Her Future Mother-In-Law Criticized A Wedding Dress She Loved, And When She Confronted Her, She Started Crying
Next year, this 25-year-old woman will be getting married to her fiancé, Jack, who is 26.
While she and Jack are obviously excited to tie the knot, her future mother-in-law has also been really looking forward to the event. So, Jack’s mom has been extremely involved in the planning process.
And now that it has become time for her to search for a wedding gown, her soon-to-be mother-in-law also insisted on joining her.
But she really did not have a problem with that until recently, when they actually went dress shopping together.
While she was trying on dresses, her mother-in-law actually started criticizing every single gown that she tried on. Plus, the woman would say things like, “That’s a no for us,” or, “We can do better.”
“I was getting irritated, but I kept it inside to not cause any drama,” she recalled.
Eventually, though, she did try on one specific dress that she immediately fell in love with. And at that moment, she turned to the saleswoman and declared that that was the gown she wanted to purchase.
But rather than simply supporting her decision or being happy for her, her future mother-in-law actually just disagreed with her and made a rude comment.
“Are you kidding? I don’t want that one; she’s not pretty,” her mother-in-law actually said.

At that point, she attempted to remain as polite as physically possible while putting her foot down.
She told her mother-in-law that while she was thankful to be accompanied as she went wedding dress shopping, the decision was ultimately hers.
After all, they were searching for her wedding gown.
“And that I was going to choose that one whether my mother-in-law liked the dress or not,” she added.
Still, her mother-in-law was not very understanding and instead just started crying! Then, the woman even began accusing her of being selfish and ungrateful for everything her mother-in-law had done for her.
Afterward, her fiancé’s mom actually walked out, caught a taxi, and went home.
Following that whole ordeal, she was forced to tell her fiancé Jack what had happened. And he actually thought she could have been more understanding.
Apparently, Jack is the only child in his family. So, he feels like this is his mother’s only chance to get this experience.
So, she has started to feel a bit bad ever since their wedding dress shopping trip went sideways.
“But I also feel like I should be able to choose the dress I want,” she vented.
That’s why she’s trying to figure out whether claiming that her future mother-in-law did not have a say in her wedding dress decision really made her a jerk or not.
Why do you think her future mother-in-law felt entitled to an opinion? Wasn’t it already generous of her to include her fiancé’s mom in the planning? Did she do the right thing by standing up for herself?
