A woman had shared on Reddit, that she caught her MIL, while she was wearing her wedding dress. She stated that she wanted a new dress, or she will show the pictures of her trying the dress.
“So, I’m getting married to my fiance soon. I bought my wedding dress weeks ago. His my (FMIL) kept pestering me about trying it on but I firmly refused. I finally shut it down after she offered me 100$ to let her try it on. Her reasoning for presisting so much? She says it’s because of her “love” for wedding dresses and her obsession with them.” the OP had started to her story.
Then when she arrived back to her home, her fiance tried to block her way to her room, as his mother was trying the dress of the bride. She gave her three days to pay the money for dress, or get her a new one. “Fast forward to yesterday, I came home from work early and I found my fiance at home. He freaked out after seeing me and tried to prevent me from going into my room while trying to text somebody on his phone. I opened the door and was shocked to see his mom standing there wearing my dress. I instantly pulled out my phone and took a photo of her in it. Sheand my fiance freaked out after I told her that she needed to pay me for a new dress in 3 days or else I’ll show the whole family the photo.”
Then came the argument. “She started crying and then left and my fiance blew up at me saying I can’t be serious and that I overreacted because his mom just wanted to try the dress on, no harm done. But I refused to listen to him because in my opinion, the dress should only be worn by the bride and the bride only. quite frankly, I felt disgusted looking at the dress again, I don’t want it anymore. And so I think it’s fair that she pays me after she ruined it for me. He yelled at me. and told me to wake up and stop treating his mom like that as if she was an enemy. We had a fight after he failed to get me to back down and he’s been staying with his mom since then.”
Here are some of the comments of the redditors.
“NTA, but are you sure you want to marry this guy? He stood guard outside your bedroom so that his mother could try on your wedding dress. Do you think he will ever stand up for you against her?”
“Send the photo to everyone invited…with an announcement that regretfully, you will no longer be participating in the wedding, but you wish the couple the best.”
What do you think? Let us know.
