Today, as I was planning my impending nuptials with my fiancé, my sister jokingly told him it's not too late to call it off. He took her seriously and bailed. He won’t answer my calls. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was insulted and harassed by my sister and her boyfriend, all because I proposed yesterday. They were angry I might get married before they did. They have known each other since primary school; I met my fiancée earlier this year. FML
Today, I got a ransom note saying, "We have kidnapped your husband and won't release him unless you postpone the wedding." The wedding is tomorrow and it was in his handwriting. FML
Today, after waiting 3 months until my friend's wedding was done being celebrated, I announced my engagement. My newlywed friend bitched me out for "stealing" all of the attention and being selfish. FML
Today, I discovered that my ex-girlfriend, who I dated for 6 years, is getting engaged to my friend. The very same "friend" who's been encouraging me to break up with her for the past year. FML
Today, my sister told me not to come over anymore because her baby is scared of my face. FML
Today, my bandmate and I decided to propose to our girlfriends, who are also in the band, at the same time in the middle of a concert. His girlfriend said yes. Mine ran off the stage crying. FML
Today, instead of spending New Year's Eve having a romantic night out with my fiancé as we'd planned, I'm spending it sitting beside him in the hospital because his friends convinced him to go off-road ghost-riding in the dead of night. FML
Today, I caught my dad sneaking a drink of whiskey outside, shortly before my wedding. I asked if he was seriously getting drunk at a time like this. He looked at me and scoffed, "It's the only way I'm gonna get through this stupid shit." FML
Today, my family went on vacation. I had to stay home to take care of everyone's animals. I called my mom, who said she was too busy to talk to me. When my sister asked her who was on the phone, she replied, "The dog sitter." FML
Today, my crazy ex-girlfriend legally changed her last name to mine. I'm getting married in a week. FML

I mean, realistically, not your fault at all. If he was gonna bail, he was gonna bail anyway, but I can imagine that explaining how that came to be did not go down well. Has he come back yet or did the wedding get called off?

So many possible reasons for this to happen: Fiancé might be just feeling nervous about such a big commitment and with a little time might return to plans. Bride might be obsessed by the wedding itself and Fiancé starting to feel like he’s just the man in the suit for the wedding. Fiancé might have decided that getting married is not for him and was struggling with when and how to get out. As bad as it is for couples to break up it’s way worse to get divorced with children and shared property in the mix. IF this was going to happen, better sooner than later.

Have you tried calling your sister? If she’s not answering, we’ll know the punch line of her joke.

Send him some thick wool socks for his cold feets.

Better now than at the altar. No need for the fancy wedding dress and hundreds of relatives. Just book an Elvis impersonator and a nuptial suite at Niagara Falls in case he changes his mind again and invite your closest friends in case he doesn't.

Thank her. If that’s all it took for him to bail, he was already on the way out. And better now than on your wedding day.

Better now than five years from now when you've got two cars, a mortgage, kids, and a dog together.

I'm sorry, OP. That sucks. I hope you didn't put any deposits down on vendors.

I think you mean venues. Vendors are people who sell things at a market or fair.

vendors are also the people who provide the flowers, food, and various other things for a wedding
DanielleinDC 34
Well, yes, vendors like caterers, a DJ/band, florists, etc., not to mention her dress and those of her bridesmaids.

A blessing in disguise. You may love each other, but now you know that he's not ready. This doesn't have to be the end of your relationship, but its a definite sign that something isn't right. I wouldn't blame your sister either, it was an innocent comment.
