RE: 6 mo marriage--do I get my present back?

This happened to me. My ex's redneck sister (the family was nice but she was trash) got divorced after 6 months. I gave her a nice platter from Neimans... I didn't get it back and didn't expect it back. BUT the least Redneck Paige could have done was send me a thankyou note, which she never did.

I was shocked when I heard the news of the divorce, but I'm over it. (Almost.)

Thanks for all your replies. Upon reflection I realize that whatever the rules of etiquette might say, this is a painful situation for all. I wasn't invited to the wedding (held in Europe) but DH and I got an announcement afterward. I didn't feel obligated to send a gift, but I sent one because I do wish them the best. I don't expect the gift to be returned, and I think what I would really like is some kind of an explanation of how this could happen, yet I also absolutely feel that the couple doesn't owe anyone an explanation.

My husband has a friend who lived with his girlfriend for two years before getting married, and that marriage lasted less than a year. I just don't understand how a couple could apparently be so close, yet not be able to last until their first anniversary. I suppose there are more extreme cases out there--people who live together for years, have children, then get married, and--kaput!

And I will live with that lack of understanding. It isn't any of my business.

Still, I am left wondering--how could this happen?
