No joke- this just happened in PA. The entire wedding party got drunk a couple days before the wedding. The bride asked the groom to escort her friend back to her room because she couldn't function anymore. The groom sexually assaulted the bridesmaid, who was blackout drunk at the time, and was caught in the act by the bride. The bride and the groom literally had a physical altercation after this, and yet they still got married.
How exactly does that work? What could this bride possibly have been thinking that would make her decide to still marry that guy?

I can only guess at the answer to that, of course. Women have somehow excused many things a man they're in lust and supposedly "love" with has done or said, no doubt. I even have, on occasion. Something anything like THAT though, it just would not be possible.
What a sick and sordid story. *Sigh.....
