My Husband’s Female Best Friend Insisted on Hosting My Baby Shower – I Gave Her a Reality Check
When I announced my pregnancy, my husband Scott’s best friend, Avery, a nutritionist, bombarded us with unsolicited advice, critiquing my diet and baby preparations. Her insistence on hosting my baby shower, despite my mom and sister planning it, was the final straw. I politely declined, but Avery arrived with decorations and a condescending plan, ignoring my wishes.
I devised a plan. While Avery decorated our house, I held the real shower at a cozy café with loved ones. I sent a delivery to Avery with a cupcake and a photo of our joyful event, the note reading, “We know you’re enjoying your dietary options, just wanted to share.” Through our security app, I watched her furious reaction.
Avery confronted us, admitting she loved Scott and hoped her meddling would drive us apart. Scott firmly told her his heart belonged to me, asking her to respect our boundaries or leave our lives. Devastated, Avery left. Months later, I gave birth to a healthy baby, and Scott and I grew closer, setting firm boundaries. Avery was no longer part of our lives, and we faced our future united, stronger than ever, cherishing our family and the love that carried us through.
