Ex with same dress

Donna, 23 August, 2021 at 20:36 Posted on Wedding Attire 0 16
My fiancé's ex wife has bought the same wedding dress as me for her wedding next year. I have suddenly gone off it, surprising? Think not! Has this happened to anyone else? Oh well, another fun wedding dress shop for me ... and this time I'm taking family and making it even better than the last time (I went alone) - Silver linings and all that.

    How do you know ? If her wedding is after yours she will look very silly if she’s done it on purpose. If you love the dress I would wear it as you bought yours first.

    Thanks Marcie, found out via her daughter. Bought mine a long time ago - our wedding cancelled because of Covid and being rearranged. Her wedding firsr now. She is very toxic and I don't want the same dress.

    Hi Michelle


    The only possible way would have been if she knew the bridal shop owner and asked to see what I got, and I think that unlikely. It seems a massive coincidence when you think of the hundreds of dresses available to choose from. But sadly, probably just really rotten luck. Thank you, me too 😊

    What would be funny is if you make a wedding video and during the video you mention how cheap your old dress and thus you got a much more luxurious and beautiful one lol!

    There’s a reason they are no longer together. Wear what you like and ignore her; she’s history.

    You'll wear it better anyways 😊
    Plus, blokes don't really think like us ladies when it comes to the outfit. To them it's a dress, what matters to him is you. And to prove it, remember to watch how he looks at you when you walk down the aisle 😉

    That has to be one of the most selfish thing I have heard. Of all the dresses out there she chose the same as you. I don't see why you should have to change your dress if she got hers after yours. you will lose so much money by doing this and it doesn't seem fair at all. Could you change your dress in anyway by adding a sparkly layer or accessories?

    Wow!! Exes are the best aren't they! she clearly is jealous of the fact you have what you have and it is sad she has done this but I would laugh it off as a compliment! My H2B Ex wife does this sort of thing all the time, whenever we do something or buy his daughter something she does the same a few days later, we just laugh it off. The main thing is he is marrying you and as hard as it is, just forget her and ignore it, she is probably wanting a reaction so the worst thing for her is for you not to react, it will pee her off more and you have the satisfaction of being the bigger person. Good Luck in whatever you decide to do X
