When Megan was 10 and grieving the loss of her parents, Uncle Tim promised he’d one day buy her wedding dress. Nearly two decades later, she reminded him of that promise—with a $7,500 gown in mind. Tim, who had helped raise Megan, offered $1,500 instead, hoping to find a beautiful but affordable dress together. Megan was disappointed, but the real shock came days later when Tim overheard her secretly telling her fiancé, Tyler, they planned to sell the dress and use the money for their wedding and car repairs. She even admitted to spending her parents’ trust fund on Tyler’s car. Devastated by the betrayal, Tim confronted Megan and withdrew his financial support. She and Tyler later married quietly at a courthouse, without him. Though Tim still cares for Megan, the trust between them is broken. What began as a loving promise ended with heartbreak and a fractured bond that may never heal.
