I just got off the phone with my mom and I'm kind of upset. I know she's still upset about the Doug & Brandon thing and even though she didn't mention it, it is still there. We were talking about wedding plans (we visited Doug's aunt & uncle today) and she started telling me about my cousin and his fiancee. Then she said how right they were for each other and also mentioned another couple that they know and how right they were for each other also. Do you think she said how right Doug & I were together? NO. Seriously, I am going to have to elope now. I was trying to tell her about what Doug's aunt was saying about a wedding and she was barely listening. How terrible will it be if my mom won't help me plan my wedding?

I know exactly how you feel about this. I hate being in the middle of feuds, especially between two people that I really care about.
You know how my mother is, and you may know that Josh isn't very good at holding his tongue. Time and time again they get into it and then I'm always the one that gets blamed by my mother when Josh won't appologize. Then, when things do calm down she starts acting like "Poor Carmen and her husband that needs anger management! I guess I let her down raising her, because she picked such a loser!"
Of course this behavior makes ME yell at HER! Then it's "What did he do to my sweet little baby!"
It is an incredibly vicious cycle. I've made Josh appologize for things that weren't his fault so many times that he gets mad at me when I ask him to bite his tongue.
I guess I don't have any advice except ride it out.
And I think you and Doug make a GREAT couple.
Hope things get better soon.
Thanks for that. Doug says he doesn't plan on apologizing to my brother. I have asked that the two of them be civil to each other in the future, but we'll see. My mom still wants to talk to Doug and get his side of the story though.
