While I understand your comments about family and have an appreciation of the thought..... this woman was in no means family. She simply had a child theat is gentictically linked to my child. She wasn't invited to the dinner but showed up when she heard who all would be there. It was an unconfortable situation for everyone especially my ex's girlfriend that didn't know that he had created a child with this woman when he had taken business trips to the town she lived in.......her presence was injury.... her lack of social decorum was insult......
no I wasn't placing the expense of the dinner before anyone. I was indeed horrified for those that were attending that had been raised in a more socially modest world..... their enjoyment of the occasion was ruined by this woman's actions. It has been 8 years now and I STILL hear about how horrible her actions were from these relatives......
