So many things can go wrong when planning a wedding, it seems. And the worst thing is when a force majeure hits you, like a worldwide pandemic. You have to reschedule everything, and a lot of things can change in the two years it takes the world to recover.
People’s bodies change often, so it’s no surprise that a bridesmaid may no longer fit into her dress. And this is exactly what happened to u/Ill-Trick4313. Her bridesmaid asked for a new dress since the old one became too small. But drama ensued after the Redditor refused, so she came to r/AITA to ask people whether she was being unreasonable.
Many people reported gaining weight during the pandemic, and so did this one bridesmaid

But when her friend, the bride, refused to buy her a new dress, she got called out for fat shaming and being “an awful friend”

Some commenters believed the bride wasn’t the bad guy
Others called her out for being insensitive
