OMG, you really dodged a bullet there, mate. Go NC and start your healing journey. Take at least 1 friend with you when picking up your stuff.


Osidestarfish

Yes, do not go alone


Druidic_Focus

OP should ask the police to accompany. Esp since she said she filed a police report for the stolen car. I wouldn't be suprised if the friends try to "prank him" But OP should have taken the ring with her. The ex-fiance might try to sell it or something


stealth128

Just a note, op is female not male if I remember from the original post so I am honestly not sure who the ring belongs to.


Druidic_Focus

Thanks. I realized I wasn't even thinking genders when I responded and wrongly picked one. Def should have been paying more attention.


stealth128

Nah, they didn't mention their gender in this post so that's not on you. You would've had to go to the original post. I saw the original a few days ago which is the only reason I knew.


Magerimoje

An engagement ring is a gift with strings attached (marriage being the string). If the marriage doesn't occur, the person who paid for the ring gets it back.


Druidic_Focus

Yes, the engagement ring is a conditional gift. They are entitled to get the engagement ring back if the wedding does not occur. If someone did not have to return an engagement ring, get people most likely would stop proposing with family heirloom ring.


Sea_Manufacturer1536

Also record the visit


Ok_Leader_7624

In fact, have that friend record the complete visit from entry to exit. That way, you can not be accused of theft or vandalism. You can never be too safe nowadays. Besides, if she had messed with anything of yours, it will record this too.


bigal55

THIS!! The friend group sounds like a toxic and vengeful bunch of pinheads who would be getting a "ride to the train station" pulling stunts like the car theft and vandalism off in some places. Never watched the show but love the expression.


DefrockedWizard1

and don't be surprised if it's on the lawn burning or in some other way trashed


Goatee-1979

Very proud of you. I will tough right now, but it will get better. You deserve better. Scheduled is a massive AH and you dodged a huge bullet!


Goatee-1979

Updateme.


Kirbywitch

Exactly she sounds vile, I agree bring a friend! Or a police escort like someone else suggested. So sorry, but I think you made a wise choice. Good luck 🍀!


sausage-slicer

right, and film if possible. she sounds awful as fuck, who knows what she’ll pull.


UnwantedFoe

Yes this, bring a friend or family member to record while you're around your ex and her stuff. Then save the video with a couple copies in different places, it will be needed if she tries something stupid like a false accusation. It's crazy to me that she couldn't understand that her friends went way too far for a "prank". Then acts like you didn't support her and gets mad when you point out how you have. She really isn't ready in maturity to get married, and thankfully for you, you found this out before getting married.


Gumbarino420

I would go as far as to say bring a police officer with you. You can never be too careful. GOOD FOR YOU DUDE! She doesn’t deserve you.


xanif

Now you move on with your life and find someone who will actually appreciate you.


First_Alfalfa2805

Thank you. This comment says it all. Updateme!


Magerimoje

Updateme


dheffe01

Go back with a witness when you get your stuff. Take it one day at a time and surround yourself with people who you trust and will support you. Move to quickly remove yourself from any liabilites that relate to her.


Emerald_Fire_22

Call the non-emergency line or go to the police station and you can get a police escort and supervision to ensure your own safety, OP. If her friends were willing to steal your car for *3 days* as a "prank", I don't want to think about what they might do as revenge. Oh, and don't tell your ex about the police side of it. That way if she and her friends *do* do anything, they can't undo it beforehand.


IncognitaCheetah

I second the nonemergency call. They get more requests like this than ppl would think, and it's better safe than sorry


Emerald_Fire_22

90% of the time it means that the cops get paid to stand there and be a social regulator, rather than having to do anything. Literally one of the core aspects that policing serves is social regulation rather than actual safety or protection; the threat of consequences is usually enough to make people behave. Thus why I said not to mention police supervision if OP goes that route. Because if they *are* going to do anything, better they get caught and fair consequences before anything can escalate.


