“I just needed to vent; I didn't think it will get this serious.”
Childhood memories often shape our adult lives, but for one 40-year-old woman, they also broke her into a million pieces. Our narrator (Original Poster) was significantly older than her little sister—15 years older, to be exact.
This meant OP was thrust into a de facto parental role from day one; she also found her wants and needs pushed aside in favor of her sibling. This kicked off an unpleasant childhood marked by neglect and forced OP to grow up faster than she should have. OP ended up going low contact with the entire family.
Things got interesting when her younger sister got engaged and wanted OP at the wedding party. The invitation was like a double-edged sword—equally joyful yet daunting.
OP had managed to rearrange the fractured pieces of her identity over the years, but traces of trauma still remained. One significant problem was her distress around children. They reminded her of years of parental neglect—which was bad for her psyche.
This wasn’t news to OP’s sister, yet her wedding wasn’t child-free. She also stated how it was perfectly understandable if OP couldn’t attend. There it was—after all these years, OP was still being cast aside, this time in favor of some random kids!
She couldn’t take it sitting down anymore, so she shared a strongly-worded post on Facebook about how her family kicked her out of the wedding despite being the reason for her trauma—and the response was explosive.
Relatives stood by OP’s side and threatened to boycott the wedding unless OP was reinstated. Was she an a***le for still refusing to go, except it was child-free?
In the eyes of the Redditors, OP was indeed the a****le in every possible way. They agreed that despite the understandable trauma, expecting her sister to tailor her wedding entirely to OP's preferences was unrealistic.
The decision to leave the wedding party was OP’s choice, and criticizing family members with exaggerated truths was a low blow. Sometimes empathy and compromise are key, even amidst personal struggles.
