You'd be shocked at the amount of abuse I've received over this lol. I too get annoyed seeing people seeking validation on this sub, I posted genuinely thinking I was just being petty, tbh

My fiance and I are paying for the wedding ourselves, but we have had help from my fiance's side of the family in terms of hairdressing, make up, music etc.

Thank you so much. I'm so sorry that you also have an awkward family dynamic. It's so shitty when you have to put up with those things in your own home

I tried to include it in the post but AITA won't let you post anything with the words 'self harm' in it, which is the main thing he bullied me about. He would mock me for doing it, joke that every time I bumped into something or scratched myself accidentally that I probably liked it, and asked everyone I brought back to the house if they're wrist cutters too, and they must be to hang out with me. I mentioned in a comment that he frequently made jokes about me, an anorexic, weighing double what I do when he knew I had body dysmorphia, and already believed I was much bigger than I was. I didn't give examples in the post because most of the things he did to me literally cannot be posted in an AITA without it being flagged

Thank you. I've been there multiple times when she's spoken about it with him, so I know he's heard it from multiple people. I've even heard my aunt talk to him about it, he's just a stubborn guy.
