74. “Let ME Watch”
My best friend is a dancer. She was hired to do a joint bachelor and bachelorette party, set up by the bride. It became clear quickly she had set it up like this so she could watch her groom to make sure he didn’t have too much fun.
The whole time, she was sitting on his lap, making him watch their mutual friends getting lapdances. My friend was instructed that if she needed to speak to the groom, address the bride instead. She showed up to the venue to see the bride yelling at their friends to pose for pictures with the dancers, or they’re going to “ruin everything.”
She was the most controlling bride my friend had ever seen. Her man couldn’t even have a drink without asking. She kept ordering him to smile. The best man joked with my friend that she was so good, that they’d invite her to the divorce party to perform because there was no way a man could live like this for long.
