      Yeah, having grown up in a very toxic family myself, the absence of the mother in this has been incredibly suspicious.
      Further context would be needed as I am very tempted to say it is the mothers fault first. Losing a parent to death is traumatizing enough without having to deal with a new family on top....
      We have no idea what role the mom played in helping her first daughter through these life transitions. The absence of her throughout the story just to show up at the end in support of the first daughter screams red flags.
      I am trying really hard not to project.... what I do know is a narcissistic personality disorder (among others) can occur as a response to trauma... and the oldest is definitely showing signs....
      There is a good chance OP is suffering a narcissistic sister, negligent mom, and enabling father...... but even if not, she is definitely a victim and not the AH in this. :(

      It’s possible that some of the treatment was not known by the parents, but the fact that the sister openly disrespected the father leads me to think they knew how she treated her sister. To me it sounds like the mom felt guilty about her first daughter losing her dad, so she let her get away with horrible behavior because she saw her as a victim. It’s important to hold kids accountable for their behavior, even when they have gone through trauma. It can never be an excuse to be a terrible person.

      ​@@cosmicnightwalk7341 nope. Not how that works. Before queen Victoria wore a white wedding dress, common folk like us wore whatever our nicest dress was, and kept wearing said dress for years after. There is NO reason wearing a prom dress as your wedding dress would mean you cannot wear it anywhere else.
      It's not a traditional wedding dress, if her friend hadn't flipped, NO ONE would have known op wore that dress to her own wedding. And if you make a big deal about your friend wearing her nicest dress to your wedding (KNOWING it's one of the only formal dresses she owns) it's on YOU to tell her You're not comfortable with that. NO ONE can read your mind.

      The only time I wore a new dress to a wedding was when I was a guest at a spring wedding. The bride knew I only had dark dresses. She invited me out on a shopping trip (she needed shoes, tights, earrings) and wanted to get to know me better. We go to a shop, and I spotted this really cute light blue dress. I did try it on. Ngl, it looked good! I was very shocked when this bride said, “We’re getting you that blue dress. You should have something that looks amazing on you.”

    Story 1: The mother shares some responsibility for not getting the older sister grief counseling. She lost her father which was the only nuclear family in her life. Then all the rules and dynamic changed and it's easy to see where she could have resentment and misplaced it to her baby sister. She wasn't even 10 yo when this happened. She was going through a lot in her life and it presents as if she had to navigate that on her own without any success. Who set this kid up to fail so she grew up so cold and mean to her younger siblings? Mind this doesn't excuse her actions but she clearly needed help and I wasn't seeing where she got any. yikes all around

      Finally seeing someone who say this, I was thinking Im mad feeling the sister's behaviour (while being horrible) is not out of nothwere, imagine being a kid, lost your dad ,suddenly have a new family you "need" to love, and you only remaining parent's attention get diverted because new babay was born. Even full siblings can hate each other because they got treated unequally or the older sibling got ingored because younger sibling is there, why wouldn't a half sibling feel the same or even stronger? The op is not the ahole, I would balme the parents at this point, the sister needs help not hate

    • @that-gay-dork3749
      @that-gay-dork3749 Před 3 měsíci

      Exactly. Like, let’s look at this through a logical lens. Eldest was likely never given therapy or guided through her grief. Mom suddenly finds a new man, the man and mom do not work to gently integrate him into eldest’s life and instead leave the feeling of “This man is replacing my dad” to fester. Youngest says that mom get pregnant extremely quick, and thus it can be concluded that Eldest was likely never prepared for that reality, and thus, 2 new feelings began to fester too: “This kid will always have both their mom and their dad, while I’ll never see mine again and I can’t hate mom for replacing me and dad so I’ll hate this kid instead”, and of course “Mom’s the only parent I’ve got left but now she’s going to put all her focus on a new kid instead of me.” Those feelings were never addressed, no counseling was given so those all merged with the untreated grief and formed a ball of pure unadulterated hatred at her core. Mom never addresses any of Eldest’s feelings, just keeps playing pretend with her new family, and thus Eldest and Youngest’s relationship is what it is today. Not a shock she hates her half sibling and stepdad considering all she must’ve felt, and no one ever batted an eye.

    “Ciara” ruined her own wedding by being a massive bridezilla. No one else would have known that the blue sequined dress had been worn as a wedding dress. The rule isn’t “Don’t wear a dress worn in a wedding to someone else’s wedding “ the rule is “don’t wear white” because then you’ll look like you may be the bride. The whole situation is unnecessary and stupid.

      But ya, I'm with you, even if I hated the dress I would put on a smile cause it's just a dress and not a big deal.
      If someone has issues about there body.... I'm sorry but that is your problem and shouldn't make others bend to your issues you can't be bothered to work on. It's not the world's problem ya know. I think too many think the world owes them things that just aren't owed or deserved.
      If that makes me a ah, then oh well, guess I am lol.

    In the 1st story, the older sister was allowed to treat OP horribly for years.

