Today, at our wedding, instead of saying "I do", my fiancé paused before saying, "I can't do this", stepped down from the altar and proposed to my maid of honor. When she obviously refused, he ran from the venue bawling. He's not returning my calls. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, during my wedding ceremony, the groom-to-be found it appropriate to blurt out about an ongoing affair with my maid of honor. They got married instead. FML
Today, after months of arguing and conflict, I broke up wIth my fiancé. Or at least, I tried to. The wedding's off, but only until he can convince me to want to marry him again. FML
Today, at a dinner I'd been planning for months with my fiancé to talk to our families about the wedding for the first time, he told me he didn't want to get married. I cried in front of both of our families and a dozen of strangers. FML
Today, my now ex-fiancé walked out on me on our wedding day. He decided his best female friend, whom he constantly told me not to worry about while we were together, is his "soulmate." Both of them ran away together to god knows where, while I stood there humiliated in front of our family and friends. FML
Today, my fiance told me that he no longer loves me, that he still has feelings for an ex. The wedding is off and he needs the ring back to give to the right woman. FML
Today, my fiancé told me that he was having second thoughts on our engagement. Instead of just calling it off, he took me to a fancy restaurant and took a public poll on whether we should get married. The majority said no. FML
Today, I was supposed to get married. I called it off only 20 minutes before the ceremony was supposed to begin because I saw my fiance punch his own mother in the face. FML
Today, my uncle was supposed to be the officiant at my wedding but he and my dad teamed up to make a joke about how this was actually my fiancé's funeral. Everyone laughed, except my fiancé. He burst into tears and ran from the altar. We can’t find him and he’s not answering his phone. FML
Today, my fiancée got married. I did not. FML
Today, I married the love of my life. I was ecstatic until the wedding reception, where my new husband got drunk and started crying about how he'd been "forced" into marrying me. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm sorry op, that's awful. At least you found out before you were married. Wishing you the best!

At least your maid of honor is a back-stabbing b.
dolphinlvr7 24
You mean "isn't"
greeneyedx 23
She said no, dude
DEADPOOL076 30
Literacy. It's important.
toaster87 19
@37 she said no but you don't randomly propose to someone, maybe there was something going on prior, and she just said no to avoid the embarrassment/awkwardness, or they were just fooling around?
NeatNit 33
nice typo
Lalala579121 28
59, I don't necessarily think there had to be anything going on beforehand. He might have just done it as a way to relieve or at least change whatever pressure he was putting on himself.
Thatissarcastic 17
I agree with #59. Actually in reality I think they were having an affair and that's why he tried to propose to her, nobody takes that big of a step with someone for no reason. She might have been backstabbing. Either way though **** ops life.
lexcpooh 11
Oops ??
r3ktm8 13
#59, You don't have to actually be with someone to fall in love. It's possible he had a thing for her and she never reciprocated his feelings.
GrapeJuice67 17
here here! nothing says that he couldn't have tried to keep being with her, and she kept refusing the man. Or that he couldn't have secretly developed feelings for her and hidden them away for a long time. Either way, I feel bad for the OP. At least you got your friend, OP!

@59 Its also possible him and the maid of honor had something before he was with OP and never got over her. Hope there is a follow-up on this one.
xx000o 27
Is she returning your calls?
slutfactory 17
Wow, that's insane, Op. Really sorry about your wedding. I hope things get better for you.
teentee401 37
I feel bad but...what was she calling to say? I mean he dumped you AND tried to move on in the same instant on their wedding day: what else is there to be said?
brezzyanna 17
"I want my stuff back" "I'm keeping the wedding presents" "this wedding cost money, you owe me half"
slutfactory 17
Or maybe to just casually follow up with a, "what the actual **** dude." I mean, I would.

I'm sorry op, that's awful. At least you found out before you were married. Wishing you the best!

Too bad it wasn't before spending money on the wedding, though.

Maybe he's just under stress... Marriage is a huge commitment that he's not mature enough to handle at the moment. Just because of these actions, you can't assume that he doesn't still love her.
ImmortalSyn 17
He asked the maid of honor to marry him. That's a pretty clear sign he isn't in love with the OP.
kbecks87 16
If they're at the ceremony, chances are they already have the marriage certificate.
Redgy22 26
Doesn't count until it's signed by whomever is performing the ceremony which is usually afterwards.
bcalle 8
The real question here is, why are you calling the idiot?
knuckleheadknock 26
#29 he chose to get married, so "stress" is no excuse. And NO ONE who truly love's their partner would propose to someone else in front of her and on one of the most important days of her life!
izzajaneful 24
No shit.
kylerzz 15
I'm so sorry op , you deserve better than that. I hope the best for you in the future!
deleteme 22
Good thing he was honest, and didn't run away AFTER marring you. I wish you all of luck OP
squinch 16
If he were actually being honest he would have said something long before the wedding even happened.
scyth3s 13
Honest. She never said expedient.
demix_fml 32
I'm so sorry you had to go through this op. I wish you all the best in the future.
whassallt26 13
I would image he's just lost countless amounts of respect from his family, still shitty though
WOTAN1488 24
What in the ****
starlandmarie 22
My thoughts exactly
enxhi96 21
What an asshole..
CaptainCore993 19

flyingflies 36
why did people hit the YDI button? she isn't the one to blame! i'm really sorry, OP!
gamermonster 34
The people who did are the FML jerks... It always happens. I wonder if they're like "how should i be a total jerk today?" I don't do those things (unless it's an accident)
LowExpectations 30
People also hit YDI by mistake as well. I've done that numerous times when I'm scrolling through FMLs on my phone.
Earl_KarmasBitch 36
Yeah, they really need a way to change your vote.
Purexinsanity 46
Or they're trying to get the badge
Kobeh 13
We should be able to undo a vote or get a confirmation button
smoothies14 32
I think there's someone out there that can come up with an excuse why someone deserves it on every FML. Most of the time I can come up with something but not always, and I don't vote according to it. I don't think they're all accidental or trying to get the badge.
laden_swallow09 35
You used to be able to change your vote on the App after you tapped the button, but they did away with it for some reason. That was... years ago, now that I think of it.
Setareh23 34
I think it's the same weird reason people say YDI to those who get abused or cheated on. Something along the lines of "well you were dating them, so you must have known their terrible personality, so it is your fault." Complete lack of compassion and understanding that some jerks are just great manipulators/liars.
