My friend.... a Runaway Groom

November 1, 2010 10:04pm CST
I can't believe I have witnessed a civil wedding ceremony with a bride waiting in vain for her groom! Oh, seeing the girl was such a pity, worst, having to announced to the guests of the wedding cancellation was a pain to succumbed with.. I really didn't understand why my friend decided not to pursue with the wedding, the groom at that instance. Could it be that he realized he doesn't love his girl, or could it be that he wasn't ready for certain responsibilities of that obligation? I feel sorry for the would-be-bride because she was carrying their child at her 2nd trimester pregnancy..I secretely sob a tear for the scenario I've seen, a hurtful scene actually.. I don't know whom to blame, my friend groom-to-be or his girl??

Well, it's possible that the groom is still in a shock and realized that everything just doesn't fall right in to place. It's possible too that the groom just had a cold feet and might be able to come to his senses. This is really embarrassing on the part of the girl and her family and to think that she's pregnant. Her situation might be the reason why the groom backed out. He wasn't ready for anything at all. I think both should be blamed for whatever happened. if they're marrying because she got pregnant, that's foul already.

Yeah. It's foul play if that's the reason. How can they have an everlasting marriage if they were just forced to do it because of an unborn child? A lot of couples these days have the same situation.

True enough, that's absolutely adding insult to an injury..the guy's nowadays being hunted by his conscience, he couldn't figure out if he did the right thing. The girl should not force the issue too far, otherwise that is an involuntary relationship, so to speak..

It's like a fairy tale story. It is really a pity on the ppart of the girl. I think she will overcome with that trauma and I am sure there will a good life waiting ahead of her. That guy is not worth crying for.

Exactly, that kind of guy is not worth it. He has to send himself to isolation...hehe

wow, I didn't know things like that happen in real life I can only imagine how painful that would have been for the bride to be and her family. The guy should not have agreed to marry the girl in the first place if he thinks that he is not ready for it, at least he would have spared her the shame the second time around. Its bad enough to be pregnant outside marriage but to be ditched on her wedding day, that is so terrible

in the first place, the guy should have refused the marriage proposal plan so he wont be able to embarrass the girl and her family in the public. if hes not ready, he could have said NO to the wedding but not in the manner of shaming and humiliating a pregnant girl and her family in the public.

it is so pity for the girl. she is suffered not only because she was ashamed by the groom in the wedding day. but because she is pregnant too. second trimester is difficult to cope when the one who you love runaway from you. and dont want to take responsibility of his child. for me, it is the groom's fault. i mean, if he didnt want to have a responsibility that he could have probability of having child by doing "sleep thing". then just dont do it.a gentleman will not runaway from his responsibility. this groom is a coward who let the girl take the responsibility alone. the groom dont even think about the baby inside. it can cause traumatic situation when a baby felt her or his mother suffer and crying. when the baby born, he will feel a big feeling of hating his or her father because of what he or she felt inside.it is not for the growth of the baby. poor bride and poor child. i really hope that groom will take responsibility and didnt act like a coward.

I'd like to believe that he cares about his bride to be and their unborn child, but it's the impending responsibilities and obligations that makes his cowardice act evident...

Maybe the guy isn't ready yet and freaked out. Is he forced to marry the girl because they'll soon have a child? That's a very sad thing. Poor bride. Just make her happy for now. You should also protect the baby as well. If the mother is stressed out, the baby is affected. So try to calm her down. And try calling the runaway groom.

really feel sorry for the bride, that was really a hurtful scene. I just hope your friend, the groom have thought of the consequences that will arise before doing that thing that eventually leads to pregnancy.
