One must wonder if stepfather Richard goes by his nickname because it certainly suits him!
This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/Character-Way1284, who shared his story about the drama that ensued after he informed his family of his engagement to his fiancé, Anna. For context, the Redditor and his stepfather, aptly named Richard, have never really gotten along, but the claws came out after Richard saw the original poster and Anna's proposal video. The footage shows that Anna was taken aback and a little pissed off that she wasn't warned to wear nicer clothes for the occasion (she was wearing sweats when he proposed). In hindsight, maybe this wasn't the right video to show to a family member like Richard, who clearly was looking to start a fight.
Richard commented in front of the entire family that he would have taken the ring back then and there and that he doesn't like "insecure women." All of this happened in front of Anna. Horrible! The Redditor stepped in and shut down his stepfather. Later, he informed his mother that he would not be inviting Richard to the wedding. That's when the mother lost it and essentially chose her husband over attending her son's wedding.
There's a slight chance this family might be able to resolve the issue before the ceremony, which isn't for at least another year. Nothing will be resolved, however, if Richard doesn't take responsibility for what he said and if his wife doesn't play a part in mending all the drama. If not, let's at least hope Anna's family is half-decent.
We've seen other instances of wedding drama. Like this post about a bride who accused her sister-in-law of upstaging her at her wedding. Keep scrolling for u/Character-Way1284's original post and for the best comments!
