Mandee answered Monday August 2 2004, 10:55 pm: First of all I am so sorry about the divorce!! And babe, no no no this is not your fault at all!!!! What makes you feel like you've been a bad name to the family? Hunnie, I am sure your family loves you! Even if they don't show it all of the time, but they do. You shouldn't feel guilty. No one is perfect, trust me your cousin is not perfect, maybe your mom is more connected with her than you. And that hurts. You need to calmly talk to your mom about the wedding again. She can either be there for you and try to be supportive and understanding or she will just blow you off. If she does, she is obviously having some issues right now...maybe you guys aren't that close and that is why she is so distant from your feelings. Whatever it may be you want to at least try to be there for her, and maybe she'll be there for you. Best of luck to you hun! Love you! -Mandee [ Mandee's advice column | Ask Mandee A Question ]
