I was getting married on September 22, 2007. I called my father to let him know that I would need help buying my wedding dress and for him to be a big part in my wedding because he has never been there for me before. My father has been out of my life since i was 4, but I wanted him to be there on my wedding day to walk me down the aisle like all father's do for their daughters.
The day I called him to let him know I was getting married, I asked him if he could give me some money to help pay for my wedding dress. That was the only thing I asked his help on and he told me that if he had enough money left over from redoing his wreck room he would give me some.
Well I never got my hopes up for him helping me buy my wedding dress, but I still wanted him to be at my wedding so he could walk me down the aisle and give me away to my future husband.
When you are a little girl, you think about how your wedding day will be. Getting married in a church and having your father walk you down the aisle and everybody looking at how beautiful you are. Every little girl dreams about the most important day in their lives.
The day before my wedding I call my father back and I ask him if he is coming to my wedding to walk me down the aisle and give me away to my future husband. What came out of his mouth next is something a girl does not dream about when they are little.
My father told me he was not going to walk me down the aisle. That is a feeling I will never forget. The feeling of your father telling you no he will not walk you down the aisle on your wedding day is a feeling I cannot describe unless you know what I felt.
This is when I made the decision to have nothing to do with my father ever again. I want him to know how bad it hurts for someone to tell him no or not be their in his life when he needs me the most. I want him to feel the pain of rejection as well.
The dream I dream-th when I was a little girl about my father walking me down the aisle had suddenly disappeared. I cried all day and all night before my wedding. No girl who is about to get married should be crying the day before her wedding from being hurt so bad by her father telling her no about walking her down the aisle.
My wedding was successful and I did not think about my father at all on my wedding day. I wanted to make sure that my wedding was perfect and nothing was going to ruin it for me. Not even my father.
My husband and I got married on September 22, 2007. The wedding went just the way we wanted it to no mess ups or no crying or anything. Well except the crying of my family and his family because of the happy moment.
I know in the future that my father will not be a part of his grand children's lives because I do not want them to be hurt by him like I have been my entire life. I will not put my children through that. My father is the one that is going to miss out on everything that has to do with my life not me or my children.
