Guy Asks if He’s Wrong For Telling His Girlfriend That Her Choice To Wear a “Meme” Dress To A Wedding Is A Bad Call
by Justin Gardner
“Ummm… are you gonna wear THAT?!?”
Of course you never want to hear that phrase from your significant other, but you ESPECIALLY don’t want to be a woman hearing it from your boyfriend.
That’s what this guy had to tell his GF after she chose a very odd wardrobe choice to wear to a wedding.
Read on dear readers and see if you think he’s being a jerk or not.
AITA for not letting my girlfriend wear her “unique” dress to a wedding?
“My (M25) girlfriend (F30) Nat has a very particular sense of style. Picture Harley Finkle from wizards of waverly place, you will get the idea.
Don’t get me wrong, i never had a problem with that! In fact, i love the way she dresses because she loves to do so, and i am happy if she is happy. The thing is, sometimes she likes to incorporate memes into her clothes. No problem. It’s cute. But now she wants to wear a dress inspired on the meme “g*y rat wedding”. To my friend’s wedding. He and his fiancé are gay.
I told her, maybe that is not really appropriated? The dress in question would be full of little stuffed rats, pride flags and a big “I SUPPORT G*Y RATS” on the front. My friend is not a big fan of the way my GF dresses and i think this dress may cause an certain uproar in the wedding.
Now, Nat is upset with me and claiming that i am “throwing water in her flame of creativity”. The wedding is next month, so she has plenty of time to think about another thing to wear. Should i just let her go with the dress?
Am I the a**hole in this situation?”
And here’s what Reddit users had to say about this.
This reader said the dress would was not a good idea.
And this person thinks she’s just trying to get the spotlight on her.
And yet another person made a good point about being a “Non Player Character” in somebody else’s wedding.
In other words, stay in the background and SHUT UP.
I agree that the GF needs to get with the program and NOT draw attention to herself.
But what IN THE WORLD is the g*y rat wedding?
If you’re as confused as me… it’s a reference to a TV show that was kind of controversial.
