The Experience Of A Jilted Bride by AJOT99(m): 10:40pm On Nov 01, 2014
If this happened for real, then it’s so sad! Found the article on Hello Beautiful. Read…



I don’t know where to begin, but I need your advice on where to go from here. So here’s the story.

I have been in a relationship with this man for four years. Two years into the relationship, he proposed marriage which I proudly accepted. However, throughout our relationship I NEVER met anyone face to face, nor via phone from his family — no kids, no friends, no church family. NO ONE! I constantly questioned this, but was always told that since these loved ones lived in another state it was difficult to get them all together. So, I let it go.

Anyway, the wedding planning was taking place quite smoothly, yet there were times when I constantly had to nag him for his list of guests and their addresses. Needless to say that he NEVER came through with a complete list for me. Yet, he told me that all of his guests knew all the pertinent wedding information.

Now, on to the good part. Two days before the wedding, he tells me that his mom (who lives in another state) became very ill and was hospitalized in intensive care. Therefore, he told me that some family members would not be attending the wedding. The very next day, he claimed that there was NO change in his mother’s condition and that more of his family members would not be attending and he was thinking of going to see his mom also. So, I responded with, “I understand your feelings for your mom, but how do we handle all the other guests and family that have traveled for this big day?” Well, the next day comes around, (which is the wedding day), and I get two calls that morning. First, he called and said that his mom took a turn for the worse. Then the second call, (an hour later from the first), he called and said that his mom had died. So, I immediately jumped into action by going to him to console him for his loss and to try to arrange for him to leave at some point that day to meet other family members to handle arrangements for his mom. While all of this is going on, I called around to tell all the other guests the news and that we would be delaying the ceremony for an hour so that the groom could get himself together, and he would be leaving right after the ceremony.

While guests are arriving to the church they find the church locked and no one inside. Out from nowhere the groundskeeper appears and asked why the guests are there? They responded they were there for a wedding. The groundskeeper informs them no wedding was set to take place. After many phone calls back and forth between my guests, the groundskeeper, and my potential groom it was discovered that the groom NEVER asked his pastor to officiate our wedding, nor did he book the church for the wedding. By that time it seemed to me, and others, that he simply DID NOT want to get married, aside from the grief he was suffering from losing his mother, which looked suspect after finding out the truth about the “locked” church. So, it was confirmed two days later that the groom lied about his mother’s death because he wanted to cover up the fact of NOT completing his wedding task as he should have. He claims he failed to do his part of the planning and came up with all these lies because he was scared and afraid that I would leave him for being lazy and procrastinating. I was devastated and humiliated beyond belief that I could have been left at the altar like that. To this day, this man constantly calls and asks for forgiveness and another chance at love with me. But, why would I even want to give him an ounce of my time? Am I being too harsh to someone that I undoubtedly truly did love? Or, should I just admit that I deserve better and let him and his deceitfulness go elsewhere? — The Jilted Bride

Nah you deserve better. Unless he proves he's trustworthy you walk away
Re: The Experience Of A Jilted Bride by deuce7(m): 11:13pm On Nov 01, 2014
I dont think I can believe this story. Did you force him to propose? How can you not know any of your Groom's family? and many other questions. I simply dont believe this.

This story ain't true..who in her right senses will agree to a wedding without meeting any member of the groom's family?

I smell lies,lies,lies............................................. 1.Do people arrange for a wedding without a proper introduction at first? Even people that live abroad come home to do proper introduction/engagement,meet the inlaws before fixing of the wedding date.
....
2.Its impossible to just go wed in a church without pre wedding classes with the pastors that are gonna officiate during the wedding,the couple must have been accustomed to the pastors in the church......................................................3.The bride gets married in her church and not the groom's church. Shikena.With this few points of mine, I hope I have been able to convince you without reasonable doubt that the OP is a liar undecided

Not everyone. People like Hitler for example don't.
I'm starting to double the credibility of the story myself.

Hmm well Hitler was a great leader but a bad person. Honestly if he could replace all that hate with love he'd be amazing.

Lol he didn't make it up tho

she deserves better and should not go back to him.


FOR THOSE SHOUTING THE WEDDING SHOULD BE DONE IN THE BRIDE'S CHURCH,I JUST WANT TO CLEAR SOMETHING.
THE WEDDING MUST NOT BE DONE THERE.IT DEPENDS ON THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE GROOM AND BRIDE.MANY GIRLS HAVE USED THIS PARTICULAR MENTALITY TO CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR THEMSELVES.THE PROPER PLACE TO DO THE WEDDING IS IN THE GROOM'S CHURCH NOT THE OTHER WAY ROUND. pls take note..
