    Hello everyone, it's Charlotte Dobre here and today I want to talk about a difficult topic that some people may have experienced during their wedding planning process: called off weddings.
    Weddings are supposed to be a celebration of love, commitment, and the beginning of a new chapter in your life. However, sometimes things don't work out as planned, and weddings can get called off for a variety of reasons.
    It's a heartbreaking experience for everyone involved, from the couple to the families and friends who had been eagerly awaiting the big day. The excitement and anticipation of the wedding turn into disappointment, heartache, and confusion.
    However, as devastating as it may seem at the time, it's important to remember that sometimes things happen for a reason. It's better to call off a wedding than to go through with it when you know deep down that it's not the right decision.
    It takes a lot of courage to make that call, and it's okay to take the time you need to heal and move forward. It may be difficult, but remember that your happiness and well-being come first.
    To those who have gone through a called-off wedding, know that you're not alone. There are support systems out there, and you will get through it. Take the time to heal, focus on yourself, and eventually, when the time is right, love will come knocking at your door again.
    Thanks for watching, and I'll see you in the next video.

    For everyone wondering, the red dress bride called off the engagement and dumped that walking red flag. She didn't update the original post, but she posted in an advice subreddit not long after her other post, asking redditors what she should wear on a date, because she hadn't dated in six years. And yes, people said she should wear red on her date.

      @@frigginresulrum one of my well now ex friends thinks that way. he thought he was such a catch. i've known him since high school. he's twice divorced, cheated on the first with the 2nd who used him for a green card and she left him for someone else. then after years of being single he met his now ex whom he shares kids with. she was a newly widow with a baby. he really shouldn't have dated her she needed more time but over the years i grew to love her. she's a very awesome woman. he on the other hand is a mamas boy who hasn't worked in 7ish years. they had to move about a year after he got laid off, he was still collecting unemployment because the state offers unemployment for a year if you're in school and complete a degree or certificate. So he had some income, well they had a 5yo and her older son and moved to a very different area which although they could afford didn't have the same jobs he was looking for. he expected with his AA degree to get a job paying $100k+ a year like he was making before but in a totally different field with no experience in it. He has 1 excuse after another for not getting a job. So she's been supporting their family which now includes another child. all of them have autism and the youngest has physical disabilities. she's a year older than my son and didn't walk until recently while my son was walking really early. his girlfriend and I talk often and she was like, i'm happy for you but also a bit jealous because my youngest isn't walking. aww, anyway, she found out that he was using the money he was getting from selling his season tickets to a football team to pay for his credit card but she's the one who paid for the tickets since he no longer has unemployment. he was supposed to sell them and give her the money to cover the cost of the monthly fee and then keep the difference. So she's now in debt and just had enough. She said that she asked him, when are you going to get a job, he said I need time. she said how much time, he said years. It was 6ish years at that point. So she was like, I want to break up. Oh he was also angry that she wouldn't service him if you get what I mean, he has poor hygiene, like won't bathe for 2 weeks easy. i know he's depressed but if you want some, take a friggen shower, brush your teeth and woo her a little. So he called me to tell me that she agreed to have an open relationship because he has needs and she won't fulfill them. he's so gross but he thinks he's a good catch and a nice guy. he's a loyal friend but even then it's only if you go along with his narcissistic ways, if you disagree with him you're the bad guy, so i'm not just friends with her. she's the more reasonable one anyway. he isn't even a good parent, he parents by yelling at the kids from the couch, he never speaks to the son, like how was your day, how was school, just, don't do that, don't touch that, stop doing xyz. and then he wonders why the kid hates him. i told her years ago, you need to talk to him about how he treats your oldest. he seemed to care when he was a baby/toddler but when he reached about 6 he did nothing but yell at him. anyway, he's a "nice guy".

