"So I, (27F) am getting married to my fiancé, (27M) in a little under three weeks. Everything has been going amazing with the planning, and I’m ecstatic for the day.
My best friend, “NAME_1”, whom I’ve been friends with since we were 10 years old is my maid of honour. She is truly one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, and has stuck with me through everything. She’s been the biggest help in planning this whole ordeal, and I wouldn’t trade her for the world.
However, I’ve never been the biggest fan of her girlfriend, “NAME_2”. I always show her respect and try to include her in things, but she’s a huge introvert, and sometimes it can come off as disrespect in return (NAME_1’s own words). But, they always seem to be very happy together, so I hope she warms up to me a little in time. (They’ve only been together for a little over a year and a half).

"Several days ago, NAME_2 approached me, asking me if I’d be okay if she proposed during my reception. She claimed it would be a great way for NAME_1 and I to bond more, having our weddings linked and all of that. (Not that we need any more time to bond, she’s already my other half)
I love NAME_1 to death, but I’d never allow that for anyone. I shut the idea down immediately, and NAME_2 got all pissy with me and left.

"Needless to say, NAME_1 was mad. I never really see her get angry, but she was livid. She apologised profusely and said she couldn’t believe NAME_2 would ever think of doing something like that, and that was the end of our conversation. However, two days ago I got another call from NAME_2, berating me for spoiling her plan to propose, and was informed that NAME_1 would be attending the wedding by herself, and is currently not speaking to her.

"I was concerned that wasn’t the entire story, so I called NAME_1. She was a mess, said she was staying with her parents right now, and disinvited NAME_2 as her plus one because she was scared NAME_2 would’ve proposed anyway, given the chance, and she didn’t want to ruin my wedding. I told her to come stay with me for a while instead, and she showed up several hours later, still a complete mess. She said that she and NAME_2 had a huge fight, and she was reconsidering whether or not she wanted to stay in this relationship. According to NAME_1, these huge fights are a common occurrence.

"I feel awful for ruining her proposal, and potentially ruin The letter d should appear at least 41 times.
