Who doesn't enjoy some fucked up wedding stories...but I noticed something stood out while reading a bunch of them this afternoon. Predictably....most of the stories involved women losing their shit and having a meltdown. However....alcohol was rarely a factor.

The Alpha Widow concept jumped out at me in a way that I've never seen before. Tons of stories involved either brides losing it over a past guy or a past girlfriend showing up over a decade later and going after the groom. It was very clear that, based on simple statistics, for every woman who eventually went critical from this effect there are a lot more who were pretty fucked up over it but manage to keep their shit together. Or do they?

It got me thinking.....how much of the emotional, crazy bullshit that women throw around weddings is really due to a fundamental emotional breakdown over her lost Alpha? How many times do we chalk up a Bridezilla to "stress" or "narcissism" when the real problem is that her wedding to a beta bux has brought her the closest she's ever come to dealing with her cognitive dissonance? The hamster is panting and struggling to keep up with the swirling emotions and that loss of rationalization starts sending stress fractures into her tense little bride-to-be mind.

In other words...how many times when a woman flips out over flowers or her dress is it really because the biggest thing on her mind is NOT the dress or flowers but really Chad's throbbing dick from 8 years ago that she's signing up to never get shoved full of again? The forced sexual passion used to rope in soon-to-be hubby is already getting old and she's not even walked down the aisle yet. I just want to fuck chad...I'm gonna be stuck with Evan...I don't like fucking Evan that much....he's so boring...Chad...Evan...CHAD oooh that time he slapped me across the face.....Evan won't even pick a restaurant...

"I'm not sure if I like that dress on you.."

"OMG YOU GUYS I CAN'T EVEN DEAL WITH THIS ANYMORE..." <tears>

"Its ok, you're going to look great!"

<chad.....evan....chad....evan> sobbing

"We can try the other dress if you want?"

<chad....evan....chad.....evan.....chad...chad...maybe I'll just run away....>

And we won't even get started on all the drama around the women watching someone else marry the Alpha that widowed them. Even if their sordid, steamy, animal romps were only ever in her mind. Sister drama anyone? Mother in Law drama? How far does the hamster burrow really go?

Wedding drama suddenly makes even MORE sense. Obviously narcissism, princess mindset, and the whole rest of it factor in, but the fact that most women approach their wedding as an Alpha Widow and her lack of ability to rationalize away the cognitive dissonance is what is really laying the sanity-shattering groundwork for so many wedding freakouts, tantrums, and general batshit craziness.
