What makes you say that? Maybe he doesn't like fat chicks.

Sounds to me like the bride did that stupid thing where she buys a dress that's too small, on the assumption that she's going to make herself lose 10-20 pounds before the Big Day. (Yes, lots of women do this.) Except she is now freaking out about whether she can meet her goal or not, or perhaps whether she can stay this size for the next several months. Mom and Dad are trying to help her feel better, but specifically want to avoid looking like they care one way or the other about her weight--she's beautiful now, she'll be beautiful then, they just want her to be able to be happy and enjoy herself--so they are joking that it's only to protect their purchase of the wedding dress, nothing more.

Sounds like the bride is weight-obsessed, not the parents.

Here's my theory. Her pregnancy strip came up positive. She's afraid her size 3 figure will increase by the wedding day and she won't fit into the dress.

The mom says, she will look just fine and not to worry. She won't gain any weight by then and to prove it buys her a scale. She does this to protect their investment. You know how hungry expecting moms can be.

I suppose in a culture where pets are an anomaly, attitudes are different.

The wedding card is from Passive Aggressive notes. Here's what the submitter said:
Quote:
Katie in Oklahoma City was cleaning out a box of wedding memorabilia when she rediscovered this note from her mother, written just after she paid for Katie’s wedding dress.

Although I know a lot of brides who would have immediately ripped this card (and the enclosed check) to bits, Katie accepted the gift with impressively good humor. “I found it funny,” she says, “because it’s just the way my Mom is. She signed my Dad’s name too, but it’s from her…just her.”

“Oh, and just FYI,” Katie adds, “I think I weighed 115 pounds at the time this note was written.”
It had nothing to do with the bride buying a smaller size. Just a tacky mother
