Today, I got married. My mother told me to stop being difficult, because she was the mother of the bride, and it was her day to shine. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I got married. My father saw this as a good time to give some solemn, heartfelt advice to my new husband: "That ring gets real heavy fast." I was standing right there. So was my mother. FML
Today, I got married. When my father gave me away, in front of hundreds of people, to my groom, he said, "She's your problem now." FML
Today, I got married and my mom refused to be there because my dad, whose guts she hates, was there even though I promised repeatedly that I would keep them apart. I couldn't do the mother-son dance. She keeps insisting that it was a "lapse in judgment." Yeah, like we're really going to be able to have a do-over. FML
Today, it was my wedding day. When my soon-to-be-husband was saying his vows, he didn't say my name. He said his mother's. FML
Today, as my husband and I were leaving our wedding reception, my mother-in-law hugged me and whispered in my ear, "You're gonna do great tonight!" FML
Today, I was working as a caterer at a wedding when I congratulated the bride’s mom, saying, "You must be so proud of your daughter!" She responded, "I’m the bride." FML
Today, it was my wedding day. Three people showed up. My mom, my dad, and the priest. FML
Today, I got married to my girlfriend of three years. Her mother's Alzheimer's came into play at the wedding when she asked who I was. My bride-to-be couldn't stop crying. FML
Today, my mother got remarried. I am now officially older than my step-father. FML
Today, I went to the courthouse to apply for my marriage license and had my mother tag along with me. When I asked one of five security guards where to go, my mom looked at him and said,"You’re suppose to talk her out of it." Thanks, Mom. FML

are you a psychology major? cuz for your sake i ******* hope not. there is a personality disorder called narcissistic personality disorder, and personality disorders are among the hardest to TREAT in psychology. you can't CURE them you fucktard. don't try and use psychology and sound like an ignorant asshole when you have no ******* clue what you're talking about. and to the OP - that sucks, but i would just tell your mom to **** off, and that it is your day.

@88- fatehatesme said " if it can't be cured then it's a part of something called their personality", and you corrected them by saying that it can actually be part of their personality, and if so is one of the hardest to cure? so basically you copied what they said in an attempt to correct them. fail.

I think what 88 was trying to correct was the odd way 86 phrased the statement. It was worded oddly, and honestly, when I first read it I kind of got annoyed too. What 86 said was kind of wrong and kind of right? It's hard to explain...but it was worded in such a way, than many true psych/social services people would be a little put off by it. It didn't seem right at first... especially the whole "cure" thing... That isn't a big word used by psychologists, at least that I have met. It sends the wrong message. Most psych treatments involve long, cooperative TREATMENTS, working with the patient in order to help them gain skills/self concepts/whatever they need for themselves. "Cure" isn't used because it leads to the idea of a medical quick fix. Idk, it seemed awkwardly worded. Although, #88 didn't have to be so rude about it. Also OP: Tell your mother, if she wants to shine, she can go polish her own ass and shove it in peoples faces elsewhere. It's actually YOUR day. Also, #86, you can hardly know if op's mom has Narcissistic Personality Disorder (Axis II). She seems very self absorbed, but the personality disorder gets a little more complicated than that. She could just have the very common "headuptheass-itus"

You know personally, I agree #1. And OP why is your mom being such a bitch exactly? I can't quite put my considerably less bitchy finger on it.

This is absolutely true. I think in a few states women might get away with making those type of people... disappear for trying to steal their day.

That's what I plan on doing if I ever get married. I'll punch myself in the face before I spend thousands upon thousands of dollars on a party for a bunch of unappreciative assholes. I'd rather do a civil ceremony and blow some money on booze and gambling in Vegas, followed by plenty of dirty consummation.

Unless her mother stole her wedding dress and now Op is sitting at home on the computer waiting for her mom to get back from the honeymoon.

Maybe OP wasn't actually being difficult, but the mother was just being self-centred. E.g. If OP was trying to tell the make up artist a different style of make up she wants, and the mother was complaining at OP for that...
