Selling my 1964 Fender Jaguar.
We were raising two kids and needed the money.

You weren't ready to meet him.Timing is all.I got early acceptance at the state flagship school. It's also were my parents and grandparents, aunts and uncles all went. I didn't try to get into a more prestigious school and I feel like it kept me back professionally (although I've still had some success). I wish I had at least tried. My ACT was pretty out of the park, and I had a great GPA, so I think I could have done it, but I'll never know.
Also, I mentioned in another thread, there was a period when my current DH and I were both in the same city and single at the same time about decade ago. I wish I had met him then! We were both online dating too, but were using different sites. At least Tinder brought us together at last
What a sad story.I'm sorry life is like this for you.Hugs.....I regret being such a goodie goodie in high school. I was in a lot of clubs and stuff but quiet, didn’t date or go out. Then when I was diagnosed with cancer and had a hysterectomy at age 21 I shut myself away farther feeling that no man would want me because I couldn’t have kids. I totally surrounded my self with only my family and gained a lot of weight making myself more unattractive. Now I am 60, in poor health and never married. I probably should have had some counseling along the way. I am still very close with my siblings, nieces and nephews. I was a teacher so I have had many children in my life just not mine.
Thank you but I ‘m lonely but okay. I loved teaching first grade and was always surrounded by nieces, nephews and great nieces and nephews. I was the oldest of 8 so lots to spoil! I am lucky that my siblings and I are very close.Ever starting to smoke

If this helps: In my culture, the bride and groom walk down the aisle together. The parents exchange greetings with the young couple at the beginning of the ceremony at the entrance to the church, but the walk down to the altar is together as a couple. I think if maybe you and your dad had a hug or a moment before the ceremony, that maybe was sufficient.Not having my Dad walk me down the aisle. It was a very, VERY small wedding. We didn't even have music. That's not his kind of thing, not my kind of thing so I told him he didn't have to if he didn't want to. Now that he is gone, I often wonder if it bothered him or if he was appreciative. I never thought to ask before.
