Heartbroken Dad Gets Revenge On Ungrateful Stepdaughter After She Disappointed Him At Her Wedding.

For a dad, his daughter's wedding day is just as important as his own wedding day if not more. It's the day that he finally has to admit that his little girl is all grown up. It's a big deal. While not everyone follows tradition, it's still followed by many including this dad whose heart was broken by his daughter on her wedding day.

It's customary for dads to give away their daughters when they get married. If dad isn't in the picture then other important males can substitute, be it her grandpa, brother, or stepdad.

Redditor godzilla_moon shared his feelings on the site after his stepdaughter deeply hurt him after he spent thousands of dollars paying for her wedding.

His post started by saying: "My stepdaughter will be getting married on August 3rd. The wedding planning has consumed most of her and her mother’s life (I say her mother because we aren’t married, though we’ve lived together for 10 years) for the past six months.

My stepdaughter graduated last December from university. I paid for her to go to college, though it was a state school it still ran $40K. She does not have a job and has been living with us for the duration of her college career and since her graduation. I also bought her a car to get back and forth from school when she finished high school."

He continued, saying: "From time to time her deadbeat father would pop into her life and she would fawn all over him. Although he has not contributed a cent to her education or paid any child support, though that is my girlfriend’s fault as c.s. was not part of the settlement, she still loves him and wants him in her life. He stays long enough to break her heart by skipping town and breaking some promise that he made her."

He makes it very clear from the start that he loves his stepdaughter very much and would do anything for her. Sadly, the feeling isn't mutual when it comes to her $50k wedding that he foots the bill for.

In return for paying for the lavish service, he made a couple simple requests that anyone who loves a parent wouldn't find too outrageous. His stepdaughter seemed to be onboard until pettiness and selfishness reared their heads.

His post continued: "The wedding venue holds 250 people max. I gave them a list of 20 people that I wanted invited, you know since I was paying for everything. They told me that was no problem and they’d take care of it. So I let these people know they’d be getting an invite and they should save the date.

Saturday, I saw one of my friends on this list at the golf course and asked if he was coming. He told me that he wasn’t invited. He told me that he got an announcement, but not an invitation. He had it in his back seat (along with probably six months of mail) and showed it to me. Sure enough, it was just an announcement, and my name was nowhere on it. It had her dad’s name and her mom’s name and not mine."

As you can see, it's pretty understandable that he would be upset and hurt by this. If not for the accidental golf course meeting he might have only found out about the shady dealings on the day of the wedding so it's a good thing that he did find out in advance.

He explained his reaction saying: "This led to a pretty big fight with my GF, as I found out that NONE of my list of twenty 'made the cut' for the final guest list because '250 people is very tight.' I was pissed, but not a hell of a lot I could do because the important people in my life had already been offended. My GF said 'if some people didn’t rsvp yes, I might be able to get a couple people in.' But that is an ultimate slap in the face in my opinion. So I was boiling on Saturday."

His girlfriend sounds like a real winner.

The disrespect of stepdad continues when he reveals: "Yesterday, we had a Sunday dinner with the future in-law’s family and us and a surprise guest, the 'Real Dad.' At this little dinner, my stepdaughter announced that her 'Real Dad' was going to be able to make it to her wedding and that now he’d be able to give her away. This was greeted with a chorus of 'Oh how great' and 'How wonderful's."

You would think she would at least let both men walk her down the aisle but nope.

By this point, his anger had reached the boiling point. He said: "I don’t think I have ever felt so angry and so disrespected. I was shaking. I took a few seconds to gather my composure, because I honestly wasn’t sure if I would cry or start throwing punches or both. Once I was sure I’d be able to speak I got up from my chair and said I’d like to make a toast. I can’t remember exactly what I said but the gist of it was this:"

Get ready for something savage af!

He continued saying: "'I’d like to make a toast.' The sound of spoons against glasses ring in my years. 'It has been my great pleasure to be a part of this family for the past ten years.' Awe, how sweet. 'At this point in my life, I feel I owe a debt of gratitude to bride and groom because they have opened my eyes to something very important.' Confident smiles exchanged. 'They have shown me that my position in this family is not what I once thought it was.'

And now a glimmer of confusion and shock begins to spread on the faces in the room. 'Though I once thought of myself as the patriarch or godfather of the family, commanding great respect and sought out for help in times of need, it seems instead that I hold the position of an ATM, good for a stream of money, but not much else. As I have been replaced as host, both on the invitations and in the ceremony, I am resigning my financial duties as host to my successor, Real Dad. So cheers to the happy couple and the path they have chosen.' I finished my drink. 'You all can let yourselves out.'"

This dude is an absolute savage. Not only did he drop the mic but he did so in a way that didn't result in him exploding from all of his pent-up rage.

He finished his post with this:

"TLDR: You want your 'REAL DAD' to be on the invitation, to give you away and to sit at the head table, fine, your 'REAL DAD' can pay for everything too."

"EDIT: June 9th 1:15 am. Girlfriend and Bride are now moved out. They are moving in with the groom. It was very hard not to be petty with some of the 'belongings' they took with them, but it’s done and I switched out the locks and now it’s time for a brew. I can’t believe how popular this story got, but I feel good to be given support by so many. If I find out what happens with the wedding, I will let you know, but I can’t guarantee that I will put in the effort to find out.

From what [I’’ve] heard they are trying to "scale things back" and get his parents to help out. GF burned bridges when I found out she tried to write herself a check on our joint account the day after the unpleasantness. By then I had already moved money, so I guess I’m a bigger ass than her, but I could feel it coming. That’s all. Thanks."

Personally, I say good job godzilla_moon. You the real MVP. It's a shame that people want to take advantage of your kindness and love but it happens every day. So what do you think? Was he justified?