    A historical fun fact for that "Purity Groom": The white dress at weddings never stood for purity, it was just a trend created by Queen Victoria. White was a colour only the super-rich wore to showcase their wealth because of how easily it could get dirty, brides usually wore their favourite (sometimes most expensive) dress. A white wedding dress signifying purity is a wives' tale mixed with colour association.
    Long story short: White Wedding Dresses are just a 200-year-old trend

    We can call OP dumb for giving his honest opinion and not realizing wedding dresses aren’t returnable. But when are we going to stop excusing adults who say what they want and then throw a fit when they get it? I too am guilty of wanting my partner to know exactly what I’m thinking, of asking for an opinion when all I really want is a compliment. But it gets to a point where you’re just a grown person setting traps and tests to catch your partner out.

    For the guy obsessed with purity: Red is a traditional wedding color in many countries outside of the US. China, India, Taiwan, Korea, Pakistan, Vietnam, Singapore just to name a few. Red wedding colors often represent joy, prosperity, luck, and fertility for the future of the marriage. It's a color to bless the future of the marriage not to represent the "status" of the bride.

      @@blakelay I agree with you. Also, something to point out just how ignorant he is, white never symbolized purity. Queen Victoria started the white wedding dress trend for two reasons, 1. To revive the lace industry, 2. to show off wealth. Only the rich people could afford to wear white. Working class people would never buy something you can’t wear again. White is very difficult to keep clean and it yellows with age. It was the ultimate symbol of privilege and wealth, to buy a dress you will only wear once. The tradition in the West before that was to just wear your best Church dress (whatever colour you had) to your wedding.

      @@blakelay yes, it’s also unfortunate that the trend stuck this deep and became some kind of stupid symbol of moral judgment on the bride. I have nothing against white, but I see some Western brides wanted to wear an actual colour (as they felt white wasn’t their style) and their families shamed them for wanting to be “weird” and not follow the white “tradition.” Like, excuse me? What tradition? It was a status symbol, and after the invention of photography, white photographed better as the quality of photography really sucked. People wanted nice wedding photographs. However, we have great cameras nowadays to preserve memories. Wear whatever dress you like. It will photograph just fine.
      And if any of you bought a white dress you can’t wear again, you can always repurpose it if it’s not too voluminous and if you have a spirit that loves to explore arts and crafts. Dye is your best friend if the material is okay with water. Rit Fabric Dye’s website has colour formulas to get the exact colour you want. And a tailor can shorten it if it’s too long for events you go to.

    As someone with autism, the person who was asked to pay for the ramp at the wedding venue being told by their family that their existence has been painful for them is like worst fears confirmed stuff. They've pretty much been told "you've always been a pain to be around because you're autistic so why can't you just do this thing for us?" and if anyone that close to me ever said that to me I would cut them out of my life immediately and probably need years of therapy to reverse the hit to my mental health that would cause knowing that my biggest fear (that being around me is a hassle) was true.

      Bonus points for them basically saying it was a curse on THEM to be around OP's autism and then calling OP an ableist because they weren't able to hire an extremely expensive contractor who would be able to make this ridiculous demand work, as they were actively trying.
      Also the bridesmaid who had the solution offered on a platter when they said they could get a removable one and she went and decided she "deserved better" like the bitch couldn't possible accept ONE temptorary ramp, at an otherwise fully wheelchair accessible's house and was demanding, herself, that a contractor builts one just for her.

    • @M_SC
      @M_SC Před 4 dny +1

      A little mental health exercise is to ask yourself “so, what?” About your worst fears. Because it’s not the worst fears
      But the unspoken assumptions connected to them that are painful. One can make them hurt less by exposing what they are and verifying which ones are actually totally unlikely to be true. For example, “let’s say I’m a burden on people, so, what?… that would mean other people actually don’t like me…. Doesn’t it? it doesn’t, it means they like me but to be with me costs them money and effort. I have a friend like that too, I like her but she only likes expensive food when I’m happy with a cheese sandwich every meal. Hanging out with her costs me money I don’t really like to spend. I like her more at work where she doesn’t coats me money. But I do like her, I just don’t like her food and spending money on that stuff. So my friends probably like me even if I cost them money. No one likes to spend money on things they didn’t choose, it doesn’t mean they don’t like me as a person.”
      Once you do that, you feel much better. Do it to yourself. You don’t need a therapist.

