You know that feeling when your entire world shatters in an instant? I thought I knew what true love felt like, what family meant. This morning, I woke up ready to marry the man of my dreams. The dress was hanging, the flowers were arriving, my heart was full of a joy I'd never felt before. But then I opened Facebook. And saw their faces. My fiancé. My sister. Exchanging vows. On our wedding day. My own wedding day. I'm staring at a photo of them, saying 'I do,' and I can't breathe. My sister. My fiancé. How could they do this? I'm sitting here, in my wedding dress, and my entire future just vanished into thin air. I need to know, how do you even begin to pick up the pieces when everything you thought was real turns out to be the cruelest lie imaginable?
Has anything this profoundly betrayed you? How did you survive?
