Those owl eyes alone would scare me...

I'm gonna have nightmares tonight

I don't know...I think you're right...the guy's a saint. Either that or he's so horribly malformed or has the world's tiniest equipment that no one else will take him.

But I highly doubt that's the case.

She's over 30. If she doesn't want to get married in front of a huge crowd, and this whole thing was planned by parents, etc., I can see where she'd be totally terrified or whatever. That's when you run to the courthouse and get it done there or just freakin elope, you know? She's an adult, and she did the totally wrong thing. She needed to say, either to her parents or her fiancee, "You know, this big wedding thing just isn't for me...I'm sorry if that hurts, but...I just can't deal with it that way." That's what big girls do.

Beyond that...I hope that there are some charges pressed against her, or she should at least have to pay restitution to all the law enforcement agencies she pulled a fast one on.

It's like Runaway Bride meets Scott Peterson or something. What a dingaling!

cold feet are cold feet... aren't we all entitled to a mistake or two?

Sure. But then again, when making a decision that will affect the rest of your life, would you trust her?

I am not saying lock her up. I am saying I would put the wedding on hold for a year or 2 (at least) and make sure she did not get cold feet again.

Exactly! Even when she ran away, she could have called the poor dope and told him so instead of making up the story of a kidnapping.

I dunno, I tend to think this story kind of fed itself. There's no law against running like hell from a wedding, and if her town spent a ton of cash it was because they over-reacted.

I believe in a fast response, don't get me wrong, but you don't start setting up coffee stations and looking for bodies that soon. Hell, it doesn't seem to matter why, the town is still mulling over making her responsible for the cost, even though her "kidnapping" excuse came AFTER the expense. Evidently she'd be responsible if she had just admitted to leaving on a whim, the expense would be there either way.

Who knows what any of us would do if we found out we were the biggest story on Fox News, and that we might be liable for a manhunt. It might feel just as insane to say "oops, wandered off for a bit.", especially if you know that a whole town is probably gonna want your head for making doofs out of them. Even though they made doofs of themselves.
