@@joemama-hf6wp he's telling her what to do when it's HER dress, he's headset on telling her what to do and bossing around his fiancé and telling her what to do with her body and making her dress day about him.
That straight "Yeah, I hate it too" and "I wanna hear what he thinks" before giving her own opinion, plus the fact the mom says that she's easily swayed by the fiance just really says she doesn't have a good level of self esteem and she's gonna be a victim of an emotionally and psychologically abusive relationship.
EXACTLY what I was thinking. If I were Mom, I think I would've turned around and left, and either waited on the couch, or gotten a snack. Maybe (MAYBE) that would've smacked baby girls conscience. This jerk reminds me of my sons last gf, all about HIm
This girl is entering an abusive marriage. I feel so bad for her. I can already see him isolating her from her friends and family so that he can control her better.
“Theres a saying that ive heard that rules are made to be broken” “The only thing thats going to get broken today are your legs if you stay up here” I LOVE MONTE SO MUCH 😭🙏
That groom was practically every toxic stereotype in one "I'm 6'4"" meat sack. When he threw his size out as a reason to get his way I wanted to scream. I guess being a tall man means no one can ever say no to you? So gross. And dangerous. He gets all the 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩
Yeah, to me - and I had a violent, controlling ex - he was every red flag going. I didn't listen to my own mum and regretted it - I was lucky we were only engaged and not married. I broke up with him when he threatened to kill my parents.
@@Joy6168 - Yeah it was a no brainer at that time. I realised there was NOTHING I could do to please him and my parents were my whole world, my late mum especially was my best friend as well as my mum. I couldn't imagine basically being responsible for something terrible happening to them if I stayed with him. So I broke up with him.....it was bad for a while. He wouldn't take no for an answer and my parents didn't know what he'd been doing as I always explained things away (and he was careful to only bruise or cut me where it would be hidden by clothes, and of course there were other ways to hurt me....so many.) So to see women like this it breaks my heart......
@TroubleMcTrouble-I bet this brought up a lot of traumatic flashbacks for you, watching this episode. Unfortunately, I know what you mean when you had said that he made sure to hide the abuse he was inflicting on you in a multitude of ways, as well as that you deflected and played down just how the abuse was out of denial that it was really that bad, until it started, again. I don't know you, however, as a stranger who's been in similar situations, I'm very proud of you for making the difficult yet necessary decision to leave. Let's just pray that this woman and several like her realize the abuse they're suffering and leave.
This girl needs to run for the hills. The groom is totally disrespectful to the brides mother.. rolling eyes etc. I bet he totally separates them after the wedding if it takes place
My dad ressembles much like him. Exactly like him. He separsted my mom from her mom (took her to another country) and right when my mom wanted to leave and escape my mom had me and my brother so she felt stuck. I witnessrd every single argument and well its not fun. Shes like my mom. My moms a lot stronger noe but its reslly hard to stand up againdt an abusve person. I really hope she will go through the comments bc omg she needs to leave. It never ends. Once abuse, manupilation, and control starts it never ends..
Exactly. Partnership doesn’t mean always making every decision together. It can mean being ok with your partner to make their own decisions because you respect and trust them
I see the toxic future for this marriage before it even starts. She's blinded by it because she thinks she's in love with him. He SCREAMS narcissist. Both my mother and I fell into very similar situations to this girl. I didn't marry my narcissist, but she married hers. I really hope she gets out of it soon if the wedding even went through
He is controlling and manipulative. He will watch her every move, and make her life with him horrible. What does she see in a self centred jerk like him??
When he said " I'm 6'4 and no one is kicking me off the floor." I see a Narcissistic who doesn't want to lose control over his bride to be. I don't see this marriage lasting long. 😵💫
“My ex husband didn’t see me in my dress and it didn’t help my marriage survive” hate to break it to you but I don’t think that’s the reason the marriage didn’t work out
Seriously? It had nothing to do with "seeing the wedding dress before the wedding." It had EVERYTHING to do with the guy being a bully, a misogynist, a jerk & an asshole!
Yeah that's the whole point of what shes saying. Everyone says if he sees you in the dress the relationship will fail, it's just dumb lol. Most marriages fail anyways nowadays
Controlling. Possibly abusive. Also possibly only marrying her because his ex in her family and he’s finding a way to stay close. Either way? Bad vibes surrounding this dude entirely.
Yep. I didn't even think about the fact that his ex is in the family. Part of me feels like all of us in the comments might be reading this too far, since this is edited, scripted, produced etc. But this doesn't give him a good look either!
Exactly what I was thinking. It's really sad too, the mom said ''Sam is very easily swayed by Michael'' it just further sealed it for me. It's sad that she has such a low self-esteem to the point she allows herself to be his doormat
Seems really “cute” when the bride gives the groom the control and final say in all choices. After the wedding, the cuteness fades quickly, and the war begins. (His old girlfriend probably woke up to his game and wisely left.)
Think about what fresh hell it must be for his ex gf to have him marry into the family, she’ll never be rid of him! I bet that’s why he is even marrying this girl, to get closer to the one who “got away”.
