We're all about breaking the rules and adding some spice into the mix, but there are some traditions that simply cannot be broken. When it comes to another woman's wedding day, we're the type of girls who stick to tradition unless told otherwise. Even though we might look really good in white, we would never wear a white dress to a wedding unless the bride literally tells us to. When Kelly Kapoor (played by Mindy Khaling) pulls up to a wedding in 'The Office' in a white dress and Meredith calls her out on it, she claims that there was an emergency, which is why she had to wear white. She reveals to the audience that she actually just looks really good in white. It's hilarious in a TV show but in reality? Not so much. In today's 'Am I The A$$hole' post, a woman tried to get away with wearing an off-white dress to the wedding of a woman she didn't even know. Scroll down for all the drama that comes with making a decision like that.

    Font - This happened during this weekend, me being in my early thirties and my gf in her late twenties. I was invited to a wedding ceremony of a colleague and could bring someone with me. I asked my GF that I've been dating for a year if she would like to join me and she was really happy because

    We love when we could bring plus ones to weddings! It makes them all the more bearable.

    Font - she apparently loves weddings. Since we don't live together I drove to pick her up so we'd have some time to spare before the ceremony.

    Font - As she comes out she looks really beautiful and has obviously put in time to fix her hair and make-up. She's also wearing an off-white dress that was rather ornate. As she got in I told her that she looked stunning, but I asked if she could change to a different colored dress for the ceremony. I'm not one

    Font - for etiquette by far, but one of the few things I have heard everywhere is that you should not wear a white dress to a wedding unless you're the bride. She became pretty upset and wanted to know what was wrong with her dress. I said that it would be inappropriate to wear a

    Font - I told her that I don't know what the dress code is for this ceremony, but since it's not saying "all white clothes" I still thought she should change to another color but white or "almost-white" - because my colleague was getting married and we had

    Font - no idea how she felt about it. My gf became really upset and told me that I was trying to control what she was wearing and that it was abusive, which honestly made me really upset and hurt. I said something along

    Font - the lines of "F.: k, well you shouldn't go to a wedding with an abuser then" and then I told her to f k off out of my car. She began to cry and wanted to apologize and give me a hug, but I just told her to get out, which she did

    Font - as if I was in the right since it was my colleagues wedding and it was better to be safe than sorry, but I'm also not sure if I was being an asshole about the situation. So, reddit AITA?

    Font - Mother_of_Dogs3 · 10 hr. ago NTA. Your GF should have known better. Unless you KNOW the couple and they have no issue or it's a request, you don't wear white. She also overreacted and you did the right thing by asking her to not go and to get out of your car.

    Font - swordfish2021 · 9 hr. ago NTA. Calling someone an abuser is a massive allegation, and making such unfounded allegations is a form of abuse in and of itself. It shouldn't be taken lightly.
