It's your baby shower. Something to think about...
