Weddings are happy occasions created to celebrate the union of two individuals in the sacred tie of matrimony. Usually, the couple extends invitations to the most significant and intimate people in their lives to join them on this momentous day. However, if your sister attempted to take center stage during the day, how would you react? The story below is an account of a frustrated husband. The original poster (OP) had lately tied the knot in a private, dreamy wedding with the love of his life.…

First and foremost, always put your family first. But what would you do if, only a few months before your wedding, your sister disclosed a dark, secret about your fiancé? Would you support your sister and express gratitude for her candor, or would you support your fiancé in opposition to your sister's testimony? An unhappy fiancé is the subject of the story that follows. After three years of dating, the original poster (OP) recently proposed. The idea of being married to the love of his life fi…

Was it really favoritism, or is it justified given the context?

One of the most memorable days in a person's life is their wedding. It's the day you meet the person you believe to be your true love or soulmate. As such, there are a number of factors to take into account when planning for the big day. The wedding dress you will don as you walk down the aisle to finally meet your true love, for example. The story below is an account of a frustrated sister. The original poster (OP) just tied the knot with the love of her life in a private ceremony attended by…

Welcome back internet enthusiasts. Sibling dynamics could be very difficult. You’re not their parent, but it can be difficult to see a sibling drowning under life’s pressures, but too prideful and defensive to let you help them. Not to mention seeing that they aren’t living up to their role as a parent. Not only are they harming themselves and their own life, they’re endangering their children’s mental health, physical health, and futures at the same time. Take this Reddit piece for example, th…

Welcome back internet queens and kings. The thing about lying, is that once you lie once about something so big, it opens a door of paranoia for the person you lied to. They have no reason to believe that the liar has changed, or that there aren’t more things they’ve lied about. If one’s willing to lie about cheating on their partner, why wouldn’t they have lied about many other things? It’s a slippery slope, and is basically a death sentence in a relationship. Without trust, there can never be…

Having a good relationship with your partner's family is something no one should take for granted. For some reason, it is so rare to feel at home with your loved one's family, and if someone does feel comfortable, they should hold on to that as strongly as they can. It seems like the family in this Reddit story is on great terms with each other, which is why it is surprising that OP (original poster) is looking to cause drama. OP is happily married to his wife, who, as it seems, is close to her…

I'd be cooked if I were judged by my high school decisions tbh.

One of the most crucial characteristics for a family to possess is loyalty. They should always stand by you, through good times and bad. So, what should you do in the event that your siblings are at odds? In order to preserve peace and unity in the family, should you take a stand or do you remain impartial? The story below is an account of a frustrated brother. While the original poster (OP) and his brother had always been close, OP and his sister had never gotten along. As a result, when it ca…

The timing never lined up for this woman's parents to meet her future husband's parents—so naturally, have them meet on Thanksgiving.

Welcome back internet enthusiasts. Weddings have become such a tornado of emotions, family drama, and even family ties asundering. It seems to stand as the ultimate symbol of respect and love (which is a little delusional if you ask me). People really use it as a statement to express themselves, or even use it for petty revenge. As any woman getting married, it’s your special day, and not only are you celebrating the love between you and your partner, it’s your day to be the center of attention…

Family is one of the most important social networks in a person's life. From the moment of your birth, you are surrounded by an abundance of love and support. How would you respond, then, if the ones you trusted the most—your family—betrayed you? Would you stick to your beliefs and exclude them from your life, or could you forgive them under the pretense of family? The story below is an account of a heartbroken girlfriend. The original poster (OP) and her partner ended their three-year relation…

Welcome back internet queens and kings. In life, we can choose our friends and partners, but we can’t choose our family. More than that, we can’t choose how our children will turn out, we can only hope to raise them in a way that makes them a good person in the world. Which brings us to the Reddit piece. In this particular Reddit thread, there’s a childless sister, and her older sister with a 4 year old son. The son has clear emotional and behavioral issues, and his mother is either complacent…

Is this a valid excuse to miss your sibling's wedding?

Maybe this bride actually dodged a bullet before it was too late.
