Why Woman Says She Feels Like She Contributed To Friend’s Troubled Marriage

A woman says she warned her friend not to get married, and now the marriage is on the rocks. Why does she say she feels partially responsible?

“When Brandi told me that she was going to marry Max just after a few months of dating, I told her she was crazy because she barely knew him,” says Amy, of her good friend. “Max doesn’t think before he speaks. I don’t like the way he carried himself when he introduced himself to me. He was arrogant. He would put me down.”

“Six months into their marriage, Brandi informed me that she thought Max was cheating on her. It broke my heart that Max would throw away something so amazing,” Amy says. “I do feel like I contributed to this mess we’re in right now by officiating the wedding.”

Amy says she thinks the couple should take a break to figure out if they can have a future together. “My biggest fear is that Brandi takes Max back and they normalize the cheating and the lying, and it will continue for years,” she says.
