His Girlfriend Wore A White Dress To His Sister’s Wedding And Bashed His Sister For Showing Off
When you’re in a relationship, you would hope that your partner enjoys spending time around your family. It can feel like a slap to the face when they don’t.
One man recently ditched his girlfriend at his sister’s wedding after she continuously said mean and hurtful things about his relatives.
He’s 25 and has been dating his 24-year-old girlfriend for about a year. Unfortunately, over the last few months, things haven’t been going well between them.
Much of this stems from his girlfriend’s disrespectful behavior toward his family.
His family is Indian and follows many Indian traditions, especially around holidays. Once, he invited his girlfriend to one of his family’s religious celebrations, which he hoped she’d be honored about, and she trashed members of his family the entire time.
“My mother and sister had prepared a home-cooked Indian lunch, which she refused to eat and complained about the entire time,” he said.
“It is customary to have at least one bite of a sweet meal prepared at home, but she declined because she disliked it, and so on. My sister was the only one who supported our relationship, and even then, my girlfriend would often criticize her.”
His girlfriend occasionally comments about how his sister thinks “too highly of herself,” which he disagrees with. Amazingly, his sister has managed to brush off his girlfriend’s bad attitude.
When he and his girlfriend were invited to his sister’s wedding, he hoped she’d be a respectful wedding guest, as it would only be one night, and his entire family would be in attendance.

Unfortunately, it didn’t go very well. His girlfriend showed up to the wedding in a white gown, which is considered controversial in your average American or Christian wedding.
Yet, at his sister’s wedding, everyone was dressed in traditional Indian clothes, including his sister, who wore a lovely, traditional red dress.
When his girlfriend noticed everyone was dressed differently, she seemed furious, almost as if she was trying to get a rise out of his sister by wearing white.
“I attempted to console her by telling her that she still looked gorgeous, which only made her angrier,” he recalled.
“Throughout the night, she proceeded to make sarcastic remarks about how much money my sister is wasting, why she is inviting so many guests, why she is wearing so much jewelry, and why she has to show off.”
Eventually, he became so frustrated by his girlfriend’s rude comments that he decided to ditch her. The wedding venue was huge, so he left her on one side of it and went to the other to be with his family. He managed to avoid and hide from her for a while until she eventually left on her own.
Ultimately, he was happy to be free of negativity and enjoy his time with his family.
“The next day, her family, friends, and everyone began cursing at me, calling me a [jerk],” he added.
“I understand that I should not have done that. I understand I deserve to be cursed at, but was it really uncalled for?”
Would you have done the same thing if you were in his shoes that night?