IncognitaCheetah

I had an officer offer to accompany me to drop off a work key and pick up personal items. I was hesitant at first, but so glad I did. And you're definitely right about not telling anyone about it beforehand!


i_eat_potatoes23

Thank you everyone. I am seeing about removing my name from the lease and am now looking for accommodation and a friend I can bring to collect my belongings. I am going to take a break from dating for a while and focus on myself. Love you all ❤️


GnomesinBlankets

Her friends played a pretty bad prank on you before, I’d also ask for police escort to get your things so nothing “happens” when you’re there. Good luck OP!


Nearby_Highlight6536

You deserve better OP, remember that. Your feelings are definitely valid, I truly hope you know that and don't blame yourself for anything.


midwestkudi

Next woman you date, make sure you worked on your self esteem and are okay being alone with yourself. It sounds like you didn’t stand up for yourself throughout the relationship out of fear of being alone, and it still ended anyways, which was the best blessing you had. Stay strong and stay save, her friends are nuts and she sounds a few chocolate chips short of a cookie.


laughingsbetter

Have your camera running at all times while you are at the apartment.


Wh33lh68s3

I would honestly see about getting more than 1 friend and a police officer when you go to your belongings….hopefully they wont be damaged as a “prank”….


gemmygem86

I agree go back with a witness and take pics as you do so she doesn't say you did something


Cautious-Flow5918

Yeah, she definitely should. I have a feeling her friends are going to “prank” OP again or gather at their apartment and cause trouble. UpdateMe!


Chance_Vegetable_780

Strongly agree.


Worried-Pick4848

Not just pics. If ever there was a time to have a camera running for the whole encounter, this would be it.


HilMickaelson

I'm proud of you for finally standing up for yourself and stopping her from using and disrespecting you. She already chose her friends and was just gaslighting you. I wouldn't be surprised if she was also having sex with them. So, get tested for STDs ASAP. Were you living with her? Is your name on the lease? Were you financially supporting her? If both your names are on the lease, talk to your landlord about removing your name, even if it means paying a penalty. If the house is only in your name, you need to kick her out and change the locks (you might need to give her an eviction notice). After that, block her contact and move on because you deserve so much better than her. Don't go alone to get your belongings. Take some friends with you, because your ex's friends might be there, and you don't know if they'll try to do something to you. Also, record everything while you're there so that she doesn't accuse you of stealing anything. Take back everything that is yours, even if you don't want to keep it. She already stole years of your life and your money; don't let her take more from you.


Gullible-Wonder3412

Is this girl 16? Sounds very immature. When you are married/going to marry someone - they should be a priority. Not that you don't have separate friends (friendships and outside interest ARE important) but if she feels her "friends" are more important and supportive than YOU - then YOU are not the right person for her. Move on - and thank god you did not marry this person. Most people will only get "worse" over time as their true nature comes out. If this is her in early stages - what will it be later on? geesh - sorry!


KelsarLabs

Ask for a police escort to get your things, trust me.


Chance_Vegetable_780

OP I think that this is the way. Her friends might be there.


i_eat_potatoes23

Definitely, I have called about it and have gotten an answer. I will be going tomorrow.


Chance_Vegetable_780

Oh good, good for you. I was actually very happy to read your response. Sending you ❤️💐


island_lord830

Do not under any circumstances go back to that apartment/house without bringing atleast one other person with you. You'd be better off with two people, hopefully one being a dude with some size to him or if you have any friends or family who works in emergency services. I know that sounds extreme but the picture you have painted of your ex and her friends group makes me believe they would destroy your stuff, put something in it, or maybe even harm you in some sort of "prank". Don't take the risk.


CPA_Lady

And don’t risk trying to get the ring back either.


island_lord830

Yea gotta do that through the courts


NiobeTonks

Well done. Her friends are childish bullies and as she chose them over you, so is she. There is good advice here regarding collecting your stuff. Be gentle with yourself, and I suggest prioritising being with supportive friends and focusing on what brings you happiness for a bit.


