Hm, just a little bit of a gut feeling here, but it feels like there was a definite reason that the bride's mom wasn't told about the surprise proposal at play. Seems like she very well might've done something to mess up the whole operation, because she sounds like she's just a little consumed by her own selfish concerns. It's not often that you witness someone stage a whole fit about their kid's proposal because they weren't made aware of it, but here we are. Perhaps, take a deep breath, mom.

    Organism - Group post by New Member • 26m Our daughter got engaged over the weekend to a man that we love and approve of. He asked my husband for her hand in marriage when both families were in Vegas together. I was not privy to the conversation. In fact, I didn't even know it was taking place. And I knew nothing about it until dinner the next night when we were all together and he asked our daughter to marry him, in front of all of us and the entire restaurant. I was the only one besides our da

    Font - know. There were 8 of us in the group. I tried to scramble to set down my drink when I realized what was happening. I knocked over my drink, spilled it all over the table onto my phone, all over my glasses, all over me. I was confused because I was sure that our soon to be son in law would have talked to my husband and I and ask for her hand in marriage, but I didn't say anything about that. We congratulated everyone, and his mother got video and photos, and we had to have the table clean

    Font - then we sat down and ordered dinner. That was when I found out the truth. So, the Question had been asked the day before. My Brother in law who came to Vegas with us, was there when it happened. It was not revealed to me...by ANYONE. It was requested that I would not know about it until it happened. And my husband and brother in law did not tell me. And because I was not in on it, I

    Font - missed out on taking my own pictures, taking my own video, and missing out on something that I can never get back, because I was so busy worrying about having spilled my drink onto my phone and all that, I missed out on enjoying the moment. I feel betrayed. I'm angry, I'm furious, I'm pretty much DONE with all involved in this betrayal.

    Font - Think about it this way: There are all these strangers in the restaurant. I am now ONE OF THEM. Even a lot of the waiters and waitresses knew about my daughters impending engagement. STRANGERS KNEW AND I DID NOT. I was on the outside looking in like they were. There were 8 people in our party at our table, and 2 of us were unknowing of what was to come. My daughter is NOT supposed to

    Font - know. I, however, SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOLD. And I wasn't. And nothing will ever be the same again. I can't go back and have a do over. I can't get that moment, that one of a lifetime moment, back. EVER. It's done. And so am I.... I had to sit through dinner making conversation, pretending to be happy and excited while being told how they didn't tell me ON PURPOSE. I had to choke down my food, and ACT like everything was fine.

    Font - And then we FINALLY got it all over with and then we went into the casino to drink and play. And I was able to get away from everyone and just walk the casino away from them. It didn't help, but it was better than sitting there letting everyone think I was fine. I just wanted to go somewhere alone and quiet and cry and scream. But, I couldn't.

    Font - We walked back to our hotel, and I just wanted to be alone. I wasn't going to have that opportunity until we actually got back home. I guess I did well hiding how I felt, because no one suspected, and not one still knows. We got back home Sunday night and it wasn't until Monday that I was alone and could scream and cry and vent. I feel so betrayed and straight up

    Organism - disrespected. I will NEVER get over this. This is our only daughter. I was kept from knowing something that I SHOULD have known. And now I'm just done with everything. I'll keep pretending that everything is fine, but I will never, EVER, be fıne with this. I will never forgive and I will never forget.

    Font - A word to any man who thinks that keeping a secret like this is a good idea. IT IS NOT. DON'T DO IT. Keep your wife informed of things like this that pertain to your children. This should have been the best night of our lives. While it is AWESOME that he finally popped the question, it is devastating to me and a slap in the face that I was not in on it. And I will never forgive all that were involved in it. Betrayal at it's finest. That's what this

    Organism - was. I feel like I was just one of the unsuspecting, not part of our party, patrons dining in the restaurant. Not worthy of being in on it. I'm no one. I'm not First Class, Business Class, Coach, I'm not even STAND BY. I am no one. I've learned my station in this marriage, in this

    Organism - relationship. I get it. I hear everyone LOUD AND CLEAR. Men, if you actually love your wife and don't want her to feel like me, don't keep her from something like this. It will end everything. 9 You and 132 others 612 Comments
