scott evil, you are a damn good man. I hope I, and all my friends, end up with someone as thoughtful and loyal as you.
Hey, everyone’s entitled to their beliefs. Obviously you didn’t want them to go anyway? So who gives a damn about what they think? Obviously you do.
Yes, everyone’s entitled to their beliefs. Obviously, these people believe that they should do their best to make what should be a happy day not so happy.
Yes, obviously scott does give a damn what they think. I wonder why that may be? Maybe because of the way they treat his partner? Maybe because of hatefull things they’ve said to him in the past? Maybe because of hatefull things they’d like to say to him in the future?
Good luck scott evil, and congrats to you and your bf.
I agree with the poster who suggested you print this entire thread up and send it to them, so they can see how many people think they’re complete asshats!
And what a great idea for greeting cards!
Damn.
My sincere and heartfelt condolences from one son of verminous parents to another.
Life only gets better.
Remember that. Lord knows I try.

Good for you. Don’t know what else to say.
One more beacon of darkness in the world to make you wonder. Scott, I’m just glad you and your intended will shine enough to make up for them.
Oh, and the TDHA is still open if you want to do a post-marriage tour. 
I believe in this case we need a new postal term
“Return to Asshat”
Sorry you have to deal, happy that you are getting married. Enjoy your life together, as you say, the best revenge is living well.

That’s fucking shitty. Please try not to let it get you down.
I’m for simply writing “REFUSED” on any future corespondence. Why is it the people who oppose homosexuality have to be so blasted obnoxious about it?
Because these people weren’t sitting around holding their beliefs; they took deliberate steps and paid money to be rude, insulting and obnxious, especially since they were Jeremy’s parents. Look, it’s easy for our parents to push our buttons – they installed them and they know where the back up buttons are, try as we may to remove them.
Scott, I’m sorry this happened, and may you and Jeremy know many, many years of happiness.

I just simply cannot comprehend that someone can lovingly create a life, carry him inside her body, nurture him, raise him and then completely cut him out of her existence simply because he has found someone that he loves.
I don’t know how loving his mother was before she knew he was gay but to completely ignore someone who was physically a part of you simply because he is happy is one of the most incomprehensible things I can imagine.
Good luck and best wishes, scott.
I am so sorry that SE’s partner had to be born to such a pair of self-righteous, Bible-poisoned monkeyfuckers. They don’t deserve to have kids at all if that’s how they treat them.
I feel even more lucky that my family and my partner’s family completely embrace us and our relationship, except for his paternal grandparents, who we never told and who have both passed on since last Christmas.
scott, I respect the decision you have made, but I will suggest considering another alternative. Here are two stories.
Thirty-seven years ago, my cousin married a black woman. His parents refused to come to the wedding or even speak to her. He and his wife would have been morally justified in cutting off contact with them. Instead, they carried on a campaign for several years to get the parents to accept them. Ultimately, they succeeded. The family became united in a way that benefited all four of them, their siblings, and the rest of the extended family.
Five years ago, My friend’s daughter married a Korean immigrant. His parents cut off contact with him because she wasn’t Korean. They live on opposite coasts. Contact has never been re-established, to the detriment of all – particularly the parents. There’s no doubt that his parents made their bed and deserve to lie in it, but it would be better for all if he could help them accept the relationship. Given the geography and the parents’ stubborness, this doesn’t seem to be in the cards.
In your case, your “in-laws” don’t deserve your support and acceptance. But, you might consider trying to give it to them anyhow, as a favor to them.
That is truly dreadful and hateful. I’m so sorry. Congratulations on your marriage – I hope you have many years of utter bliss.
A note to scott evil: just remember that the best revenge is living well.
So go forth and live very well, and when you realize that your life is making your in-laws writhe in anger and outrage… smile.
I just can’t understand it. I love my son so much, and all I want in my life is to see him happy. Parental love is a kind of love that puts the child before the parent. If my Riley falls in love with an 8 headed humpfalumpf/human hibrid whose parents are Ann Coulter and Charles Manson, I’ll have one question for him. “Are you in love”? Thats all that really matters.
First, my best wishes (again) on your upcoming marriage. I am so happy for you two.
Second, you have every right to feel the kind of vitriol and disgust you do at that card – I cannot think, offhand, of a more obnoxious way to insult and offend someone supposedly near and dear to you.
But, as December and others have said, don’t burn any bridges. You two have it in you to rise above their level of bigotry and return acceptance and caring for rejection and hatred. That is not easy, but it is possible. And, as December said, the eventual rewards can be great.
And all it takes now is refusing to react in hurt and anger. After the wedding, consider together writing a letter that is assertive rather than aggressive – makes no reference to the amount of hurt they purposely caused, but rather says that you two are disappointed that they’ve cut off all relations with their son and his husband, and that the door is always open for them to change their mind.
And on this occasion, I want to share a little chuckle with you that has helped brighten my life – I was on the phone with Siege and we were discussing matters online, posters that frustrated us and posters that made us glad to be a part of things, etc. – and (remembering the 1960s pop-music duo Chad and Jeremy) when we got to badchad, I remarked to Siege that I much preferred jeremy evil!! 
That and trying to limit the visits from the in-laws…