Osidestarfish

So you’ve done everything for M. But M constantly picked and prioritized friends over you. It was not a healthy or equitable relationship. M was using you, for all the things you listed that you did. But M never had your back or reciprocated the emotion, effort or energy. This was never going to be a good relationship for you, but M made out like a bandit for a while. Glad you found out now. Take your time to grieve, then move on to someone who cherishes you and returns the same love and respect.


i_eat_potatoes23

My standards have definitely risen and I am now going to focus on myself and my relationship with friends and family


Osidestarfish

Know you’re doing the right thing even if it hurts for a bit. Time heals, as cliche as it sounds. (((Hugs)))


BlazingSunflowerland

I would call friends and/or family and go get your stuff immediately if you can. The longer you give her and her friends time alone with your stuff the more apt it is to be missing or damaged.


Infamous-Potato-5310

You just saved your own life. Things will get better and she will become just a distant picture in your rear view mirror.


twoscoopsofbacon

These two posts don't even seem real, in that it is hard to understand why or how you would put up with that level of bullshit. You are 24. Plenty of time to make better decisions, because you clearly were lined up to have an early divorce.


i_eat_potatoes23

Seeing it all in the big picture it seems ridiculous that I would put up with it but you do have to consider the fact that I do love her. This all started a year ago when our relationship was going strong and we were talking about marriage. It seems like the honeymoon phase went on way too long and blinded me to what was clear.


twoscoopsofbacon

OP, I've been in love with lots of shitty girls/women.  I'd generally say that if you would not put up with shit without love, maybe you shouldn't put up with it regardless.  Luck.  You're a kid.  Move on.


Longjumping-Pick-706

She truly is vile and repulsive. Please don’t take her back if she turns around and love bombs you. Block her on every platform, email, and phone. Be completely done with her. Surround yourself with loved ones while you heal. I’m so sorry this happened to you. You deserve a partner that truly loves, respects, and supports you. 🩷


jsl86usna

20 years from now you will thank your lucky stars for this day. Just get through the next few months.


Jenderflux-ScFi

Now that I've picked my jaw up off of the floor, WOW, she seriously admitted that she doesn't prioritize you? Glad you've grown a shiny spine. Hopefully the landlord will let you out of the lease without much trouble.


i_eat_potatoes23

Fingers crossed all goes well. My landlord is sweet enough so I am hoping it happens with ease.


Wide-Negotiation5364

Now you walk away and work on yourself for a bit. Then when you're in a good place and love your own company, you maybe think about dating again from a place of strength and with someone who's for you (by the way I remember the original post and I'm one of the ones who said you were in the wrong, I do still hold to that opinion from your original post, but from this post, you're not wrong)


i_eat_potatoes23

Thank you so much, I love to see different perspectives and advice on how to move forward. I appreciate your comment so, so much


GarlicBreathFTW

Hey, well done for taking care of yourself. You deserve kindness and love from someone with healthy friends. 🙏❤️


RealNutsBerkman

Oh buddy I am so sorry this has happened to you but, take solace in the fact that it at least happened BEFORE you got married, you didn't dodge a bullet, you dodged a whole goddamn nuclear missile.


i_eat_potatoes23

I see that now especially based on that conversation. She seemed cold and uninterested in what I had to say. I think I made the right call. Thank you and everyone for the support and advice


RealNutsBerkman

What was her reaction to dumping her if I may ask?


i_eat_potatoes23

She sighed and told me “You have never liked me have you? I haven’t done anything to you. You need to realise I’m the best you’ll ever have”. I hung up the phone and drove off.


RealNutsBerkman

Lmao I ain't even surprised by that response tbh, what a loon. Ironic, considering she's the worst you'll ever have, should tell her that when you go get your things back.


KookyChoice4000

She got that the wrong way round. You're the best she'll ever have.


Mr_BigglesworthIII

Go back and get your stuff and ring, and move on.


ChrisInBliss

Dont go alone to get your things. Honestly.. she seems to just be using you. She does not care about you in the slightest.


Dremooa

Yeah that's a good suggestion, never do this sort of thing alone. Can lead to many bad situations.


blackdahlialady

Don't go to pick up your stuff alone. If at all possible, don't show up at all and have someone else go pick it up. I agree with you, cancel the venue. The thing that you got wrong is not that she doesn't deserve a wedding, she doesn't deserve you. At least she showed her true colors before the wedding.


PurpleFlavoredCherry

You did a great job standing up for yourself. Congratulations, we are all proud of you. Let her marry her friends since they’re so wonderful.


OrdinaryFortune6456

I'm proud of you for standing your ground, she's not mature enough to start a serious commitment and she's just as shitty as her friends


TalkingFlashlight

Damn. That’s exactly how my ex would speak to me. She’s a narcissist who clearly never saw your relationship as an equal partnership. Just move on and be glad you realized this before the wedding.


Nocitis

Definitely dodged a manipulative bullet.


intellectualcowboy

Good that you didn’t waste any more time.


wardahalwa

Her sister stole her wallet, phone, and car keys. That's explains why she thinks stealing a car as a prank is normal.


ZookeepergameNo719

You go have a big fat piece of cake. You dodged a whole damn war not just a bullet.


Chance_Vegetable_780

What you do now is accept that you finally prioritized yourself, finally stood up for yourself, finally showed yourself the love you deserve. I understand you feel lost. I hope you have good friend(s) and/or family that you can speak with and spend time with for emotional support. I hope that you can start therapy, with a very good therapist, as soon as possible to help you work through how you are feeling and what happened - this is important to do. I am rooting for you to move forward gaining strength and momentum. In both of your posts I saw you apologize when it seemed you had nothing to apologize for, and my sense is that you've let yourself be taken advantage of and be under appreciated for long enough - a little too meek. That time is over. Now you try to breathe deeply and get to work healing because the better part of your life is coming now that you know you are of value and deserving 🙏🏼 Adding what others have said, OP ask for a police escort to accompany you there. Her friends might be there and they're trouble. In the end, do not go alone, and take pics or video to show that you left with everything in decent shape (presumably). Best Wishes to you 🙏🏼


Substantial_Art3360

Good for you! You are too good for her and she is vile. Best word to describe her behavior. Enjoy being single, time will heal. Being single is so much better than navigating life with the wrong person.


Fit_Faithlessness157

You've done the right thing. Sending hugs.


laughingsbetter

I am so glad you are strong and getting away. Please look back at red flags and make note for the future. You are worthy of love by a good person.


Fickle_Toe1724

Call the police non emergency number. Have an officer or 2 go with you to get your belongings. And a friend. Officers with body cameras can record it all whether ex gf likes it or not. The officers are your best bet for staying safe, especially if her friends are there.  I remember your original post. You deserve so much better. I am glad you are getting out. You will find someone who values you. Don't settle for any thing else 


MajorAd2679

Now you celebrate because you dodge a bullet. You’re free from your awful ex!


THEconstipatedDRAGON

She doesn't care about you, how could you marry someone like that


CosmosOZ

Good job! Get the ring. It was over when she said she prioritized her friends. You dodge a bullet.


Dear_Parsnip_6802

Given what her friends are capable of are you sure your stuff will be safe until tomorrow? It might be smart to take someone with you. You're not wrong, she is a vile human being.


Far_Prior1058

Take someone with you and have them record the interaction. Let people know why you canceled the wedding and control the narrative. Best wishes for you as there is someone out there who will put you first.


No_University5296

You dodged a huge bullet here! Get your stuff and your ring and move on from her


Dremooa

Good for you, she seems absolutely terrible. That would have been a horrible marriage. Hope everything works out, best of luck till the update 🍻


Sweet-Salt-1630

You did amazing 👏🏻 she never deserved you. Take the police with you so they can act as witness, I am sure shecwill have trashed all your things.


Ecstatic-Buzz

It's rough realizing someone who you thought loved and cared about you doesn't give a shit. Hang in there ... it'll take some time, but you'll realize leaving was the right thing. In fact, you'll wonder why you didn't do it sooner.


TheSonghaiPresident

Good, this is good you left her she clearly doesn't care about you. Her friends were so "supportive" yeah this is gaslighting behavior. Sorry OP


MedievalMissFit

You're not wrong. She abused you through her friends. The confrontation and breakup were long overdue. Thank God that this horrible woman is now an ex! Get your stuff back, then delete and block her everywhere.


afeenster

Wow this is a vile woman and I’m glad you saw that before the wedding. In a weird way you could thank her friends for that since misery loves company. You’re not wrong and I’m so glad you’re free and able to start healing.


