Wife Asks Reddit Users If She Is TA For Drinking Wine With Her BIL On Christmas

Nobody is perfect, and every couple faces some problem, be it small or prominent in their relationship. What matters the most is how well you handle your relation once the fight is over.

It is pretty normal to have insecurities towards your better half and be a little possessive about them. But being too possessive and throwing tantrums that can possibly ruin the relationship is not correct.

Two people decide to get married once they reach a certain maturity level and are old enough to understand one another. But getting upset with your partner for socializing with other family members is who is of another gender is wholly messed up.

This story tells us about a wife who has self-doubt about interacting with her BIL at a Christmas dinner while other family members are sitting in the hall. She thinks she is the one at fault because her husband is mad at her for doing so.

Hence she runs over to Reddit to get some opinion to probably change her mind and also to vent a bit and feel a little light. For obvious reasons because her husband wouldn't talk straight to her face.

While Reddit users showed her their full support, some also criticized her husband. Few taunted her for marrying a child, which is apt in this case because her husband behaved like one.

No woman, that doesn't make you TA but a respectable member of the family.

It would have been wrong if the wife did something wrong with her BIL after getting drunk.

BIL helps with the food because he loves cooking and not because the wife's in the kitchen.

When the prego sister isn't offended, why is the husband overreacting for literally no reason?

This is the funniest comment, but makes the most sense out of all.

If helping while cooking is called flirting, then I have been flirting with my brother all this while.

This whole situation gives the wife a chance to pull the husband for cooking with her.

The one who should be getting mad is chilling and the one who should be chilling is getting mad. The irony!

The whole point of getting angry was not because they were talking but because the BIL chose cooking over watching sports.