@@PinkiTadinki If you're used to certain behavior, it can be hard to see it as destructive or wrong. It's the idea of a frog in a pot of water that's slowly brought to a boil. This is *especially* true of abuse or put-downs, especially if you see this behavior in you family or social circle. Don't blame the victim for the bully's behavior!
It's obvious, compared to his ex, she's definitely NOT his type.The only is thing they have in common they're both desperate for attention. He wants to be put on a pedestal and they're both eager and willing at all cost to make their ex's jealous. Did anyone catch that her friend Tiffany looked alot like his ex in their Highschool pic?
Ooooh I was with a guy like this for 4 years. I was scared to go out to the supermarket if I hadn’t told him first. It brought out the absolute worst in me. I’m so glad I got out!
"My first husband did not see me in my dress & it did not help my marriage survive..."... WHAT in the heck?? Between that & the obvious codependency of needing husband #2 to have a say so in HER dress, this is such an insecure young woman!
My boyfriend and I are going to a wedding next week, I bought a new dress and hadn’t shown it to him yet and asked if I could put it on to show him and get his rating. He said “10/10” without even seeing it yet, I said “babe let me put it on” and he said “it’s a 10/10 off you and a 15/10 on you, I already know that” Like damn this man trying to get me to cry. I know he will be happy in whatever I wear when we get married.
Monte: "the only thing that's gonna get broken are your legs if you stay up here!" 😂😂😂🙃 Lorie & Monte are SOO hilarious making fun of the douchebag groom. Hahaha I love them
He's really creepy and so immature. Girl you don't need a new dress you need a new man. The one you have is a childish pouting baby. Mum talk some sense into your daughter. This is not the man for her, she deserves better.
4:08 the way he breaks character like he drops the facade for a split second and that’s actually terrifying. I hope she can learn to stand up for herself ❤
That’s a problem. Lori tells the bride “Tell me what YOU think” and instead of her expressing how she feels in the dress she says “I want to know what Michael thinks.” That is a huge No No for me. If she can’t vocalize her own opinion without the consent of someone else, then there could be an issue down the line. Just my own opinion.
Omg Monte, I bloody love you 😄 This groom is a control freak & she is headed for a miserable marriage. No groom should be dress shopping, it should be a surprise
When a bride can’t even offer her own opinion first but asks for his before giving her own, that’s scary as hell. I hope he’s not abusing her & isn’t abusing his proximity to his ex being part of the same family. 🚩 🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩 🚨 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨
I spent 5 years in a physically and emotionally abusive relationship and the level of control he has over her is scary. The fact she refuses to voice her own opinion unless she gets his first makes me feel sick to my stomach. I’m truly afraid for this woman’s wellbeing. I hope the wedding never went ahead or at least she has by now walked away and never looks back!!
Look out, girlie. The way he competes with your mother is the way he will compete with you in the future. He has to win and he is never wrong, never will compromise with you. Wow. So sad.
The Grooms should NOT be at the Wedding Dress appointment! It is a Mother/Daughter time!!! I think he is arrogant & childish! Good luck to their marriage🌹
This girl must be hella insecure to settle for a man like this. He's so disrespectful. The fact that she got kinda emotional speaking about her former marriage, she's still hurt & chose this jerk to feel wanted & validated. Also is he paying for the wedding? "I'm not going anywhere!" Wow the nerve! Ladies you deserve better don't settle for less!!!!
Yup if he can get his ex to cheat on her brother with him.....let's face it, that's the ONLY reason he's marrying her - it's way for him to be close to his ex. Such a damn stalker.
He is TROUBLE, scary trouble. Mom is right not to like him. The bride will find out the hard way, unfortunately, but hopefully move on to greener pastures.
And run fast!!! In would love to know how this marriage is a few years down the road. A controlling husband like him? I don't give it much of a chance. And to be so rude to his future mother-in-law??? 🤬
This guy is clearly overbearing and very egoistic. I believe he's still in love with his ex and only marrying this girl to get back at her. It's his way of staying close to her. Totally creepy. Throw the whole wedding and family away.🚮
I was half paying attention while she was explaining it and I started listening at that part and my mind was doing some mental math to try to figure it tf out
He said “I’m 6’4” like that’s supposed to mean something. Like what are you gonna do you are in a bridal shop. Very prideful and disrespectful. Imagine what it’s going to be like later down the road.
What’s worse is, he isn’t 6’4, clearly. But he wants to be intimidating and that’s his response when he feels threatened. I worry for this girl’s future.
@@shepherdboy9692 I didn’t tell my husband what to wear and I asked him what kind of dress he liked and went ended up getting a dress that was similar to what he described. My point with him was that it was about winning.
Oh males coming into lori beauty salon thinking they are gonna stay throughout the entire appointment. Adorable. Also can I say the real winner it seems the ex girlfriend married to the brother. Seems she escaped a mad man.
I mean, isn't that a red flag on itself? The ex gf married her brother and then HE decides to marry Samantha...that on itself would be a bit too much for me..there's too much familiarity between them already and it makes me doubt his motives especially with his stank attitude
