We are struck with sadness when we hear of the deaths of our moms and fathers. And having a fight with your husband is the last thing you want to do at this point, especially about anything trivial. Below is a similar story. Read the entire narrative and consider what you would do in this scenario.
Source: Reddit
My dad passed away 2 weeks ago. Before the funeral, My husband who has always had issues with height (he’s short) asked if I was going to wear high heels. I said yes because those high heels are the only pair of shoes that I have with black color to fit my outfit.
He tried to get me to wear other shoes but I refused and gave him the explanation above. He ranted about how worried he was about people seeing him with me and me looking taller (basically the same ol rant). I used to suck it up before but this time I said no. He said he wouldn’t attend the funeral then. I was shocked. I called him insane to miss the funeral over such a reason but he seemed upset and said that I was the insane one for refusing to compromise to make it work.
We had a huge fight and he ended up not going. We’re not talking to each other as of now and his family think I was stubborn and should’ve compromised if I really wanted him there.
What would you do in her situation? Any advice. Here are a few comments on the story where it was originally posted:
