The woman was shocked when her husband said he wouldn’t go to her father’s funeral because she wanted to wear black heels with her dress because he believed she’d be too tall.
Many individuals enjoy wearing high heels for a variety of reasons, including the way they look with particular clothing, how they can make your legs look longer, and how much joy they can bring the user if they aren’t too painful. However, wearing heels occasionally may make you appear to be taller than your partner; this is generally not a problem.
She said on Reddit’s “Am I the a**hole” forum that his family had told her to make a concession if she truly wanted him there, but she didn’t agree.
She wrote: “My dad passed away 2 weeks ago. Before the funeral, My husband who has always had issues with height (he’s short) asked if I was going to wear high heels. I said yes because those high heels are the only pair of shoes that I have in a black colour to fit my outfit.
“He tried to get me to wear other shoes but I refused and gave him the explanation above. He ranted about how worried he was about people seeing him with me and me looking taller (basically the same old rant). I used to suck it up before but this time I said no. He said he wouldn’t attend the funeral then.
“I was shocked and I called him insane to miss the funeral over such a reason but he seemed upset and said that I was the insane one for refusing to compromise to make it work.
“*We had a huge fight and he ended up not going. We’re not talking to each other as of now and his family thinks I was stubborn and should’ve compromised if I really wanted him there.”
“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
