Ok my dilemna is this:
My mother is a devout Catholic who ended up turning me away from religion because she was so stircit, intense, outspoken, pushy and did nothing but make me fear the end of the world throughout my childhood and teen years. We get along but really do not talk to eachother as I have quite a bit of resentment towards her. Its doubtful that she knows how much she has hurt me...
I want nothing more than to marry on a cruise ship by a non-demonational minister with my fiance. It would be so much simpler and its what we both want.
But my mother expects me to marry in the catholic church and go through all of that hassle which I dont even believe in, in the first place.
She is old and I know she means well so I dont want to hurt her, but I feel guilty putting my fiance through all this religious stuff he doesnt want to do. And I feel like a coward doing things just for her.
What would you do? What you want? or what your mother wants? And why?