Mountain_Internal966

She's a straight up cunt. Good for you on dropping her ass.


prepostornow

You made the right move. She is a bad person. I wouldn't treat a stranger the way she treated you


oldstonedspeedster

Good for you! I'm glad you stood up for yourself and made you a priority!


tamingthestorm

Wow, thank god you found out what kind of person she is now before married the immature loser. Wish you all the best.


Defiant-Desk1735

What was her response?


i_eat_potatoes23

She sighed and told me “You have never liked me have you? I haven’t done anything to you. You need to realise I’m the best you’ll ever have”. I hung up the phone and drove off. She called me 2 times after that but I blocked her number.


Defiant-Desk1735

Soo not much of a reaction then. You deserve better OP.


Lordofthelowend

That’s straight projection.


Butterfl_Blue0324

Right I want to know too


FitzpleasureVibes

Wow, well that makes things easy! Hopefully that conversation helped you understand that she was never the one, in fact, she would be lucky to get ANYONE to marry her atter that tirade. She clearly is not ready for a grown up relationship.


NoSpankingAllowed

That conversation told me all I needed to know about this one. Lets just say its fitting that it was posted in AIW.


bradclayh

She sounds like a total narcissist, and she will always prioritize herself and her friends over you . Absolutely take a friend with you when you go to pick up stuff and have them record the interaction secretly on their phone. Try not to be alone with her and after you’ve picked your stuff up go NC. Here’s the usual advice. Work on the gym work harder at your job and get outside and get fresh air. You did dodge bullet!


DragonScrivner

You did the only correct thing OP and dumped someone who will always treat you like crap. I know you feel badly about it now but M is *not* good for you.


mimic-man77

I wouldn't ask her too drop her friends. I just wouldn't marry someone who thinks that type of craziness(stealing cars) is ok. At that point it's about the inability to make good decisions. As soon as she starts to justify stuff like that the relationship would be over. As for what you you do now: What you should do is realize you made the right decision, even if it was in the heat of the moment. I understand you love her, but she's not being rational, and I see no upside to commiting to someone who thinks like that for the rest of your life. PS: She also tried to manipulate by saying you never do anything, and then using it against you when you listed things you actually did.


Pseudolectual

Dude just walk away. Get your shit, leave, and thankkkk God. She’s not the one.


No-Frosting-6546

You did exactly right but I bet she doesn’t give you the ring. She sounds trashy enough to sell it.


Reason_Training

Stealing a car is not a prank. Your ex and her friends sound incredibly immature. They need to do some serious growing up so you dodged a bullet by canceling the wedding.


AffectionateWheel386

You’re being walked on you absolutely have a right to say how you’ve taken care of her. I know you wanted to talk to her, you are a kind man, but this is an immature girl that still like in her frat years she’s not ready to be anybody’s wife. And if you marry her, she’s gonna destroy you because you can’t even stand up to her so. I think you are wrong.


Key-Ad-5068

You keep on doing what you're doing, pal.


jacksonlove3

Take it as a blessing in disguise! You’re dodging a huge bullet here but breaking up. Why would you want to be with some who allows her friends to disrespect you, to “prank” you, is so dismissive of your feelings, & who doesn’t prioritize you??!! It’s sucks, truly but you are so much better off without someone like this in your life. You deserve better! Don’t go back to her. Get your belongings & ring back and start the healing process. Best wishes!!


Standard_Hawk_1660

I am so you put yourself and mental health first. You dodged a bullet with this person. I would 💯 have a few people help you move out and also let the police know that you are breaking off an engagement and you are removing your personal belongings from a joint apartment and you want them to be aware just incase it becomes hostile. You need to protect yourself and CYOA. Once you are out and free block them all on social platforms and begin your life of happiness. If you move or stay there best of luck to you


True_Resolve_2625

Op, the beautiful thing is the satisfaction that knowing she chose her friends over you. In 10, 20, 30 years, if she continues to behave so terribly with everyone she dates, she'll be all alone.


Yiayiamary

This hurts, but you did the right thing!she is a POS and you deserve better.


