A pet jeopardize a weeding in India!
A woman called off her marriage as her fiance’s mother refused to allow her to bring her pet dog to their home, calling an “end” in the seven-year relationship, reports Gulf News.
Did the woman love the dog more than the man? No, it merely reflected the state of their relationship.
Priyanka shared her story in social media platform X. She said: “When they were planning for the wedding, the boyfriend’s attitude changed: he stopped fighting for her and their relationship when disagreements arose. The couple had no disagreements, but his mother’s intervention pained her.”
Both families had agreed to the marriage, but the boy’s mother rejected Priyanka’s request to bring the dog with her after the wedding. Explaining the request, Priyanka said her ailing mother could not care for the dog, so she planned to take the pet to her boyfriend’s house after marriage.
The objection of her boyfriend’s mother stemmed from the fact that they already had a dog and hence could not accommodate another pet.
Priyanka said the dog is like her child, and she can’t leave him behind. But her boyfriend’s mother refused to relent. Following the emotional turmoil and her boyfriend’s lack of support, Priyanka decided to end the relationship.
The news sparked a range of reactions on social media, and Priyanka had to explain her decision to some users. While some people backed Priyanka, saying that they understand the bond between pet parents and animals, others criticised her decision as immature and dramatic. One even said the story was untrue, and accused her of cooking up the story.
One commenter slammed the boyfriend for prioritizing his family’s convenience over Priyanka’s attachment to her dog. Another social media user said relationships require sacrifices and adjustments from both sides.
One said” “She’s literally already moving to his place — leaving her mom and life behind. The guy gets to stay at his place with his parents and his dog, and the girl can’t? Also people can have two priorities at the same time and both can still mean the world to them.”
