Something old, something new
Honestly, I would never miss something like this. First of all, the fact that this therapist is a friend of the family is extremely weird; I don’t even know if it’s ethical. Second, wouldn’t you want to know what the vibe is and stir the pot a bit? I understand this is a very strange way of being the center of attention, and it’s certainly not for everyone, but if you are secure with yourself, isn’t it a bit exciting? Lol. If you enjoy weddings and like a little drama, this situation presents itself like the perfect playground to do whatever. You can spend all night ignoring them; you can try talking to them about anything, being very charming and forcing THEM into an uncomfortable position. The world is your oyster! I can’t imagine what the fomo of not going to that party feels like; in my opinion, it’s definitely way worse than going and checking the vibe for yourself. Of course it depends; if you are still really hurt and seeing your ex would catapult you to despair and no other destination, I get it; but if it’s more or less gotten over with, and it’s uncomfortable but there is a chance to turn things around, I wouldn’t hesitate to take it. To me, this is an excellent opportunity to show up and show everyone what you’re really made of (kindness and maturity lol), and to also have a great night. I mean, your ex is your ex for a reason, right? He no longer determines anything about your life.
