Wedding Canceled by Her Mom’s Rumors

I found out my wedding was canceled through a group chat I wasn’t even in. We’d been planning

it for a year, deposits paid, guest list finalized, when my fiancée’s mom suddenly took

over. She hated the venue, mocked my family, pushed a prenup written by her own

lawyer. I pushed back once, and everything shifted. My fiancée said I was “causing stress”

and stopped responding, saying she needed space. A few days later, friends awkwardly

asked why I’d called everything off. I hadn’t. Her mom told people I cheated and was

emotionally unstable, and my fiancée let it spread because correcting it would’ve meant standing up

to her. When I confronted her, she said the rumors “kept the peace”
