Falling in love and getting ready for a wedding should be some of the happiest times in life, but for Harper, those dreams were ruined just days before the big day.
She overheard a conversation that revealed a terrible secret about her fiancé, leaving her no choice but to cancel the wedding. Now, she’s asking us for advice.
Here is Harper’s letter:
I thought I hit the jackpot with my fiancé-kind, protective, and financially stable. Days before our wedding, we hosted his
friends, but they kept exchanging odd glances and staring at me strangely. I eavesdropped as his best man was whispering to another guy.
To my horror, he said, “Poor girl, she has no idea she’s about to become a stepmom and raise a teenager in her house.
” I was stunned what stepdaughter? I confronted my fiancé, and he completely broke down.
After an hour of rambling, he finally admitted that he was divorced and had a 14-year-old daughter. In our 2 years
together, he had never once mentioned her. He explained that his daughter lived with her mom in another state and that he sent child support, but they rarely saw each
other since they weren’t close. However, now that the mother was remarrying, his daughter was going to come live with us.
He had just found out the week before but couldn’t bring himself to tell me, planning to do so “after the wedding stress was over.
” My world crumbled when I uncovered this secret, showing that my fiancé is a liar and has a hidden, twisted side.
So, just 3 days before the wedding, I made the painful decision to call it off. Now, I’m having second thoughts. Was
I too harsh? Did I overreact? Harper
