The Bridesmaid’s Tale: A Dress, A Wedding, And A Family Feud!
Our protagonist’s tale is a rollercoaster of emotions, from the discovery of the old bridesmaid dress to the family feud that ensued when she tried to sell it. The dress, a symbol of a wedding that cost her nearly €1000 and a lot of emotional turmoil, was meant to be forgotten. But when she decided to sell it, the drama was rekindled. The cousin, the bride from the wedding, was furious, despite the fact that our protagonist had paid for the dress herself. The wedding was a nightmare, with the bridesmaids being guilt-tripped into buying dresses way over their budget, and the bride not even ending up getting her dress from the same shop. Despite all this, the bridesmaids stuck by the bride, who had had a hard life, losing her parents and brother. But now, our protagonist is left wondering if she’s the a**hole for trying to sell the dress. Let’s see what the internet thinks of this situation…

Sell the dress to her, not worth the family feud!
“INFO: is she still married? Because asking someone to buy their own bridesmaid dress is so incredibly rude in Ireland I’m just intrigued to see if her spouse has also put themselves on FB Marketplace so to say? Whether spouse is also hostage to her affrontery or endorses her brass neck isn’t your problem. But I’m just nosey (and Irish) and leaning over this digital garden to ask is entertaining me. Sell the dress. She has no manners, used it as a ransom note to guilt trip you and frankly you might as well discover how much you can recoup in the process of ridding yourself of an ugly dress and a person with no respect for you. And I call bullshit that she didn’t know because of her dear dead mammy because if Americans think other women have opinions on weddings, they have never met Irish women. There is no way someone (including probably the shop staff) didn’t tell her which means she chose to break a pretty common social contract deliberately and then chose to go for round two three years on? Don’t make the mistake of RSVPing a second time to an invite you hated first time.” – Engagingly nosey Irish commenter and a surprising revelation from another Irish person!
