Dear Fonseca,
I am the most unhappy newlywed. My husband embarrassed me during our vows. We wrote custom ones. He pulled out a piece of paper and started reading his. Everyone started laughing. I had no idea why until I saw that he had written HELP ME on the back of his paper. He completely embarrassed me and ruined the moment. It looks even worse on our wedding video. We've been back from our honeymoon for a week and I am no longer in love with him. I know it sounds silly, but he ruined the moment and gut punched me. Am I being overly sensitive? My best friend says if I'm not happy I should ask for an annulment. Will I get over these feelings? What would you do if you were me?