If I want a compliment I’ll ask something like “doesn’t it make me look pretty?” He definitely didn’t need to go in depth like that it it was definitely harsh but her reaction was a lot.

There are ways to say you do not care for something without dissolving the bride in to tears. If someone asks for an opinion about a dress do not make it about the bride's body type or the fact that it is white and you know bride is not a virgin. I cannot believe this is still an issue.

      I’m really glad to be able to see y’all’s thoughts. I was thinking if I was to ever be in a wheelchair I would feel the same way. I’m not in one though so I was hoping I would see someone who knows first hand. I think it depends on personality. The bride to be and some of the bridesmaids seemed snobby and manipulative. Hence why they were trying to rush the wedding before a prenup could be signed.
      I’m a support staff for individuals with disabilities. And so I was absolutely sickened by what the cousins want to be bride said to her future husbands cousin. The people I support are all so different only one has been in s wheel chair and it happened gradually over time. We had to help hunt down a portable wheelchair ramp for the last apartment he stayed in because you know apartment complex’s are strict especially when it comes to building. I was skeptical of the ramp at first because I had at that point in my life never been around a portable wheelchair ramp but it’s soooo freaking cool that they have them and are coming up with more and more tools to make peoples lives better. I wish the best of luck and happiness to y’all. Keep on being the amazing people you are!! 😊

      The fact that they don’t like the ramp and saying that they deserve better is the worst part for me, sure it is only a temporary ramp, but if it does the job then what’s the problem? You’ll be on it for all of a few seconds, if it is such an eyesore then they can take it away once the wheelchair is up. Does this wheelchair user expect every building she wants to go into to to be altered with ramps that are to the standard she “deserves”?

    I think the worst part of the first story was that the bride spent 9k on a gown on HIS credit card without having mentioned anything about it.

That paired with her running away and blocking the guy just smacks of immaturity and communication issues.

    Something I had to learn about with my husband, when I ask how I look, he'll either tell me why he thinks it doesn't look right on me or he straight up doesn't like an article of clothing. It's nuanced in my brain but his words are direct and to the point. For example, I asked how he liked a sweater on me and he said "I don't like that color" so I specified "does the color look bad on me?" He said "no, I just don't like that kind of yellow". For context it was a mustard yellow sweater that I got from my mom.
    Point is, I get both sides but also I think it would help if they figured out their communication styles.

    I was someone who tried on several dresses and even thought I had found the one I was absolutely going to wear when I had just a few left to try on. The bridal dress attendee (I’m so sorry I don’t know their official title, but they are so wonderful) was excited with me and we tried on a couple more that weren’t as good as the one I was certain I was getting. I had just one more dress to try on. She said we might as well because even though we already had one picked out, it couldn’t hurt and worst case would only solidify my original choice for me. When I tell you that as soon as I saw myself in that very last dress, as soon as I saw the faces of my parents, especially my dad, and my maid of honor we all knew it was THE ONE. I can’t explain it, it was very similar in style to the other one we had picked, but this one had sleeves and something about the way it fit on my body was straight up magical. It looked like it was made for me and since it was the very last dress and was almost like the throw away “it’ll just solidify your other choice” I stand by to this day that it was absolutely meant to be. You never know how much your ideas will change once you start to actually try those dresses on and see yourself in them and see the people you love looking at you in total silence with tears in their eyes because THAT dress is The One.

