    Font - AITA For not delaying my wedding because my sister is going through a terrible divorce? My sister Rachel is separating from her husband Mark. Somebody anonymously sent Mark a letter in the mail claiming their three kids werent his (ages 1, 3 and 4). Mark took a paternity test because the letter was so detailed he had a feeling it might be true. The results came back and he wasn't the father of any of the kids. Mark now wants nothing to do with my sister or my nieces and nephew. It's been

    Font - The problem is My fiancé and I are getting married soon. Everything is set for the end of October and everyone is excited, but Rachel. She's told me multiple times to change the wedding date so she can heal from the trauma of her husband abandoning her and their children. I told her no and she burst into tears claiming I wasn't being supportive and she wasn't coming. My fiancé's family have all booked time off to come to this wedding because they live out of state. She claims l'm choosing

    Font - UnluckyBid7655· 14h 1 Award NTA OP, you already had the day basically ready, people already have that time off, (and personal bias, halloween wedding? That better go through.) Your sister talks about getting over trauma, yet shes the one that I'm sure broke a man? Enjoy your wedding and bust out a monster bash. She can take this time to either look for a sitter for the kids or learn how to deal with her own choices in life. + 2.5k ...

    Font - CaliforniaJade · 14h Craptain [168] 3 7 Awards All three of their children aren't his? That she repeatedly cheated on her husband and is now dealing with the consequences does not mean you don't get to move along with your life's plan. How would that sound, anyway? I'm postponing my wedding so my sister that basically cheated on her husband 3'x can feel supported. NTA 4 24.8k 3 ...

    Font - Widgetsinparadise · 14h NTA. Your sister caused much of her own "trauma". She lied and I would assume cheated on her husband so he left her. She wasn't just abandoned. Enjoy your wedding. Probably best if she wasn't there anyways. 4 6k 3 ...

    Font - PARA9535307 · 13h Certified Proctologist [25] NTA. If she wanted to politely decline the invite, that'd be one thing. l'd be inclined to be pretty magnanimous about it. But asking you to reschedule? Yeah, no. It's on her to bear the consequences/fallout of her own shitty actions. Not on everyone else. So keep your wedding date. And just in case, maybe assign a trusted family member/friend to keep an eye on her during the event. In case she needs a shoulder to cry on or (god forbid) throws

    Font - ConfusionExact7663 · 14h NTA! Your sister sounds very very entitled. The situation she's in is unfortunate for her husband and children, but your life does not revolve around her and her self-inflicted pain. She can always skip the wedding. Enjoy this wonderful time! Don't let her ruin it. You are NOT choosing his family over her. You are living your life and choosing yourself over someone who is highly self-centered. 4 60 3

    Font - NTA People will focus on the fact your sister cheated and got caught. That has no bearing on your choice not to move your wedding date. Even if your sister's husband was the villain here, you would have no obligation to move the wedding date. Your sister's situation may mean she is unable to celebrate your marriage. She is not the star of the wedding. You are. Good luck and congratulations!! 4 305 ...

    Rectangle - ihertzwhenip · 14h NTA. This is something long planned. She may as well have asked the school to reschedule the start of their school year. It's understandable her not wanting to come. Expecting you to delay months of planning due to her indiscretions is unreasonable 4 42 3 ...

    Font - Happy-Let5770 · 13h Partassipant [1] NTA.. She has so far caused chaos in 4 lives and her own. How many more people does she want to create trouble for? Your sister will never heal enough to see you having a happy wedding or relationship. She is a very selfish, self involved woman. Why do I have a feeling she is using her kids against you and your family for sympathy and attention? Be very careful of her, she cannot be trusted not to drag you down with her. Sheesh.. I can only imagine wha
