Woman postpones wedding due to fiancé’s comments about her scars, internet urges her to cancel completely when she reveals incessant teasing throughout the relationship: “I thought he was flirting”

Have you ever heard of negging? It's when someone gives another person – usually a romantic interest – backhanded compliments as a form of manipulation. Insults disguised as flirting are meant to tear down the other person's confidence while simultaneously endearing them to their tormenter. An example would be a comment such as, "You're pretty cute for a red head." It could also take the form of constant one-upping and comparisons. Those who engage in negging also have a tendancy to downplay their mistreatment: "It was just a joke!"

In our story today, a woman realises she has likely been the target of negging from her boyfriend for years. The straw that broke the camel's back occured right before her wedding, leading her to postpone, but internet commenters were more interested in her husband-to-be's history of mean comments directed towards her neck scars – comments she previously took as flirtatious.

It isn't honorable to love someone “despite” their physical flaws. You love them as a whole, including all of their physical attributes.

The scar is a part of her; if he is actively rejecting it, it can also reject him!