    I got married this year (July 30, 2023) to the guy I've been with for 9 years. He has always been super supportive of me not feeling comfortable in skirts and dresses (I'm nonbinary, though not many people aside from him are aware of that, and super gendered things just give me the ick most of the time) and he didn't even expect me to wear a dress at our wedding. I did because I knew it would make him happy as he's always thought I look amazing in them, it was lavender -my favorite color- and just a cute summery dress I ordered from Free People and slightly altered myself ($128 plus shipping and like $15 for the flats I wore and thread for the alteration). I got a few hair pieces that couldn't have been more than $16 all together, and I got my shoes (black flats) at Wal-Mart. We got married on my mom's front lawn next to their cow field and only had about 10 people there. We had our reception at the hotel my uncle works at, maybe 60-70 people attended, and my uncle and grandmother paid for us to stay in a suite there. It was a beautiful little thing and maybe cost everyone $3000 in total so don't let anyone tell you money is what makes a perfect wedding day.
    Bonus brag: not a SINGLE person commented on my dress not being a wedding dress, or the dress color not being white - but that may have had something to do with some of them expecting black and how well the lavender went with my blue hair. 😂 The hubby absolutely loved my dress and has periodically just asked me to wear it around the house for him 😂💜

I’m Indian, and I had NO idea that red dresses were frowned upon and meant what they do (did?) for Western society. Also, white only became popular in the west because Queen Victoria made it so, not because of some purity thing. Historically, Western society as well donned different colors for weddings. I know the Romans would wear yellow/orange, because brides were thought to be the flames of the hearth and would bring light into the home, and more Christianized societies would wear a light blue for Mary.

    I’m actually *applauding* that first man for even having that much insight and opinion on the wedding theme/design. The man’s feedback was not only honest but *constructive* criticism comparing the dress to the bride’s theme.
    Look, if you ask for someone’s honest opinion, then the filter comes off, don’t get upset when he gives you what you verbally asked for. If you want the quick compliment then just throw out a general “isn’t it pretty?”

    When I went to buy my wedding dress with my mom, she kept saying over and over "You're not getting a white dress, right?" and I KNEW it wasn't a purity thing because she's not like that so finally when I picked the dress, she said, "What color?" and I said, "Off white" (that slightly bone color that's not stark white) and she said, "Oh thank goodness, I thought you were going to get a dress that was going to compete with you for who is paler." So there's that. The whiter the dress, the whiter you look. And I'm starting at shade 0 as it is. I wish she had just told me why up front because I had this whole speech about how many guys I slept with worked out in my head. But it wasn't that. I'm just too pale for white.

    The last guy needs to realize that, these days, the chances of a woman in a white wedding dress being a virgin are very small. And most people know that. There is no deceit going on whatsoever.
    I can understang some people valuing virginity in a future spouse. But he already decided to marry her, so he should get over it already. If it was really such a problem for him, why would he even ask to marry her in the first place?
    (Also side note: For any men who need to hear this, if you expect a chaste woman, you better be chaste yourself. No, it's not "different for men". Chaste women want a chaste man. If you won't be chaste, then chaste women won't want you. Just saying.)

      People should also know that white dress=virgin is a myth and was never the intention of a white dress. It's from Queen Victoria's wedding, and the white and lace is just a flex about having a super expensive dress you can only wear once, because at the time it was almost impossible to return whites to their whitest. It caught on because people wanted to be like the Queen, before that you would just wear a nice dress that you might have already owned.

    I’ve heard that first one before, and this is my take:
    The fiancé was super duper smart for asking if she wanted a real opinion and critique, or if she was just excited and wanted him to say he loves it. He clearly understands that sometimes when people ask what you think they’re really just looking for affirmation so kudos to him for that. She told him she wanted a critical opinion, not affirmation, so it’s really not fair for her to then get upset when that’s exactly what he gives her.
    Had he not clarified what she wanted before she tried it on then I could get behind the “dude, she clearly just wants you to tell her how beautiful she is” thought, but he specifically made sure he wasn’t making that mistake. At a certain point she has to be a grown up; she asked for a totally honest critique, and he gave one, he can’t be called a crap bad for not sharing her opinion.

