Ummm heah!

I just called my sister (Cancer) out about not telling me about my niece's wedding. She told me she didn't know before hand. My niece was married 2 weeks ago and I called her to congratulate her (learned on FB when the pics were posted). My niece had already told me she had told her mom and that her mom had made up an excuse to not go...and caught her mom in a lie about that! Her brothers wished they'd known (I spoke with one of my nephews tonight who said they never knew and would have wanted to be there - they live with mom and she kept it from them). WTF?

Was there no way for your niece to tell any of you directly? You're friends on FB, I'm surprised a mass-invite didn't go out with the date/time.

Your aunt (niece's mom) clearly has issues with her daughter, and your sister (as far as I can tell, I don't know the details) may very well have been as much a victim of her secret-keeping bitchery as you are. Again, I can't possibly know, I don't have all the info; I'm just laying out a reasonable possibility.

This issue really has nothing to do with Astrology; it's all personal.

*Also: why didn't your niece call you about it, if you have her number doesn't she have yours?

I completely agree with Zen on this one....

This has absolutely nothing to do with astrology ....its a personal.....smh

Lildol if you needed someone to talk to.... don't be shame. My PM box is always open....
You could have come to me, instead of wasting Zen's time.

Please forgive her Zen, she's having a rough time getting over a past relationship.

Honestly I think your niece didn't want you guys there for some reason.... and now to save face...
is throwing your sister "under the bus ". Hmmmmm.

Zen, My niece (a sag) had been engaged since July. They had not set a date. After discussing it with various members of their church they decided it was "God's will" so why wait.

According to my niece, after the decision was made, she immediately called her mom who said she couldn't make it because my nephew had a school thing to attend - personally, I think that's a lame excuse to not attend your daughter's wedding. After the wedding, my niece found out that there was no such school event but instead it was the annual neighborhood picnic that my sister thought was more important.

My niece did call me in advance, but I missed the call and I didn't call her back (I'm a Cap, what can I say). She didn't leave a message as to exact reason she was calling because she wanted to personally share the news, not just leave it on my voicemail. She also called my daughter and let her know. She didn't blast it on FB (not that I would have seen it) and only wanted family in attendance. Her fiance's family were there, his mom even flew up from AZ (my niece lives in AK).

I'm not sure my sister even told her other kids. Two of her boys are on FB but have never commented on my niece's updated status/name. My other nephew does not have a FB and, as I said, had no idea that his sister even got married.

I'm fairly certain that my sister disapproves. Regardless, I would have thought she would have called me to at least express her shock, if not her disapproval. That's what I did when I found out my daughter was pregnant and rag on her BF. It's what sisters do. So, she not only didn't tell me, but then last night she lied to me about even knowing about it.

My sister never told me she disapproves, but my niece had talked to me about her and her husband's faith and how that played into their decision to get married, and that is what my sister most likely has an issue with. I'm not one to judge another for their religious beliefs, denomination, sect or cult that they want to follow and I would not shun my own daughter for a decision she made that I didn't agree with.

Regardless of her disapproval, I do think she should have been their for her daughter. I just don't get why she lied to me about knowing.

On top of it, being a Cancer I think my sister is a little needy of and co-dependent on her children. She brought them to the Lower 48 last year just to convince them to never leave AK, thus always residing by her. She has also said she is fine if her boys never move out. My niece not only moved out of the house, but moved an hour away and NOW she's married. I think my sister wants to be in denial of the whole thing. By not talking about it, it doesn't exist.

And despite my sister not attending my niece's wedding, my niece will be attending my sister's wedding next month - a wedding in which my niece does NOT approve of. The back story on that - my sister basically met the guy in Aug and expects the guy she's been with for the past 12 years to move out by the end of this month so as not to interfere with her moving her new husband in. INSANE!
