From what I can tell, it seems as if the relationship was great before. Then the old lady made her get paranoid, hostile, now thinking that innocuous things were bad, worsening the idea of them she only had in her head. Over that week she got defensive, not as loving or playful, and then hostile. Only then did he do something, and it wasn’t even to her, and it was better than what she did. Relationship crasher 101.

Okay, now it’s just funny how A is doing way more damage and abuse than her fiancé ever would in the future. First the knife, then destroying her phone. Now, bashing her skull to knock her out, really? I already know the reason is that she wants to make sure she doesn’t leave (irony), but omg. It turns out that she was the real abuser all along. Not the intention of the story, of course(?), but what irony.

So the old lady implanted a seed of major doubt in the MC that she now is fearful of her fiancé because he mentioned that his parents wanted to invite their friend to the wedding. Is this supposed to be abusive and fearful from that info alone? What? What???

She too would be pissed at her fiancé for allowing someone with a knife to barge into the home… One of the worst ways to write the onlooker being bad.

It’s almost as if the old lady DID intentionally try to provoke him.

This is actually a pretty common phenomenon nowadays, that’s why I’m noticing it, especially when abuse is a word overused too much. What the old lady did to her WAS abuse in every way. Single women in real life intentionally try to crash weddings and relationships of coupled women by labelling innocuous things as toxic. This in turn makes the women get defensive, slightly paranoid, and it’s obvious that her partner can see that she’s not acting the same as she was before because the woman implanted preconceived prejudices in her mind. Since those thoughts continue to fester, they will over time get worse and she will react hostile towards him. If you want to learn how to wreck a relationship and make it lead to arguments and fights, this is how you do it. Good job old lady.
