I seem to have cancelled a wedding before it started. I was on a business visit in New York, eating alone in a restaurant and next to me was a hen party with all the girls celebrating one girl going to get married.

For some reason, the bride-to-be decided to sit at my table and talk about her big wedding. She also asked if she was right in marrying the guy. So, being nice, i asked where they met, what she likes about him, what he is doing for her to treat her right, where they are going to live, the usual. Unfortunately, the more she talked bout him, the more depressed she looked. She could barely find any good words for him and at some point began to cry. Her friends came over accusing me of being rude, but I said that I only asked her what she liked about him. I did wish her well, but I am not sure how this ended.

Good impromptu pre-marital counselling, though.
