If the bride is this jealous, you know she'll be like this with his female coworkers and others. He should run!

NTA, you don't go where you're not wanted. What's going on with her friend, does he really not see how Jennifer's behavior is a massive red flag and problem?

Maybe the friends wanted her to attend so that bride would go crazy and Matt wouldn't go thru with it. If he does marry, he's going for a ride of accusations never imagined

Simply tell your friend be at next wedding.

" i peed on it so it's mine". Dusty: " you marked me several times" 😂😂😂🤣😂

OP is NTA. Never should you have to beg or plead to attend an event - any event involving anyone you know - no good will come of it. Hope OP enjoys her day with her BF and it is stress free.

(Before update) OH HELL NO, NTA! If the bridezilla was this angry just because she was needlessly jealous of her fiancé and that you found a dress you liked (and likely looked very good in) and sent a photo to your bf so he could match, I can't imagine the hell she'd create at the wedding/reception. I wouldn't want to be anywhere near her after that. I'd send my apologies to my friend but would not change my mind. UPDATE: I somehow suspect that OP's friends that dropped out were also "encouraged" to do so. But even if they weren't this should explain to Matthew that his fiancé is not a good person.

I think she chose OP to fixate on instead of her fiancé’s other female friends becuz SHE thinks OP is the prettiest of their group (therefore, the biggest threat). So the dress compliment set her off hard (insecure brides are terrified of being upstaged on their big day). Also, when OP said she had a BF, Bridezilla looked shocked becuz she really does believe OP is actively out to get her man. Good luck to him. He’ll be reassuring her for their whole marriage.

Bride being asked to leave the dress shop told me everything I needed to know. Walking red flag! I'd be shocked if the wedding happen. If it does get the fire extinguisher because that marriage will go up in flames. Always great to see Candi, she always has a great perspective. ❤

As OP said, Matthew needs a backbone. Regardless of how OP looks, or what did or did not happen between her and Matthew, they are best friends, and if Jessica wants to break them up, Matthew should run. I am a guy in my 40s. The three most important women in my life are my wife of 22 years, my daugter, and my best friend of 25 years. It happens to be that for a hot minute when my bestie and I were 19, we were a thing. We realize that we love each other, but we were not suit for each other that way. Sure, for a few years this friendship was a complicated for my wife. But today, I am happy to say that those three most important women in my life do love each other. And even when it was hard at first, my wife never tried to interfere with my friendship.

YEEESSS, Candy! As an introvert, approaching people is not my thing. But when I see something about someone or something someone is wearing that I think is amazing, I HAVE TO TELL THEM. Paying a genuine compliment & walking away is my drug of choice. 💙💙💙 I finally *kinda* learned to take a compliment! I’ll accept anything regarding my hair & love it. 😂 Still working on the rest. 😬🤷🏻‍♀️

Jealously is an illness. I hope she's better soon

Darn. She almost posted an update today but it was removed for being too long by the mods...

I’m so upset OP posted an update two hours ago but it was removed by the mods. Hopefully she gets it back up but I’m so hoping the wedding is off.

NTA. There is no reason you should attend an event in which one of the people throwing the event hates you and the other won’t stand up for you and make her stop.

I think the bride is jealous of their relationship, because of how close they are. There trying to get her to go. Not how other female friends. They've been besties longer.

"You've marked me several time"......bwhahahaha, y'all so nasty. I love it. ❤😂😂😂😅😅

Why is this guy marrying some one who does this to his friend? The bride is crazy, and i agree with Candy, Jen probably thinks op is hot. Now that op is fleeing this sinking ship it'll be the next most attractive woman friend or coworker, or the guy with the best looking girlfriendthis ,marriage is getting burned to the ground.

That tip on jealousy was huge for me thanks. I will start complimenting, praying for, and well wishing the people I am jealous of.

I suspect Matthew said something. "Oh yea I used to like her, but it never went anywhere" etc.

Bride needs therapy or something to sort out your outfit I'm an introvert and try to give compliments to others as a way to brighten others day

NTA this happens so often. It happened to me. Insecurities always cause the ends of friendship.

lol I like the "throw shimmer not shade" shirt

I'd be completely stuck on the part where my fiance's behavior toward my best friend, which had been consistently pleasant for years, changed Jekyll and Hyde-style immediately after I put a ring on it. I'd seriously question my decision to marry someone who could be THAT fake for THAT long in order to get a commitment from me.

NTA. Jennifer pretended to be a nice person until she got the ring. She obviously has issues. Groom needs to step in now or let the fiancee run his life forever. The only thing is if OP doesn't go then the bride WINS

I need to know more about how Matthew talks about OP to Jennifer

Where in the heck is Dusty getting his white on white and black on black thunder t-shirts!?!??!!

If you compliment others 9 out of 10 times you'll get one back.

I could never be with someone this insecure. You will not treat my friends like crap because of your insecurities. If you don't trust me, that's a you problem and maybe you should be alone.

Nta she is insecure and she most likely has a list. Matthew needs to understand this. His bride needs therapy.

You missed something- other female friends might be friends with the groom but OP is a friend of the whole family. The bride might not be as accepted into the family and OP is basically a bonus relative because of length of knowing each other. In comments did OP specify how long she’s known the groom? Is it from birth? Were they next door neighbors as kids? It’s not just her looks, grooms sister likes OP more than she likes Bride and that’s telling more than just bride jealousy over looks.

Either we’re missing something or the bride is crazy. Either way, Op should not go where she’s not wanted.

...I feel like Dusty just made a squirting joke in the background. Maybe I just have a dirty mind. If not, good for Candy!

@6:47 This caught my attention. Why single out one female friend?

as somebody who had guy friends from high school at some point, they'd pit their significant other against me and I'd nope out (can't really say I have any friends from when I was younger, but I'm not into dealing with that crap from them...she can have his dumbass)

Pretty gamers drive pretty non-gamers nuts

🤎💜

Did you just tell us all that Candy peed on you? Several times???

Is it possible that he said OP’s name in his sleep or during s*x? That would account for the attitude. And, even if nothing had ever happened between him and OP, after that denials would sound weak and dishonest
