I appreciate that the engagement ended immediately. There wasn't the trickery of dragging it out to the wedding in the next year to end it at the alter, or the "meeting at a cafe in a nearby town" trope.
IF this is a true story then good for you. After my niece married her husband we stopped talking after I asked her why her husband commented about my (deceased) Mom, her grandmother, was such a huge woman. She called me a liar and said he never said that. I knew for a fact what he said. My niece has a body image fixation / problem and there is no one else in the family who would have said anything about my Mom’s size, everyone loved her the way she was. My niece has been frequently trying to get her dad (my brother) to lose weight along with other people who are close to her. It’s definitely her problem just like the family you dodged the bullet from.

Wow, a strong OP for once.
