“After being with my girlfriend for 5 years, I decided to propose. She was really excited and wanted to start planning our wedding right away.” It seemed like the couple was going to have a happy future together. However, the woman’s true personality started to show, and the man didn’t know what to do, so he turned to the internet for advice.
The man in this story is 45 years old. He has an 11-year-old daughter from his first marriage, and he shares custody of her with his ex-wife. He fell in love again and started a new relationship. Right from the start, his girlfriend got along well with his daughter, and the man was really happy about it.

After the proposal, the fiancée began looking at wedding venues and asking her friends to be bridesmaids. But then something unexpected happened.

The man wrote, “Then she told me she wanted her niece to be a flower girl. I didn’t mind, but I also wanted my daughter to be one too. My fiancée looked at me strangely and said she didn’t think my daughter would be a good fit.”

The man was shocked. He said, “I got upset and told her my daughter would be in our wedding. My fiancée got mad and said it was her decision who was in the wedding, and my daughter wasn’t one of them. I told her if my daughter couldn’t be in the wedding, then there might not be a wedding. I left and took my daughter out for ice cream.

My daughter knows we’re getting married and said she’ll look pretty in whatever dress my fiancée picks. It really hurt me to hear that.”

He decided to text his fiancée and told her he would be staying at a friend’s to think this over. Then his mother-in-law texted him saying he was overreacting and that his daughter didn’t have to be in his wedding, and that he was a jerk for saying that he would cancel it.

The situation is really unpleasant, so the man turned to Internet users for advice, “So, did I take it too far saying I will cancel? Am I overreacting or just being a good dad?”