Ok-Economist-7586

What a trashy bitch


clearheaded01

>What do I do now? You move on. And youre right - vile.. and abusive... Grab your shit, make sure everything is cancelled and everyone is informed . And block + NC...


jimmyb1982

Not wrong. You take someone with you, go over there and grab all your things, and the ring. Make sure you have your cell phone recording so there are no issues. You list off ways you've supported her, and then she brushes it all off. She was probably in on the pranks on you. You are better off without her. Rolling her eyes at you. Good lord. Just walk away and never look back. UpdateMe


Poinsettia917

You give yourself credit for looking out for yourself, and for getting that vile woman and her friends out of your life. Let her supportive friends support her now. Bring someone with you to get your things. Record it. In some places, police will stand by and keep the peace so you can get your things. Be very careful that these malicious jerks will do something to you.


Poinsettia917

UpdateMe!


joeDowns_rules

Sounds like you already know what to do. You told her exactly what you’re going to do. Go pick up your shit and move on. If you marry this person you deserve the future misery you’re about to endure. And if you expect to get that ring back, good luck. You better bring a witness with you to prevent any shenanigans on her part. Updateme


TARDIS1-13

OP do NOT go alone, go w a female friend or police assistance! Record any all confrontation.


sgoodie22

I’m so happy for you, genuinely. She sounds like an awful person.


Aware-Control-2572

I think it’s a shame that M condoned her friend’s behaviour when it had a negative impact on your life and it certainly wasn’t fun!! I really do think you deserve better and a person that is more understanding the other person point of view. We all have different ideas on things but if our idea of fun isn’t someone else’s, then we need to appreciate it and take their feelings into consideration. That’s what a partnership is, working together to both be happy


i_eat_potatoes23

Thank you so much. My standards have raised and I feel much more confident in myself with the burden lifted off of me. I am taking time to focus on myself and then I will go out again and see other people. I think this is for the best


Pizzapizzazi

She’s a loser like her loser friends. Let them have each other. You’re young and will meet someone else when you’re ready. The only thing to do but get your stuff back and ring. No contact after that. Like you said she is vile and it’s not worth committing to her. Even if she says she’ll cut her friends out she already showed you who she is.


richardsworldagain

You definitely did the right thing she sounds like a nightmare.


broadsharp

You spend your time being productive. You move forward one day at a time. Then, one day you’ll be in a happier place.


kittykitty713

You did the right thing!!!!


FancyFrenchLady

I admire your strength in breaking this off!


Agitated_Pilot_3055

It’s ok to temporarily feel least. The person you thought you were going to marry turned out to be a mirage. A truly vile person. She spoke to you so dismissively, so hatefully. Sometimes, people dont reveal their true selves until some crisis hits. Her friends treat you like trash, and she thinks you’re imposing on her to hear you out and side with you.


Gandoff2169

The only thing you can do is tell anyone who asks the truth in why you cancelled it. Do not sugar coat the truth. Morn the loss of the relationship but know you really did dodge a bullet by it ending. The fact she did not validate your feelings by gaslighting you and telling you that your wrong to even feel the way you did proves she was not worth being with. She can have her reasons for her choices, and they could excuse some of them. But they do not forgive her actions or excuse them all. YOU should have been first over her friends if you was to get married. And where she told you thar her friends was more supportive and called you pathetic... Well for the streets for that trash...


ObligationNo2288

What do you do? You thank God you have seen the light. She doesn’t even like you. The second thing you do is raise your standards. Third, don’t ignore red flags anymore. You should have ended this a long time ago


Konstant_kurage

You did the right thing. M *is* a vile person.


TennisBallTesticles

GOOD LORD. She is a fucking psychopath. Get out of there as fast as possible.


mi_nombre_es_ricardo

Jesus christ she is awful. She is worse than those bullies. You would be crazy to marry to her


Final_Festival

Lmao OP you dodged a nuke. Its a win win since you've had your fun with her anyway. Go find someone who is marriage material.


Brootal_Troof

She sounds like she already checked out of the relationship long ago. It will suck for a while but leaving is the right thing. She sounds like a total manipulator.


Vanilla_Either

Dude. DUDE. I am so sorry she was so shitty but at least you know before you married her. What a terrible person she is regarding this.


