Before I begin I would like to say that my English is not the best so I apologize for any mistakes I make.
As the title says, I got mad at my fiancee because she doesn’t want my brother to attend our wedding because he has Downs Syndrome. The other day when we were planning a few things about our wedding I mentioned that I wanted my brother to be the best man at the wedding to which my fiancee said that she didn’t want him to attend. At first I was very surprised at what she said because she always treated my brother better than most of the people that have met him and I actually thought she wasn’t serious but she went on to explain that he shouldn’t even come to the ceremony because all he does is ruin events like that (which isn’t true at all) and that it would be better without him there.
For the next few days this has been a matter of constant arguing between the two of us because she wants me to put her own wedding wishes above my brother. Some of her family agrees with her that I should put her above my own brother but I just can’t accept that. My brother has been the best thing I’ve ever had and I’m not about to leave him out of my wedding because my wife thinks he would make things worse.
Now, to make matters worse, some of her friends are accusing me of being selfish for this and that she’s right about my brother being a bad idea for the wedding. I’m actually considering ending things but that’s beyond the point I’m trying to make.
Am I in the wrong for getting mad at my fiancé after she said she didn’t want my brother to attend our wedding?
Here are what netizens think:
- I would be calling off the wedding. It’s your brother
- This is absurd, don’t marry him
