Her Fiancé Is Insisting That They Invite His Ex-Girlfriend To Their Wedding
A woman has been dating her fiancé for close to 3 years, and recently, they have been discussing their future in-depth; like the fact that they would like to have their wedding sometime this year.
Last night, they sat down to discuss who they would like to invite to their wedding, and they decided they want to have it on the smaller side with no more than 25 people.
She was shocked when her fiancé insisted that his ex-girlfriend be one of those people they’re planning on inviting to their wedding.
“The two of them have been fairly close friends ever since they broke up and throughout our relationship, and this has certainly sparked secret jealousy in me along the way as it brings up worries of lingering feelings between them or inadequacy on my part,” she explained.
“But I don’t want to be controlling and do/say anything that might manipulate him into losing a good friendship, and (she) does seem like a good person.”
One thing about her fiancé’s relationship with his ex that does bother her is that she is aware that they had a very physical relationship.
They now frequently make very inappropriate jokes with one another, and this rubs her the wrong way.
She also doesn’t like that her fiancé’s ex won’t talk to her alone; her fiancé always has to be part of the conversation.
“It makes me uncomfortable and I feel pretty miserable when they are both around each other, almost like I shouldn’t be present as I know my feelings will be hurt (whether rightfully or not),” she said.

“All that to say… I’m a bit disheartened that he wants her to be at our very small wedding so badly.”
She has spent the last few years trying very hard to accept that her fiancé’s ex is a big part of his life, but she thought that had changed since the pandemic.
After the pandemic, her fiancé hasn’t really spoken much to his ex, so she figured there was no way he would want her at their wedding.
Well, she was wrong.
“I don’t want to be miserable on my wedding day, but I don’t want my fiancé to have someone he is close to absent on our day either,” she continued.
She’s left wondering if she’s just being petty about her fiancé’s ex, or if her feelings towards his ex are valid.
