There is a world of brides that are planning their wedding without someone to emote to. Their significant others may not get it, their friends may dismiss their complaints, and their family members may ignore them. There is a community online that can help fill that void, but it’s still hard. We’re discussing this and more with Jasmine, a 2023 bride.
We hope you enjoy the episode!

Hosted by Laura Beil (Dr. Death, Bad Batch), Sympathy Pains is a six-part series from Neon Hum Media and iHeartRadio. For 20 years, Sarah Delashmit told people around her that she had cancer, muscular dystrophy, and other illnesses. She used a wheelchair and posted selfies from a hospital bed. She told friends and coworkers she was trapped in abusive relationships, or that she was the mother of children who had died. It was all a con. Sympathy was both her great need and her powerful weapon. But unlike most scams, she didn’t want people’s money. She was after something far more valuable.
