Meghan lost her parents at 10, but her uncle Tim stepped in to raise her, promising to buy her wedding gown one day. Years later, after becoming a mother of three, Meghan’s boyfriend Tyler proposed, and she was thrilled to plan her big wedding.

Excited, she reminded Tim of his promise. However, when she revealed that the dress she wanted cost $7,500, Tim was taken aback and offered $1,500 instead. Meghan was upset, repeating that he had promised, but Tim stood firm, refusing to pay more.

A few days later, Tim overheard Meghan telling Tyler that she would use the $1,500 for his car repairs instead of the dress, revealing she’d already spent her trust fund on his car. Shocked and hurt, Tim confronted Meghan and told her he wouldn’t pay for the dress or the wedding.

Months passed without contact, and Tim learned that Meghan and Tyler got married at the courthouse without inviting him. Though hurt, Tim accepted that his relationship with Meghan was likely over and resolved to be more cautious with his trust and generosity, even toward family.