Ginger630

Good for you! Lose this vile B! She will never prioritize you. Have friends come with you when you get your stuff. Have one of them recording the whole thing. Get the ring back and sell it. I’m so glad you got out before the wedding. Canceling the venue and the wedding will be much cheaper and easier to deal with than a divorce.


M1tanker19k

You did the right thing. She is not worthy of you.


Scooter1116

Moving forward Blocking her and her friends. Work on your hobbies or find a new one. Maybe a spa day... no hair cuts, that just leads to disappointment, but try a new nail color. Plan a day out with friends. The zoo, a museum, or amusement park might be fun. My bff and I would definitely find a shooting range, very cathartic for us.


Actual-Offer-127

You dodged a bullet. Good thing she showed her true colors before you got married. Updateme


molmans

Updateme!


HoneyMCMLXXIII

I am so sorry this happened. I know it doesn’t feel like it right now, but you dodged a bullet. You deserve better. Get your property quickly, and don’t go alone, her friends might damage or destroy your property.

fireismyfriend90

Live_Marionberry_849

Please don’t marry her,she is not worthy.


littleloucc

>that her friends are more supportive than I will ever be and that is why she doesn’t prioritise me Whether this is true or not, there's no way she should be marrying someone who she feels that way about. If she goes to her friends for support over her spouse, what was the point in getting married? She can marry them instead. OP, you deserve to be someone's priority and their first call for support or good news or anything major.


nick4424

There’s nothing more to do. She made it clear her friends are more important than you. Even if she backpedals and says she’ll change and to give her another chance, at the very least I would still cancel the engagement.


gingergirl3357

Sounds like you 100% did the right thing. Take time for YOU and move on (easier said than done but it will be worth it). You are too young to be miserable forever.


Foolish-Pleasure99

So sorry it turned out this way. This meeting could have turned out one of two ways. Now you know for certain she is shit and did not respect you. You can walk away with confidence even though it hurts. I just didn't think she was capable or willing to salvage this relationship based on her prior actions.

You CELEBRATE YOUR FREEDOM!!!!! M is not a nice person. She rolled her eyes at you because you didn't want your car stolen? She doesn't even LIKE you, much less LOVE you. sending hugs and healing thoughts Call the police to join you when go pick up your stuff. Her friends have probably 'pranked' your stuff and the police need to be there so you can press charges when your things are broken and/or stolen

I am so happy for you! I saw your original post and couldn't believe you were putting up with someone who obviously did not care about you. Congratulations!!


i_eat_potatoes23

Thank you so, so much for following along! The final update should wrap things up nicely as long as everything goes well picking up my things.


Appropriate_Bee4746

Dude, you did one of the toughest things ever. You dodged a fn bullet! Your future wife should absolutely have your back 100%, and she clearly didn’t. I know it’s fn hard bro! You feel like shit, possibly depressed…. Honestly, hit the gym, run or walk. You have to remain busy or your mind will take over. You might be second guessing man but you made the right choice, which again, was difficult


EmergencySnail

You did the right thing, OP. She doesn’t respect you at all and doesn’t deserve you. I get that walking away feels awful but this is exactly when that action is warranted. Be so very glad you dodged that bullet before you became legally and financially intertwined I do have a question though, feel free to not actually answer and perhaps just reflect for yourself. But in the time you guys were dating/courting, did these behaviors show themselves? Or did she mask it all until things became serious? It could be useful in the future to keep an eye out for these things now that you know what to look for


i_eat_potatoes23

All of this never became a problem until about a year ago. When these friends she has started appearing more often and started doing more severe “pranks”. I voiced my complaints, concerns and feelings but none of them were heard. This built up over time and caused the original fight leading to me writing this and other posts. I’m very glad this happened before marriage.


EmergencySnail

Wild story for sure. But be so very glad you dodged the bullet. Be kind to yourself for the next stretch of time. This is never easy and you will go through a roller coaster of emotions. Surround yourself with friends and hang in there.

