toh, I understand your pain and frustration but take your focus off xh/ow. It will get you in trouble again and you don't want to go there. Your x is not the one to make sure you can't be at the wedding. There are plenty of xcouples that attend the same functions at the same time. The reason you cannot go is the RO.
Did you ever say where your own family is? siblings? parents?
Perhaps the bride and groom will take some time during their day to meet with you somewhere so you can congratulate them and see them in person.
btw, I have that same problem with the box I type a post inside, after a few lines it starts flipping all over and i can't see what I type. Maybe it's the DB way of shortening posts!?

hi WCW, you are still here? How are you? I will not get into trouble again. Learned my lesson the first time. That is why I'm not going to the wedding, too afraid that OW and or X would try to get me into trouble. I would feel safer if OW was not invited.
My mom is in nearby town and so is brother, have a sister and brother about 45 miles away.
thanks for your wisdom

Yup, I'm around a little yet. Things with my M and H are better, heading in a positive direction IMO.
The hardest part for me was carving out my own life that didn't rely on or depend on H. We had done so much together and the memories haunted me every time I did something. I had to force myself to activities, and activity breeds activity so the ball started rolling.
How's your painting projects?

I'm happy for you WCW. Glad things are going well. Since I moved and the paints are all packed away still I haven't done anything. There is no room in this tiny house to do anything anyway. I do keep busy in my garden and doing yard work. And I'm out to new guy's place helping him on the farm alot. For the most part I don't have too much idle time.

Yeeaaa!!! I'm officially off probation. Got the notice from the courts today. I'm released and the case has be expunged!! Out with the old and in with the new.
And I've decided that as much as I want to go to neices wedding it hurts way too bad. OW was at the bachlorette party and it's pretty obvious from the pictures on FB that I've been totally replaced. So as my good freind told me the other night. It's time to stop looking back, and time to move forward. So onward I will try to go....

Lets see, what's first. Well I start school on the 23rd. I guess I am going to be an Accountant when I grow up, or at least try to be. I'm excited and scared as H*ll!
D19 moved to the big city a couple weeks ago to start out on her own and start her new life. I'm excited for her, scared for her, worried, happy, and miss her dearly. But it is so time for her to get out of here and find something new.
This week I leave for the Ozarks. Spending a few days with BF, his sister and husband. Looking foward to getting away for some R&R.
Craziest thing I've ever done, but love it. D19 and I got matching tattoos for her birthday. She has begged and begged so I finally gave in. I designed them and they are pretty neat. They stand for courage, never forget, hope, and where ever she goes I go with her.
Was going to sign up for motorcycle class recently. But decided to wait till spring. Want my own bike. Can't wait!!!!
And last but not least. I and two of my ex-sister in laws (3 ex wives of the family) are going to Vegas in a couple months. Never flew before and have always wanted to go to Vegas! I'm so EXCITED!!!
So that's all thats been going on in my world. The day I shut the door to the past, my new life begun!!!!
PS, today would have been my 24th Wedding Anniversary, my how life changes....

Have a wonderful time in the Ozarks. I live just below them in the Ouachitas. They will be beautiful, but watch out for the humidity if you are not used to it.
It sounds like you have your head in the right place, and who knows what tomorrow may bring?
