Now, this is crazy!

A mom named Sylvia posted a video on TikTok and she told viewers a crazy story…

About the mother of the bride dumping a glass of wine of Sylvia’s daughter at a wedding!

Sylvia said, “Tell me if you think our generation would have handled this differently.”

She explained, “My daughter went to a wedding where she was the guest, her boyfriend was the invite. She knows no one there. He’s a wonderful person, there’s no one who could have a gripe with him.”

Sylvia continued, “At the wedding, the mother of the bride walks by her with a full glass of wine, dumps it down my daughter’s dress, and just keeps walking, doesn’t say a word. It was obviously a targeted hit.”

The TikTokker then said, “My daughter starts crying. She knows nobody here. She can’t have done anything wrong to anybody. She’s also a sweetheart. So her boyfriend, that I love, he takes his drinks and pours it down the front of him.”

Sylvia added, “Now this is where our generation would have handled it differently. Am I wrong? I’m not condoning violence, but I’m saying my generation would not have poured the drink down our own shirt.”

She then said, “I’m very confused about this new generation.”

In the video’s caption, she wrote, “Gen X, am I right?”

It must be a case of mistaken identity BUT still not a proper way to handle a situation especially at a wedding!
