let me preface by saying this story is not about anyone who lives in NY...it is about people who live out of state, so don't worry...it's not about anyone who would post on this board.
FH and i went out a week ago w a group of his friends. there are a few girls in the group who i do not know that well but they are really nice and always include me in their conversations.
so they were talking about an upcoming wedding that one of the girls really doesn't want to go to. she said that the groom has a girlfriend who he claims to be in love with, and he says he is no longer in love with the bride. the wedding is in a month or two, and he is still going through with it.
i asked the girl why he is still marrying her and she said because the wedding is all paid for and he feels like he has to. and he made a comment about all of the money in gifts they are going to get and that he can't pass that up.
can you believe it?!
as much as i love FH and want to spend the rest of my life with him, if i knew that he met someone else and was in love with her and didn't love me anymore i wouldn't want to be with him. it hurts to think of something like that happening, but if it did i would want to know and i wouldn't want to get married.
why would someone do this? i have been really upset ever since i heard this story. i can't imagine someone doing something like that for the GIFTS! what is wrong w people?!?!

Re: cheating and still getting married...
wow, that is messed up. i can see how someone might feel backed into a corner with the wedding approaching so quickly, feeling like they had no choice but to move forward with it... but not because they want the gifts and money!

Re: cheating and still getting married...
Its so disturbing, but it happens. Actually my FMIL was just telling me a story like this about someone she knew. In this case it was the girl that was cheating and still planning her wedding with her FH!!! Can you imagine going to RH's, flowers, music pictures and cheating on your FH the whole time??? It really is beyond me how people can actually do things like that.

Re: cheating and still getting married...
Okay that is BEYOND sick!! You're gonna be stuck in a marriage because you want to get all the china and a toaster off your registry??? It seems that alot of people don't take marriage seriously.

YEAH BUT the weird part is that he was with the mistress first, they had this thing for years, but he met a girl dated her and married her lol.

Re: cheating and still getting married...
it doesnt surprise me that he is going through with it. He is probably feeling some sort of obligation. A girl i knew got phone calls from a girl saying that she and her fiance were dating and in love. They got married, a year later she hired an investigator and they were divorced. People will cheat, they cheat when they are dating and when they are married. I told my FH if he can find someone better than me, he can go with her!! Thats how i feel. If you are not in the relationship 110%, it is never going to work and everyone will be miserable! It is very sad for the girl...

Re: cheating and still getting married...
I went to a wedding like this a few years ago. The groom had been in love with one of my best friends forever, but she had a bf so he met someone else and eventually became engaged. Right before the wedding my friend broke up with her bf and the groom said he would drop his fiance if my frind would give him a chance.
She said no...but there was some fishy stuff going on there- I still think they hooked up (they went away to AC together- shared a room- the fiancee stayed home to work)
The wedding went on, and they are still married...but I hear he's still making passes at my friend...
Oh, the drama......

Re: cheating and still getting married...
So people are confused and dont want to be married, and call it off,,, that is fine. You basically lose an 'investment' of what you put toward paying for the wedding.. The fact that he doesnt want to lose that 'investment' or gifts... is sad. No wonder why the divorce rate is so high!
