‘It’s me or him’: Girlfriend forbids boyfriend from attending his best friend's wedding, even though he's the only person invited

Weddings: the day of matrimony, bliss, and everything going according to plan. Not! If there's one day that's a walking contradiction of itself, it's your wedding day. Purportedly the 'happiest day of your life' and ultimately ends up being the most stressful, not to mention the planning and money involved to make it happen. Drama emerges a little too easily, when mixing two different families, friends, coworkers (even the Karen in the office everyone hates but you have to invite her anyway). I don't blame couples for choosing the 'small, cheap' route, or even the path to elope. 

To assuage these spikes of cortisol for the couple, the best thing you can do as a friend or guest to the ringed duo is to be a compassionate, compromising, and calm guest. Hey, it's not your wedding day, just give this one to the newlyweds for their efforts to entertain you, and offer you expenseless food, drink, and fun, just to make them feel special. So don't be a 'guestzilla' like the woman in this Reddit piece. Read it to see for yourself.
