Dad storms out of his own son’s wedding reception because the groom refused to dance with his stepmother

  • A groom did not dance with his stepmother during the mother-son wedding dance
  • This angered his father, who left the place after finding out.
  • The father took to Reddit to ask if he was wrong to do so.

A father took to Reddit to ask if he’s wrong to walk out on his own son’s wedding after denying his stepmother a mother-son dance.

Arriving at the wedding venue, the father said the atmosphere was “great” until he later learned that his son had turned down the dance.

The man revealed that his son’s mother passed away when he was just 13 years old and his stepmother entered his life three years later, and the two have never really bonded. The son also decided to move in with his aunt when his father remarried.

More than 14,000 people joined the Reddit conversation and shared their thoughts on who they think is wrong.

‘My son ‘Jordan’ is 27 years old. His stepmother ‘Natalie’ came into his life when he was 16. His mother passed away when he was 13, ‘the Reddit post read.

‘Jordan never really considered Natalie as his mother. He refused to let her get close and shut down all attempts at a close relationship. He even moved in with his aunt months after Natalie and I got married.

“Over the years, they began to reconcile and see each other more frequently. She invited us to her wedding that took place days ago.’

At the wedding, Natalie explained what had happened, leaving him feeling “irritated and quite upset” before he decided to leave.

“I received calls from my family after they saw me leave. And Jordan called later and I told him why I did it,” the father wrote.

“He got mad and said it was his wedding and his aunt is basically a mother to him and said Natalie shouldn’t expect ‘special treatment’.

‘I said it’s not a special treatment but a tradition. On top of that, he hurt his feelings for no other reason than to be malicious. He took offense and accused me of ruining his day and causing a scene.

“Now the family has sided with him and said I shouldn’t have left no matter what.”

The father then took to Reddit to ask, “Am I the idiot for leaving my son’s wedding?” Reddit users struggled to see the father’s side and wrote lengthy responses, saying his wife could never replace the mother of his son (file image)

Reddit users struggled to see the father’s side and wrote lengthy responses, saying that his wife could never replace the mother of his son.

You can’t force people to join. Both you and Natalie need to accept that Jordan accepts Natalie into her life, but not as a mother figure before she doesn’t have any of you in her life anymore,’ one person wrote,’ one person wrote ,

Your wife has never been his mother and he has every right not to have a mother-son dance with her. I strongly suspect this is not the first time he has chosen his wife over his child and that is probably why he moved in with his aunt,” said another.

‘It seems that the son was beginning to build a relationship with her. Congratulations on ruining all the hard work his wife and his son put in to get comfortable with each other,” added a third.
