A man felt his narcissistic mother always sought attention, even during significant moments in his life. When planning his wedding, she asked if she could wear white. He said no, but later asked his fiancée, who unknowingly agreed. “My mother-in-law-to-be asked me if she could wear white to our wedding. I said sure, and now my fiancé is really mad at me,” she wrote on Reddit.
The bride didn’t think much about the white dress as they were having a traditional Indian wedding, where she wouldn’t be wearing white. She didn’t understand the fuss: “As long as the groom doesn’t get confused and marry the wrong person, how does it matter?” she asked.
The bride turned to Reddit for help. One user suggested, “OP should talk to her fiancé to get on the same page and maybe, going forward, tell MIL she has to ‘run things by him.’” Another added, “The only attention someone other than the bride wearing white to a wedding would get is ridicule.”
After discussions and reading Reddit comments, the man revealed his mother’s narcissistic behavior and how it affected him. With the support of his fiancée and her family, they communicated better and managed the wedding plans together. The mother’s white gown attempt failed to ruin the ceremony, thanks to the vigilance of Piya’s family. Ultimately, the groom felt grateful for his new supportive family and looked forward to his future.
