I absolutely hate my dress, I tried everything to like it but I just can't, I was so excited to try on a bunch of dresses but my sister was being rude and saying I should just "pick a dress" so she could leave and go to college…I didn't even ask her to come shopping with me.

I hate that I wasn't given the time to look or try on dresses I liked, I absolutely hate the color of the dress I got and although my sister says "the dress was made for you I'll disown you if you don't buy it!!" I ABSOLUTELY DESPISED IT…

My mom agreed and they both coerced me into buying it saying the cut is similar to what I wanted- which is true in a way. BUT I DON'T LIKE IT AT ALL, I explained to my mom I wanted a dress with multiple shades of blue and I wanted them to be in darker colors but this dress only had a single shade (royal blue) and it was SO BRIGHT I hated it the moment I saw it. I tried telling my mom I didn't want it but she didn't listen and bought it because my sister was speaking over me.

I hate when my sister visits because I always comply to her demands, because I have no personality when she's with me I HATE IT. But she was being so cynical and demanding.

The day after I just broke down in my mom's arms and she says she thinks the dress is beautiful and she said it'll look better if I styled it, so I tried I really did but no matter how much I tried layering it to add gradients with dupatta's I still hated it- and it pissed me off when my mom called my sister and she said "why are you doing all that, it looks fine" IT'S MY DRESS, I want it to look like how I WANT.

Both my mom and sister are gaslighting me so much "oh my god it's so pretty" IT'S NOT I HATE IT…the color is overstimulating and it makes me made. The details are literally undetectable and I HATE IT.

I only went to the store because my mom wanted me to try on dresses, but I originally just wanted to buy this pretty dress I found online. I hate how no one is understanding what I want, why buy an expensive dress I don't even like???

Prom is literally in 2 weeks and I hate everything about my outfit.

I have another dress that's pink and another that's gold I got for other occasions (they're actually prom dresses) but I don't want to wear them because I wanted to match with my girlfriend with the blue.

My girlfriend's dress is so much prettier and I wish I was able to order one in that specific shade of blue, I feel like I'll stand out next to her and I hate that- I really really wanted us to match and it's just pissing me off how no one actually understands and just complains that I'm complaining too much.

I literally told them I didn't want it, my friends also originally told me the dress looked bad b4 I told them I already bought it. I HATE IT SO MUCH

I especially HATE how my sister has so much control over me even though she literally lives in a dorm away from home.

Honestly I don't hate the dress I just hate the circumstances on how I got it. I still don't want to wear it to prom…
