Friend Posed As Me And Tried On My Wedding Dress, Now I Don't Want To Pay For It r/Relationships

[00:00:00] Hey what's up you're well, my name is Mark and today we're checking out some more Reddit

[00:00:09] stories and if you do love a Reddit story why not consider it a like subscribe maybe that

[00:00:14] notification bell too.

[00:00:16] Let's crack on with today's first story which comes from the M.I.

[00:00:20] The Arsole subreddit from in my feelings but I, dismay, and disbelief when I saw Serena's Instagram story, showcasing her trying on my wedding dress. I called her out for it, telling her I wasn not quite sure where the updates are going to go on this one but it's just one of those stories where I'm trying to put myself in that position she's picking up

[00:03:02] this dress and she just feels the need to pose Now you can try and counter sue due to her getting the dress altered to her without your permission, possibly causing more financial problems with any future alterations. I wouldn't pay my friend for ruining the surprise of my wedding dress that I was excited I found. I would have to take some time before I hunt for one again just to make sure there is no sour taste left in my mouth after this

[00:04:24] experience. I don't feel crazy anymore. When I saw a post I completely lost it, I cried so pathetically. I know everyone must be wondering why I'm even friends with Serena and how that reflects on me as a person too. Serena and I go a long way back. I've always known Serena as a shitty friend, but I still kept her around because of her

[00:05:40] mental health struggles.

[00:05:41] I was the only friend connected to her family, so if anything, what have been the one to sound

[00:05:47] the alarm? pay for the $900 minus the cost of dry cleaning and alterations. It's like borrowing a friend's clothing and not washing it before returning it. As I mentioned, she also tried it after a Pilates class without sharing. Lol. I think this arrangement is fair and I would not owe her anything. 3. I will end this friendship.

[00:07:00] To be honest, I think if Serena and I met as adults, we wouldn't be friends.

[00:07:04] The friendship has ran its cause and I think And basically the best outcome come from this, you're no longer friends with that person, you know, and you haven't got a dress which someone else's tried on

[00:08:21] got lipstick over. There's a little part mistletoe and was going around the party getting people to kiss. Towards the end of the night I was sitting on one of the sofas talking to their family

[00:09:43] friend, John, male 37. extremely awkward for the both of us. John kept trying to change the topic and even got up to leave but Nick seemed serious about it as his tone changed from being jokey to serious. I said to John that I don't mind kissing the side of his mouth slash cheek and he said as long as it's okay with everyone and if it makes them shut up then fine. And so I kissed him by the corner of his mouth and that was it. Everyone dispersed and Nick

[00:11:04] didn't seem bothered about it and even cheered before going back to his cousins. While driving Him being an arse hat has made you put things in perspective too. Not the arsehole. Opie says just to quickly clarify who was drinking. I had a few cocktails but wasn't completely drunk. With anything I was just a bit tipsy, though I sobered up immediately when we started arguing. I know John had at least one drink while we were talking. I don't know how many he

[00:12:20] had before that point, and Nick was driving so I give John a kiss and says, I mean, you didn't want to. He pushed you into doing something you didn't want to do and now he's mad at you. If someone's willing to cancel a proposal over you doing something he told you to do, it sounds like you dodged a bullet. Hell, why even tell you he was thinking about it other than to make you feel worse?

[00:13:43] I bet he was a serious about the there and he's about to propose but now doesn't trust you to do it and gave you attitude into feeling guilty and sleeping on the couch. He doesn't love you and he's fucking with you. If he

[00:15:03] was going to genuinely propose because he loves ring, or accused me of trying to drag out the situation more than it needed to be. He got a long story short, who broke up Christmas Eve. I went to spend the holidays with my mum, and I'm currently staying at hers while I tried to sort through this. I wasn't going to make an

[00:16:24] update about this, but yesterday John texts me. John said he basically berated Nick for encouraging that kind of behavior and for not protecting me. I'm honestly shocked Nick never mentioned this to me.

[00:17:40] That kind of makes sense if he felt embarrassed by John confronting him.

[00:17:44] I should also add that John apologized in case That's on me. Sorry about that. And a lot of people saying that the breakup was the right solution in this situation,

[00:19:00] questioning if there was ever going to be a proposal at all. What do you guys make of
