Her Wedding Is In Two Weeks, But She Wants To Call It Off Over Feeling Like Her Fiancé’s Mommy

If you felt like you were cast into the role of being a parent to your soon-to-be spouse against your wishes, would that be enough for you to call off the wedding?

This 30-year-old woman has spent close to four years with her 28-year-old fiancé, and their wedding is happening in just two weeks.

"When we first got together, he would write love notes and was very obvious with how he liked me. He would flirt with me and kiss me, and we would have so much fun," she explained.

"Over the last year, everything slowly stopped. At first I thought that we were just getting past the cupcake stage and relaxing. But all the flirting stopped."

"He doesn’t want me touching him. He isn’t taking care of things around the house, and nothing gets done if I don’t do it. He goes to work and comes home to play video games."

Her fiancé has a history of being depressed, and she is sympathetic to that, as she has been diagnosed with bipolar 2, so it's not like she doesn't understand mental illness.

However, her fiancé refuses to get any professional help and tells her that he's working on himself when he's absolutely not doing that at all.

Not too long ago, she had to attend a funeral in another state, and she was away from home for a week. When she returned, she was surprised that the house wasn't in disarray, but she thinks her fiancé's sister stopped by to do that, because everything her fiancé was in charge of was not done.

She had to make their bed; he claimed that he did their laundry, but it was still wet and sitting in a basket. One of his friends needed a box, so he dumped one of hers, left the contents all over the floor, and she had to pick it all up.

"It was a box I had my corsets and wallets and backup meds in. And they were just tossed to the floor like nothing. I’m tired to my core. I don’t feel attractive, and I just feel like I’m his mommy," she continued.

"It’s 2 weeks to the wedding, and I don’t think I can do it. I know he can be sweet like at the beginning, and I don’t want to leave him while he is struggling, but how long do I tie myself to him before it’s acceptable to walk away?"

Presumably, everyone is on their best behavior before getting married, and then things can go sideways when people get too comfortable, so if her fiancé is this bad already, it's not going to get any better after tying the knot with him.

If she's comfortable with the rest of her life looking exactly like this, she can still marry him, but it doesn't sound like that's what she wants.

It's easier to call it quits now before the wedding than afterwards, as it's a lot harder to untangle yourself from a legal spouse.

What advice do you have for her?