I blame the mom for not getting her child the help she needed and allowing her to treat OP and OP's father horribly.

Maybe if OP would have been a boy it would have been different, as maybe the mom did fun stuff with OP while ignoring the sister and the sister saw how her mom treated OP better than her... if that makes sense.

    The whole issue of the last story, was not about weight or dresses. It's that the bride did not chose that bridesmaid. The bride was TOLD who one of her bridesmaids would be.. She found a very clever way to "solve" that problem, without directly telling the chick she's unwanted, in a way that doesn't make herself look bad. I think Mia got what she deserved for giving herself that title without being invited and putting the bride in that situation. She only gets 1 wedding day to look back on forever, why can't she have it the way she wants? Why be a people pleaser on your one big day? MIL and Mia ATAHs

    Rule #1 about bridesmaids that everyone needs to accept: The bridesmaids are picked by the bride and no one else. Guilting someone into making anyone a bridesmaid is underhanded and extremely disrespectful to the bride and those the bride has already chosen to be bridesmaids. Mia had no right to pressure MIL and MIL had no right to just announce that Mia was going to be a bridesmaid without clearing it with the bride. I had several people I wish I could've had in my bridal party but we didn't have the funds or space to provide for them, so I had to choose only a few and it was hard. Someone else declaring that so-and-so is going to be a bridesmaid is just downright rude.

Don't worry, I'll be 100% honest about our relationship with anyone who asks..." then, deny saying it to the mother. Have sister spend her entire wedding worried about what OP is saying to people, making a point to speak to the groom's family - "yeah, I was really surprised I got invited. She once told me that our mother should have aborted me, so I can't believe she wanted me here."

    The last straw was a lawsuit; that’s all I will say. Three years ago, my boyfriend had his Facebook posts set to public for a while and had tagged me in a photo. My sister - whom I’m not in any way connected to on social media - found the photo and commented that it made her “happy”. A few months ago I caught her creeping on my Instagram account.
    Without some kind of “Hey, sorry I was such a bitch to you in the past; let’s start over” kind of message, I have no interest in having any sort of relationship. Blood is NOT thicker than water.

Still, dresses like that get pulled out for particular occasions...not worn EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. something remotely fancy comes up.
      But agree, definitely shouldn't have caused all that fuss though since it's clear OP doesn't have weird intentions around it and it's just a dress she likes to rewear anytime the word 'fancy' flutters around an event. NTA, but still a little consideration should've been had to ask the Bride since it was used as a wedding dress and could possibly toe the line of appropriate. Tbh, I would be irked myself if someone had, say, an nontraditional black wedding dress and rewore it on my wedding day. It's not just about the color and getting mistaken for the bride, but it feels a little like a symbolic "F you" to the bride to be wearing something that was used as a wedding dress and not even being asked if it was appropriate. If you asked, Yeah I'd allow the black dress, but if you didn't - I would side eye you all night and wonder if you were trying to make some weird statement against me.

    It’s not at all uncommon to have a family member you want to include in the wedding in an official capacity but one that doesn’t “fit” as a bridesmaid or usher.
    A friend solved this problem (she and hubby had lots of siblings and friends) by having official “greeters” at the wedding and reception.
    It was lovely. They got to wear whatever they wanted but each got a matching corsage or boutonnière AND a name tag that identified them as greeters.
    The name tags had their name and, in smaller print, their title (friend of groom, sister in law of bride, etc.).
    I thought it was a great way to make them all feel included yet keep the cost of the wedding party down.
    They were also very helpful during the event by helping the older folks with seating, handing out wedding trinkets, getting folks out on the dance floor, supervising a few kiddos, and even acting as cocktail waiters and waitresses for the older folks as it was open bar.

Because it isn't my day. So long as the bride is happy, I couldn't care less what I look like (as long as it covers me and I won't flash everyone, obviously...). As a bridesmaid, the clue is in the name - it's your job to look after the bride. Don't like it? Don't be a bridesmaid. Simple. Because it's not about you, it's about the couple getting married getting the day they want.

    I already wouldn't feel comfortable being a bridesmaid just because someone else pressured the bride into making me a bridesmaid and would likely refuse to be one even if I really wanted it, because it matters more what the bride wants. Therefore, I cannot imagine not only being a bridesmaid against the bride's wishes but also making it difficult for her by making it all about what dresses look good on me?

    I was really glad to see the comment about the bridesmaid that altered the dress. My best friend got married and chose a revealing dress. I am very busty and did not want to upstage the bride. I approached her and her mom, privately, with my suggestion about adding some lace to make the bust line less revealing, and they were both on board, especially when they saw the dress on me. I felt comfortable, the bride got what she wanted, everyone was happy.

My sister and I are built very differently (she's tall and slim, I'm short and curvy) so when we were our stepmum's bridesmaids we all went into the dress shops convinced that we'd be going the "same colour, different styles" route. And then we found the perfect dress: form-fitting, knee-length, lace and beading. It just sat so nicely on each of us - except I was spilling out a bit. All I did was stitch some of the wide ribbon from the cake (decorating the cake was my job) into the neckline and it kept the girls from escaping. You'd never be able to tell the difference

I was her MoH for HER, not the dress.

