A newlywed has taken to Reddit to ask users if she was unreasonable for leaving her own wedding after becoming annoyed with her “immature” husband.
The couple had been in a relationship for three years before marrying, with the woman saying she had never known her 29-year-old partner to be “selfish” but just “occasionally immature”.
She wrote: “These problems arose when those stupid cake-smashing videos got popular and my husband thought they were hilarious.
“I’ve never thought they were funny and he knows that, yet he was always showing me the videos of those poor wives getting the happiest day of their life ruined by their a***** partner for some cheap laughs.
“He also knows I have a history with cake smashing.”

She explained that her family “does the cake-smashing thing” which happened on her 17th birthday when she pleaded with her mom not to do it.
The woman said: “She promised and I trusted her. I had my hair and makeup done up all nice and right as I blew out my candles my mom pushed my head into the cake and one of the decorations on the cake ended up slicing my forehead.
“Not enough to go to the hospital but enough for some substantial bleeding.
“My birthday was ruined and after I wouldn’t come out of my room. My mom still calls me a brat for that.”
The new bride said she had warned her husband that if he ever did anything like to her, she would leave him – but he didn’t take her seriously.
She added: “Now skip to a few days ago when my wedding happened. Everything was perfect, I was happy, he was happy. I was excited for our new lives as newlyweds.
“I felt like a princess in my poofy white dress and done up hair with perfect make-up. All very expensive things I would like to mention.
“We get to the cake-cutting part and as I turn to him he scoops up a huge chunk of our wedding cake and smashes it all over my face.
“Everything just seemed to go in slow motion for a few moments. He’s just laughing at me, and then says ‘you should see your face’ and continues to laugh. Other people in the crowd (mostly my family) are also laughing at me.
“Then I just start walking away, he realizes that I’m leaving and tries to catch up with me and says I’m being extra. I push him away and order an Uber.
“As I got outside most of the crowd was following me telling me to come back. I get into the Uber and drive away.”
She said the taxi took her back to their apartment to pack up her things before she went to stay in a hotel.
She added: “My family and his family have been blowing up my phone for days. Saying I’m being childish and my husband is a good man and it was just a joke.
“My husband has been calling me off the hook telling me to please come home and that he wants to talk. That he’s sorry and didn’t think I’d get that ’emotional’.
“This was supposed to be the happiest day of our lives and he embarrassed me in front of everyone for some prank that he knew I hated.”
The disgruntled bride also explained that her husband “ruined a $500 cake” as well as her makeup, hair and the top of her wedding dress.
She went on to explain that she still loved her husband, and asked Reddit users if she was “too hard on him” which “seems to be everyone else’s opinion”.
One user said: “This is a glimpse into the rest of your marriage. He completely disregarded what you specifically told him not to do.”
Another said: “Leave him you drew a boundary and he crossed it. You told him beforehand you’d leave if he did this and he not only humiliated you on your wedding day, he showed you he doesn’t listen to you or respect you.”
“I would contact a lawyer immediately and get an annulment/divorce,” a third added.
