This mom just found out her son failed a Tinder loyalty test… set by his own fiancée. Her contribution to the wedding? Cancelled. Her faith in this relationship? Wobbling.
Her 23-year-old son proposed only a few months ago, but trouble in paradise didn’t take long to brew.
“Recently, he admitted to me that he had been texting with a girl he met on Tinder. That alone already shocked me. He’s engaged, and that’s obviously not acceptable behavior,” the mom revealed.
“Creating a fake profile to trap your partner? That’s manipulation”
Taking to Reddit, the mom dropped a plot twist that not even a reality TV producer could see coming.
“The girl on Tinder was actually his fiancée,” she wrote. “She made a fake account to ‘test’ whether he would stay loyal. When he flirted back, she confronted him.”
Fair to say, he didn’t pass the temptation test, leaving wedding plans up in the air. The mom isn’t exactly thrilled, and she’s concerned about what this means for the foundation of their marriage.
“What my son did was messed up. But creating a whole fake profile to trap your partner? That’s manipulation,” she insisted.
“If you have to run sting operations to trust your fiancé, maybe you shouldn’t be getting married.”
She revealed to the forum that she’s taken a firm stance in response to the couple’s antics.
“I told my son I wouldn’t be paying for the wedding anymore. I don’t want to support a marriage that already starts with lies and games from both sides.”
“The fear was well-founded”
The comment section largely agreed that the couple isn’t ready to tie the knot.
“That doesn’t sound like a healthy relationship. Honestly, if the girl is smart, she should break it off,” one commenter wrote.
“They don’t sound mature enough for a marriage,” another added.
Still, some defended the fiancée’s decision to catfish her groom-to-be.
“The fiancée needs to bail. This dude is going to be trash, and mommy clearly enables it,” one user claimed.
“They appear to be blaming the catfish fiancée more than their own cheating spawn,” another pointed out.
A third chimed in: “You can’t be too mad if someone ‘tricks’ their partner and finds out they were right. It’s not my speed, but the fear was well-founded.”
Much of the family failed to have her back, too.
“Some people in the family say I’m overreacting and punishing both of them,” she revealed.