Its tough because now when I need her, her priority is my brother. But i would never treat him like any of it is his fault.

      That is a very good point, you might very well be right in that. The thing about battling discrimination is that for some time, it actually turns around and the other side might be discriminated because they are afraid of being labelled as racist, xenophobic, sexist, homophobic etc. We end up walking on egg-shells around ppl from various minorities and we are sometimes more accommodating to them than we would be to anyone else. Because unfortunately there are some people, thankfully not many, but still there are, who know this and use it as a weapon to get special treatment. Or perhaps they truly believe they are getting discriminated against any time things don't go their way.

It made her say it somewhat less, but it wasn't until the day I literally screamed at mom for never once speaking up for me when she says that and how absolute sh1t she was for saying things like that, and from then on it started to change.
    In our case, she's my YOUNGER sister and she did that because she was really emotionally fkd at the time. She needed therapy and some help, but eventually we all worked out sh1t out and she's a normal decent human now. That was prior to her really growing up - if you're still absolutely sh1tty to people after you finish growing, and you don't even acknowledge any of how awful you are to others, YTA. :'D The OP absolutely was doing right by refusing any attendance in that half-sibling's life.

Every book, move, story, etc. is filled with sibling love and the natural love they have for each other. It would confuse kids until someone makes it as clear as wanting them dead. That poor 10 year old girl. No matter what age she is, it's going to live in her mind forever.

      Plus when you're a kid all the tension you pick up on, you tend to assume it's your fault, that you did something wrong and if you can just fix it and get it right everything will be fine. You don't expect the "grownups" (any person more than a handful of years older is a grown-up to very little kids) to be wrong.

    For the last story, I have something to say! I'm very overweight myself and was placed as a bridesmaid for my cousin's wedding, the demand was to choose a green from the ones the couple had already selected and pick a dress from it. The bride herself told me I could opt for a suit (all black, white shirt and green bowtie) if I felt more comfortable. I did try to find something that would look good, but the bigger you are, the uglier clothes get, I did drop 12cm on my waistline for the event (I wanted to, nobody asked me for it) but my shoulders are huge (larger than my hips) and there was still nothing good enough, so I ended up wearing a suit.
    It's just the SIL wanting to be difficult, she had so many options and still chose to be difficult about the whole thing. Sure, the bride was fatshaming there a bit, but I'm guessing SIL tends to make her weight everyone's problem.

      There can be many things that make you not look your best for a day. Not all dress styles suit all women. But if you love your friend who is getting married, you shrug and look less than great for a day just for her. Thing here was that the girl wasn't some close friend of the brides so she wasn't going to just sacrifice for a day in a far less than amazing dress. I have lots of sisters and have got stuck in some AMAZINGLY ugly dresses. You give it up for the bride because her day. Can she really NOT wear the dress, or would she simply not look good in it? Because it sounded like the later and that's no excuse for a bridesmaid.

      @@charlotteinnocent8752 The story is told by the bride, so I'm inclined to bias towards the SIL... This bride and her skinny friends purposely choosing styles that don't work on bigger SIL is passive aggressive behavior, like "you are not welcome here" said with clothes. The bride admitted so herself in the post, she ultimately picked something she knew would not suit her fat FIL on purpose, so she would drop out. And then tried to gaslight her saying she was feeling excluded for no reason. IF the bride had said she genuinely tried to pick something that would suit EVERYONE, then I'd give her the benefit of the doubt, that the SIL WAS being difficult... But this feels like it was literally set up so the fat person self-excluded. Like something super revealing, that even if she DID choose to wear the imposed dress, she would then be told she ruined the photos or something because she didn't look "appropriate" in the dress. I don't think it's about SIL's vanity, her discomfort is 100% by design from the bride's will to exclude her from her wedding party.

I just don't know SIL enough yet."
      My comment was not excuses the bride, it was about how I feel this SIL needs to NOT let the dress be the thing that stops her.
      Brides NEVER chose a dress that "suits everyone". They chose the one they like and the bridesmaids like it or lunk it. That's how it goes for the whole wedding.
      Is the bride a bit of a B? Definitely. But if I were SIL I'd wear the dress to throw it in her face. Also, I would be annoyed at my family for pushing me into a wedding party like that. They also are a holes because they have put her in so many awkward situations. She is the odd one out not because of her weight but because she is a stranger. Lots of a holes here really.

It was similar to the dress that she had made the year before for her formal and which I had borrowed for mine. It was also in a similar colour. That was the bridesmaids choice of colour, and her dress was similar to mine but cocktail length. We couldn't find anything to match for the men so they're both wore white with roses matching the bridesmaid flowers. I of course had Singapore Orchids in my bouquet with the same matching roses because my mother wanted Singapore orchids. My mother basically said what she wanted as to venue, and then my father and I sorted it all out because she made my father pay for my wedding.
