My fiance (31) is short. His height has always been a source of insecurity for him and he takes others’ comments too seriously.
With our wedding approaching, He asked if I’d consider wearing flat shoes at the wedding. I was confused, like very confused. I asked if he was joking but he went on a rant about how doesn’t want to be made fun of at his own wedding. and that if I choose to wear high heels then we will look ‘awkward’ in the photos and in front of the guests. I refused and he kept calling me selfish and inconsiderate and said that I prioritized a bare of high heels over his comfort and happiness for the big day.
He had his mom involved and she is pushing me to reconsider. When I refused to discuss it she said that my unwillingness to cooperate is a huge indicator of my level of maturity, she then went on a long rant about what lengths ‘real wives’ are willing to go to to help out their husbands and said that I’m apparently too immature and shallow to be committed in a marriage if I make such an issue out of it.
Am I being selfish? It’s not just about what I want but the high heels help make the wedding dress look better and I feel like I deserve to look my best at my own wedding just like every bride’s dream. His insecurity is preventing me from getting that. Am I Wrong…
