Daily Star: Simply The Best 7 Days A Week :: Just Jane :: Altar hell bride wants me back
Last summer my fiancée jilted me on our wedding day.
I was standing at the front of the church with my best man, a church full of her family, my family and all our friends enjoying the most important day in my life.
And she never turned up.
After we had been waiting almost an hour her dad came in and said that she’d got cold feet and the wedding was off.
Family and friends had a great party, at my expense, at the reception, while my best mate and dad consoled me over far too much beer.
It was truly the worst day of my life. I was humiliated and totally broke.
She had been the one wanting the fairytale wedding with the big white dress, five bridesmaids, and the reception at the massive hotel with all the trimmings.
And because I loved her I paid for everything.
I would have been happy to have half a dozen mates and our fam-ilies at the register office then a barbecue in the garden.
She wanted a once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon so we were meant to be going to St Lucia for three weeks.
In the end I made my parents go, I couldn’t face it.
As you can imagine, I was devastated and it’s taken me all this time to recover my confidence.
And now she’s come back.
She turned up at my front door two weeks ago and said she had made a horrible mistake and she truly loves me.
I went all shaky and felt a bit sick.
She said she wanted us to get back together then hugged me.
But instead of feeling happy that the one thing I’d wanted for the past year had happened, I recoiled.
She hasn’t apologised for jilting me at the altar, or for the massive bills she’s left me with.
She just expects to be able to waltz back in and everything will be the same. I know I love her but something is stopping me from having her back.
Shall I just say yes and hope for the best?
The fact that dude is even CONSIDERING taking her back is mind boggling.
It shows a lack of self respect, and while Im not absolving her of blame, thats probably why she left him in the first place
