23-year-old breaks up with partner after they mock their feelings at a cousin’s wedding, deciding they deserve better than sarcasm and dismissal: ‘He smirked like it was nothing… I told him I was done. I packed my stuff, called a friend, and left.

Some guys just have a psychic ability to know exactly what their partner wants, and Zach here is leaving Nick Marshall in a trail of dust, because nothing says romance like being mocked for having actual feelings at a wedding. This story stars one emotionally literate young man, fresh off the high of watching his cousin break ground as a married couple, and his boyfriend Zach, who seems to think every heartfelt moment is an open mic for snarky commentary. The setup: a beautiful ceremony, a supportive toast, and an audience so wholesome it could power a Hallmark movie marathon. Naturally, Zach responds with the emotional grace of a Twitter troll, whispering quips about "making it your moment" and whether the tears are for this wedding or the one "we're never having." 

Sarcasm is one thing, but turning someone's hard-won pride and vulnerability into a roast session is relationship sabotage at its finest. The real art here is how Zach insists every jab is "just a joke," followed by the classic defense that caring about anything at all is a sign of terminal oversensitivity. Never mind the years of closeted angst, never mind the rare joy of finally seeing love cheered by family instead of whispered about at the buffet. No, the real crime is apparently being sappily invested in hope.