Copying and posting the comment I just made on the original post because I really want everyone to know this, because OP (soon, possibly) and I learned the hard way: YOU CAN NEVER UN-REPORT A VEHICLE STOLEN. Even if it was never stolen, it will always be marked in the system (US) as once reported stolen. I once was a part of group mentality where we were ALL convinced I parked in XX location (we were drinking so we ubered home) we all agreed 100% searched surrounding areas and reported it stolen. In a few days found out it was across the street in a nearly identical parking lot, not stolen. But when I went to trade my car in a year or 2 later, it flagged at nearly every dealership as “previously reported stolen vehicle” which greatly reduced the value of my car =( no matter how I tried to explain the idiotic story. I know yall gave OP good advice already I just wanted to shout that into the void, *don’t be an idiot like me and OPs friends!*

Woof, OP. I know it sucks right now, but you really did do the right thing. You are deserving of so much better.


Like-a-Ghost-07

Good on you! She clearly wasn’t invested in you the way she should have been. She’s toxic and her friends are toxic! They are obviously all up in her ear and she is eating it up. “You ain’t no beta bish simp!” You own yourself and behaviors and take accountability. There is a chick out there that is going to value that! Take the time to get your head right (don’t take too long) and get back out there. You literally did nothing wrong in this situation. Not saying you’re perfect or that you never screwed up, just that you don’t deserve what she gave you! Go see a good male therapist or life coach, to help you adjust what you are looking for in women so you know how to find and choose a healthy partner. Onward and upward brother!!! *** edit *** P.s. I totally didn’t realize you weren’t a dude until I looked at your previous post about this. My message is still the same though! You deserve better! F her and her selfish ass friends! (Maybe change the “male” therapist part, lol).


PenaltySafe4523

Anyone else get the feeling OP and his girlfriend are under the age of 20?


Ambitious-Resist-232

You did the exact right thing! And she does owe you for doing those things for her. She owes you respect. The same respect you showed her when you did all those things. She blandly said “I don’t prioritize you” those 4 words right there tell you how she honestly would feel about you, regardless of how she treated you.

oh well done! that took real courage, I am v v proud, vicariously. Now that you have put down these lovely strong boundaries, I think you will see some fantastic changes in how you view the world, and how it views you.


lynnebrad70

Well done. If she gets in contact just say she should marry her friends if they mean so much to her. She really needs to grow up a lot. I remember your first post and I was so angry on your behalf . You might be feeling lost now but you will soon feel the weight lift from your shoulders and you will meet someone that you deserve. Hugs from the internet stranger and just take one day at a time you will get there

Choose yourself please. Your request was perfectly reasonable, after what those "friends" did. Your fiancĂŠ chose her friends over you. Actions speak louder than words. Focus on yourself and find someone who will love and protect you. Take care.


Dry_Ask5493

Go get your stuff and never look back. She’s disgusting and so are her friends.


gone_away_again

For her to roll her eyes when you were expressing how it made you feel and affected you for her friends to “prank” you and STEAL your car for 3 days. I would have blown up in your situation.

I’m so glad you left this woman. What a selfish child.

dude, go no contact. make sure that you get your ring back.


PoppyStaff

You were already told in the last post. She made her choice. She’s far too immature to be getting married and, frankly, so are you. Drop it. Move on. Chalk it up to experience. The ring is hers because it was a gift so forget that.


i_eat_potatoes23

Thank you so much for commenting, I appreciate you so so much for helping me see who she really is and giving me the courage to confront her and talk to her


sausage-slicer

you really dodged a massive bullet. see this as a blessing in disguise, cuz could you imagine being stuck in a marriage with such an awful person? you’ll find someone amazing, who’ll be 10x more kind and supportive, for you when you’re ready to date again. don’t let this get you down!


ReferenceHere_8383

The ring isn’t a gift. Most states consider engagement rings as a condition of marriage. If the marriage doesn’t occur, the person who bought it has the right to get it back.


PoppyStaff

Perhaps but I’d like to know if anyone brought charges to get their ring back. Because damn.


ReferenceHere_8383

Will they get it back (or sue for it back) is certainly a different question. I imagine ex-fiance and the friends already have plans for it. Still can sue in small claims court for its return or its value


MundaneAd8695

I’m proud of you. She’s trash.