      Exactly ! He was not the stupid one, and for Charlotte to also say he is shows she supports manipulative behavior.
      Be a grown up, be an adult. If you want affirmation, you do not ask for an opinion. Tell me you’re manipulative without telling me you’re manipulative.
      The bride should never have anyone! The groom is not wrong nor an idiot. In fact, he’s more rational then even Charlotte. Says enough. Yep, she’s got a potato brain for sure.
      If you ask for an opinion when you just want to feel good, you need to close your mouth back and do some rethinking and learning some life lessons. Affirmation or good comments does not mean automatically ask for an opinion.
      It shouldn’t even be considered if someone asks an opinion, what are they really asking. If anyone gets mad after asking for an opinion, even at a funeral, then you are the one in full wrong! Nobody else. Reading a Webster dictionary isn’t hard folks, opinion does not mean compliment! Reality and logic!

Also, I would try to not put him in a position that could cause an issue. For example, I would get multiple outfits, then do a “fashion show” and he’d rank the outfits.

      While I agree in this instance that concerned me, I don't agree that "couples fight" when they communicate. You can disagree, yes, but fighting... no. I have been married to my husband for 6 years, together for 12, and we have NEVER fought. We disagree, we share our sides, we make concessions, and a hell of a lot of the time we stop and go "Ah, we're not finding a middle ground this time. Okay, agree to disagree! Whatcha wanna eat?"
      But, for me, the MOST concerning fact of that story was that she ran away AND BLOCKED HIM? What kind of actual fuckin' child is she? I'd be postponing the wedding indefinitely at that point if I were the OP, because, that is NOT how you handle ANY disagreement, let alone something as childish as being given two choices, making a choice, and then deciding you didn't like the outcome of that choice and blaming it on the person that gave you the OPTION for what you ACTUALLY wanted to begin with.

    I wore a burgundy wedding dress and LOVED it. And the idea of the "white dress" did NOT come from purity. It came from Queen Victoria. Back when she she was queen, wearing white was a status symbol in the aspect of how hard it was to keep clean and bc she had LOTS of money she said she wanted a white dress and didn't care if it got dirty or not not bc she could afford to just throw it out. And from there it has just grown into what it is today... Moral of the story WEAR WHATEVET COLOR YOU WANT FOR YOUR DAY!!!

In some regions in my country, at one point, brides wore black. In other regions, they wore colorfully embroided traditional dresses. The white dress idiocy came much later.... and now there are brides even who get angry if you attend her wedding in a white dress :D

She spent $9,000 of his money on a dress and didn't even ask him if spending that much was okay first. Way to start causing financial issues before you're even married. She's also TA for acting like a child when she asked for his actual opinion and then getting mad at him, leaving and blocking his number when they are supposed to be getting married because he gave it and probably didn't expect him to find out how much she spent on it. She probably figured he would just love it and then she could tell him how much it actually cost and he wouldn't be angry. How did literally everyone miss that?

Saying guys are different is more incel type bs.
    Probably has at least one of those creeps among his coworkers, so when talking about his insecurities, they fed into it and made him feel justified or something. At least, I’m hoping they just poisoned the well and he wasn’t secretly thinking about his “whore” of a gf/fiancé for 6yrs. For her sake.

    Ended the engagement and was asking for advice on what to wear to her first date with a new guy. Nothing further on this acct and posts are from 3months ago as of now. Happy for her!!

      Thank you. This is what I was looking for. I knew some good person would post the final for us.

      well surely she can't wear white on her first date with a new guy. Because she's not "pure", you know. Maybe she should wear red.

      The guy was a fool, them by his logic they would not have had sex the whole relationship till the wedding.
      Absurd.
      I'm glad she moved on to better things.
