Couples want to make sure that their wedding day will go according to their plan, but when the groom ‘humiliates’ the bride in front of everyone, she may end up wondering whether she’d made the right choice. One bride who just experienced an embarrassing moment in front of their guests took to Slate’s Dear Prudence advice column and explained that her husband had ‘completely ruined’ their wedding day.
“I got married just before Christmas and am hoping to be divorced or annulled by the end of January,” she wrote. “I never cared about getting married, but I wasn’t opposed to it. So when my boyfriend proposed in 2020, we decided to go for it,” she continued. “We each took on about half the responsibility for organizing the wedding, but I think I was pretty reasonable about compromise when he really wanted something.
My only hard-and-fast rule was that he would not rub cake in my face at the reception. “Being a reasonable man who knows me well, he didn’t. Instead, he grabbed me by the back of the head and shoved my head down into it. It was planned since the cake was destroyed, and he had a bunch of cupcakes as backup.”
When she told her husband she was “done,” she received phone calls from their loved ones pleading with her to give him another opportunity. “I left. I told him the next day that we were done. That is something I stand by. “The trouble is, over the holidays, everyone has gathered to convince me that I should give him another chance,” she said.
“They claim I’m overreacting because of my troubles since I’m claustrophobic from a car accident years ago, and I panicked when I was put into a cake and held there.” They also keep telling me that I love him – even though I don’t – and that he loves me, which means not giving up at the first hurdle.
I don’t want to, but everyone is so united and certain that I’m making a huge mistake that I’m wondering whether they’re right.” People responded quickly to her article, with one saying, “He didn’t simply not respect her one boundary, he picked the worst, most forceful manner conceivable to breach it.” Another person wrote:
“Everyone is convinced you’re making a mistake, but they aren’t the ones who have to wake up every day with a man whose behavior completely turns them off.” You are. So all you have to do is listen to yourself.” “It’s not even a charming splat of cake on the nose,” a third claimed, “he pushed her head into it and humiliated her.” What are your thoughts on the matter?
