Her Grandma Yelled At Her For Her Wedding Dress Being “Too Revealing”
This twenty-three-year-old woman is set to get married this year and recently picked up her wedding dress– how exciting!
But, the gown is not going into alterations until the wedding gets a bit closer. So, in the meantime, she asked to leave the dress at her grandma’s house to avoid her fiancé accidentally seeing it. And, of course, her grandma said yes.
Then, once she got to her grandma’s house, she also tried on the gown since her grandma had never seen it before.
Her grandma claimed to have liked it overall, but she is a bit old-fashioned and also started making comments about her looking “so busty” in her dress.
“But I have a large chest, so it doesn’t matter what I wear. Anyone with eyes can see that I have big boobs,” she explained.
Regardless, her grandma then started eyeing the dress up and down before offering to make some alterations in order to make the dress more “modest.”
She reiterated that her dress would be getting altered soon, though, and told her grandma that was not necessary.
Still, though, her grandma would not stop pushing the topic. In fact, she was even asked if, during the alterations, she planned on “covering up” her chest. Plus, the grandma accused her of leaving everything “hanging out.”
“I didn’t even think she would have a problem with the dress in the first place because I don’t even feel that it’s revealing. But, she did not shut up about how much she hated how ‘low-cut’ the dress was,” she recalled.

In turn, she could sense that her grandma might go behind her back and alter the dress without her approval.
So, she told her grandma that if she felt any urge to do that, she would just take her wedding dress and find someone else to hang on to it.
Her grandma did not take this well, though. Instead, the grandma got super defensive before stooping even lower before.
At that point, her morals were questioned for wearing “such a dress.”
She simply could not take her grandma’s hurtful comments anymore after that and definitely did not feel comfortable leaving the dress at her grandma’s house anymore.
So, she packed it up, said her goodbyes, and brought the dress back to her own house.
Then, she confided in her mom about everything that had happened.
And while her mom ultimately agreed that the dress was not revealing in the slightest and that her grandma should not alter the dress, her mom still kind of blamed the fight on her.
“She said I started a fight for no reason and that I should apologize to my grandma. But, I didn’t feel like it was a fight because I was still being very respectful of my grandma despite her yelling at me,” she said.
In fact, that’s exactly why she just packed up her things and left– in order to avoid an argument since her grandma’s comments about her morals really upset her.
Nonetheless, she is super disappointed to be having a conflict with her grandma so close to the wedding.
And because of her mother’s comments, she is no longer sure if she has a right to feel hurt or if it was wrong to stand up for herself.
If you were in her shoes, how would you have responded to the grandma’s comments? Do you think her grandma owes her an apology or vice versa?
