Can it ever work?

All I want at this point is to have nothing to do with 24-year-old 2b-SD, who is extremely hostile towards me. She has shown that it is not just that she doesn't like me, she actually actively DISLIKES me and is looking for whatever "proof" she can ferret out, twist, or fabricate to support her opinion that I am a horrible person and her dad should not be with me (Note: she is the ONLY one in both of our worlds who feels this way about our relationship.

Well, the meeting with the 24-year-old adult soon-to-be SD did not go well

Well, the meeting with the 24-year-old adult soon-to-be SD did not go well, as I expected after her postponing it for 2 months. She apparently has been taking offense at pretty much anything I say the few times we have been around each other. It is like she made up her mind a long time ago (remember this has been going on for 3 years) that she not only doesn't like me, she actually dislikes me, so even innocuous comments I might say in a conversation, she takes offense to.

HELP!!!! Am I crazy or is this a snub?

HELP!!!! Am I crazy or is this a snub? I have another question for this community. My soon-to-be SD (she is 24 years old) is still really uncomfortable around me, so much so that she won't even make eye contact with me. This has been going on for 3 years now. Her dad and I have been engaged now for almost a year. After much urging from her father, I wrote soon-to-be SD a really nice, kind, heartfelt letter inviting her to meet with me so that we could try to begin to establish a rapport.

Spoiled adult daughter

Seems like a lot of you have the same situation as me: a spoiled adult daughter whose father doesn't want to admit that he has spoiled her. My situation is so similar. I am engaged to a wonderful man. We both have adult children, me two, a 27 year-old young woman and a 23 year-old young man, and my fiance's one 24 year-old daughter. My fiance has been a widower for 13 years. We have been dating for close to 3 years now and got engaged a few moths ago.
