If you still maintain a good relationship with your ex (chatting comfortably as friends), you can invite your ex to the wedding. After all, they were part of your past and contributed to who you are today. Even if you feel comfortable having your ex present on your joyful day, you can send them an invitation directly. However, inviting an ex to a wedding is like playing a game of chance; sometimes, the success of your wedding can depend on the magnanimity and forgiveness of your ex.
Social media has witnessed numerous outrageous acts caused by “exes,” resulting in young couples unable to enjoy their special day. In a recent post by a Facebook user named H.C., they shared a story accusing their brother’s ex of attending the wedding but giving an insincere cash gift. After opening the envelope, H.C. and the newlyweds discovered that the ex gave a total of 1 million, but it was 1 million… ghost money.
It is clear that this girl is still harboring some bitterness about her past relationship, which is why she sought to sabotage the groom. Evidence of this is that the groom’s ex even shared the post with the comment: “Going to an ex’s wedding is supposed to be like this; who told you to invite me?”
Netizens were, of course, outraged by this behavior. They believe that if this girl thinks a wedding is a place to reconnect with a past lover and build a friendship, she should attend. But don’t create drama at a wedding and make everyone suffer through negative emotions. Many netizens advised the groom: “Maybe she (the one giving ghost money) had to deal with negative emotions after the breakup, so let your special day happen peacefully and ignore the ex.”
– “Once the wedding takes place, enjoy your happy day and don’t dwell on the ex anymore.”
– “Why invite her after breaking up? Just to get a little money, right, groom?”
However, it’s too late now, and the groom just has to come to terms with his poor decision.
As for the girl who gifted ghost money at her ex’s wedding, under the pressure from the online community, she deleted her post and has not mentioned it again.
