My friend asked me to get my mole removed before her wedding because she thinks I’ll ruin the photos with it
A BRIDESMAID has shocked people after revealing her soon-to-be-wed friend asked her to get a mole surgically removed from her face if she wants to take part in the big day.
The savage bride has even told her friend that she will be stripped of her bridesmaid title if she doesn’t have a mole-free right cheek by the time the wedding comes around.
The 24-year-old bridesmaid, who chose to remain anonymous, has shared her heartache following the shallow demand from the bride, who was named as Zoe.
Zoe wants everything to “look good” for her nuptials and took her bridesmaid out for coffee to discuss getting the mole removed.
The bridezilla made it clear that her friend would be axed from playing a part in the nuptials if she doesn’t do it, claiming the mole will be a “distraction” and ruin the wedding photos.
“Zoe said that she would pay for the surgery out of pocket, as she could afford it, and all I would have to do was go in and get it removed,” the bridesmaid penned on Reddit.
“I told her that I needed time to think about it. She said she understood, but let me know that it would be mandatory for me to have the procedure in order to be a bridesmaid.”
The bridesmaid has recently started embracing her mole and covering it less and less with make-up.
But she is now wondering if she will be happier without the mole.
Other Reddit users reassured her that she should stay true to herself.
Many were shocked that Zoe would make such a shallow request.
“I don’t think your ‘friend’ is the friend you think she is,” one responded.
“Someone who loves you for who you are would NEVER ask you to permanently alter your body to conform to their personal standards of beauty.
“And, even worse, to alter your body for an event that will be happening for just a few hours.
“If you choose to remove the mole, do it because you want to. Otherwise, may I suggest the thing that you really need to be excised from your life is the bride.”
Other commenters agreed that Zoe sounds like a terrible friend with an “bananas level of entitlement”.
“Any ‘friend’ who tells you ‘you can’t be in my wedding unless you get cosmetic surgery’ isn’t actually a good friend,” a second added
“That’s a completely bananas level of entitlement. A good wedding photographer is going to touch up the photos anyway, and could just remove it that way.
“But also, if your friend was actually your friend, she wouldn’t even bring it up. Everyone has skin marks.
“They’re not a ‘distraction’ unless you’re a petty, shallow person.
“I know exactly what I’d tell any friend of mine who told me I had to get cosmetic surgery for their wedding, and I absolutely wouldn’t be at that wedding.”
