Reddit Thinks This Woman Is Unreasonable for Forbidding Her Boyfriend from Being the Best Man at His Best Friend's Wedding
Her Reddit post is discovered by the best friend's fiancée as well.
A pregnant woman on Reddit thought she had a solid reason to say no, but her boyfriend’s best man duties quickly turned into a relationship fight.
She had fallen out with his best friend’s fiancée, and that tension spilled over into the wedding plans. Instead of keeping the conflict separate, she told her boyfriend he should skip being the best man and focus on her and their baby. Here’s the full story.
The original poster uses a throwaway account to explain the situation.

That is where the conflict really starts to show.
If she had communicated with the woman, things would have been better.

She shouldn't drag her boyfriend into her conflict with the fiancée.

We just hope she matures by the time the baby is born.

In other words, so immature!

The moment the Redditors saw those words is also the moment they concluded she's the a**hole.

Her actions are a red flag for her boyfriend.

That pregnancy card did not win her any sympathy.
What was the gossip all about anyway?

They want the other party's side of the story.

The fiancée admits she's an a**hole for exposing her like that.
It's just so sad that Reddit had to be the way to end the drama. Involving the internet wasn't necessary.

She's open to making amends.

And the story still leaves one big question hanging.
Redditors agree that the original poster is in the wrong.
And there's some interesting development too. Sadly, the original poster never responded to her friend on Reddit.
We don't know what will happen next, but we do wish the boyfriend gets to be the best man without being stressed by his controlling girlfriend.
Her boyfriend may need a wedding plus a little peace and quiet.
