Today, whilst trying on wedding dresses with my mom, she told me that I looked fat and awful in the dress I liked. When I told her how hurtful she was being, she told me that I should be grateful that she told me what she thought instead of laughing at me behind my back. FML

Better now than at the wedding.

Honesty is the best policy. She could've been nicer about it, but you can still try on plenty more dresses to find the one you LOVE instead of the one you LIKE ;)

I agree. Sure, the mother could be nicer about it, but I'd rather people be honest about how an outfit looks on me than lie and tell me I always look good when I don't.

People need to become masters at the form of communication called TACT. It's goal is to balance truth and kindness in harmony. like kung fu, but better

honestly, the truth really doesn't need to come out EVERY time. ( and when I mean truth, I mean the mother's opinion ). I hope what she's said doesn't keep you from having a happy wedding OP.

Exactly what does Paul Pierce have to do with this...?

I hope you replied with, "oh, so I look just like you do everyday?"

Don't let her opinion get in the way of the best day of your life!! Congrats op, hope you have an amazing wedding.

That's rude. Sorry OP, but don't stoop to her level, just raise above it and keep your chin up.

Show her the wrath of Bridezilla. That should shut her up.

that's something more frightening than a horror movie! "IM THE BRIDE!!"

wow... that's more than a little cruel. I wonder if she's always like that. your fiance thinks you are beautiful, and beauty does NOT come in one size. your mother needs to learn some ******* tact and get some maturity. I'm sorry one of the special parts of your upcoming wedding was ruined by rudeness

so okay maybe it was rather blunt. but i would rather know than turn up on my wedding day possibly not looking my best.

You can tell someone that the dress doesn't suit them without being insulting.
