    AITAH for breaking up with my fiancé and also refusing to speak to my family because they defend her?

    "I don't think I can trust her again"
  • 02
    I (31M) broke up with my ex fiancé (31F), about 6 months ago. I had being with her for 6 years and it was going extremely well, we were due to marry in a few months and I was excited to have children with her. Honestly I do still love and miss her but trust is important too and I don't think I could trust her again. My ex fiancé was very well loved by my parents and siblings.

    Anyway one day my then fiancé thought it would be funny to prank me so she got one of her work friends (who I had never met) to knock on our door one day and when I answered the door this man who she knew from work claimed that he was married to my fiance.

    He claimed that he had married her a couple of years before I met her and that she had walked out on him and was now planning to commit bigamy with me. She acted like it was true and pretended to be shocked to see him before they revealed it was a prank.

    As soon as this was over I told my now ex fiancé that it was NOT funny and I didn't think I could ever trust her again so I left her the same day.

    Anyway my family who is very fond of her tried to convince me to get back with her, they were angry with me and accused me of overreacting and my parents in particular claimed that what she did was funny and I should have just 'laughed it off'.

    I basically told them all that unless they would accept that I did the right thing and apologise to me | wouldn't associate with them.
  • 08
    This was 6 months ago and I have staunchly refused any attempt from my family to reconnect even though they are upset that I'm not speaking to them, I have continued to maintain that if they want me to forgive them they need to accept that I did not overeact and I would like them to apologise but they have still refused to do so, so I'm still not speaking to them.

    mother you abandoned and see how funny it is when it is revealed it is just a prank. They just might understand your point of view after they themselves experience such a prank.

    mcmurrml 18h ago I don't know why people do these stupid over the top pranks. Who are they supposed to be funny too? I have one that is just as bad if not worse. Happened to my friends husband. This was in the days before everyone had computers and cell phones.

    Someone calls and tell him he had a baby from a girl in college that he was not aware. Talking to his friends who were all in the same fraternity all of these guys had gotten calls. It was a stupid prank and what made it bad is one of the guys who got a call wife had just had a

    e. So for a time she thought the so called joke was real until it got figured out. These so called jokes are not funny and people can hurt.

    WinterFront1431 • 18h ago I honestly hate when people do so-called pranks to hurt their partner. Like fake cheating, etc.

    Hurting your partner is not funny because that hurt, and that drop in your stomach doesn't go away just because they revealed it was a pranks. I hope she's embarrassed

    • Extra Simple_7837 18h ago The interesting thing is that when people decide to prank somebody else, they cause shock, and they cause suffering. And then they think it's funny. And then, because. they're so self-centered, they think that because they knew

    all along it wasn't real, it shouldn't be a big deal to the person that they hurt. But they intentionally harmed somebody. For fun. It's kind of like the massive number of videos on Instagram of people scaring their babies or videotaping them having vaccinations that make them

    cry or videotaping them, getting their ears, pierced as babies and watching them cry. or making them struggle to crawl to their bottle when they are really hungry. This is all cruelty. It's mindless cruelty. It's people who have no insight into themselves. And when they do this, it's
