    Font - Posted by u/OstrichRepulsive3029 17 hours ago AITA for dropping out of my MOH role just few weeks before the wedding? My (25f) best friend of 12 years (25f) is getting married in 3 weeks. I was supposed to be her MOH but I dropped out of the role last week and before you judge me let me explain why. My best friend has been with her fiancé since they were both 19. A little before she got with her fiancé she had a short fling with my brother (29m). It wasn't a serious relationship and befor

    Font - So few days before I dropped out of my MOH role my brother revealed to me about how he had admitted he's in love with my best friend back then. He says he's always been bitter about how she dropped him to get with her current fiancé and how she was very mean when she rejected him. When he admitted his feelings to her she basically told him that they're nothing more than just a fling and there's not going to be anything more between them. My brother told me she was very mean to him and tol

    Font - So I dropped out. I told my bff the exact reason why and she was furious. She said my brother is stuck on the past and the only reason she didn't tell me was because she didn't want to put me in an awkward position since it's my brother. She said my brother and I are ridiculous for holding something that happened 6 years ago against her and how I'm basically an AH for dropping out over something so petty and minor just few weeks from the most important moment of hers. I don't think it was

So you're ending your 12year relationship with your best friend solely because she didn't have the same feelings for your brother as he had for her 6 years ago? He could have told you this at any time, but right before the wedding so she has to sweat about it? Dropping out doesn't make you a good sister. It does make you a bad friend. 22.5k Share

    Font - Electrical-Date-3951 · 15 hr. ago A Agreed. What did the brother hope to accomplish by revealing this now? The BFF is getting married. As harsh as it sounds, him being in love with her is a personal problem. (And, let's be honest - these types of infatuations are rarely love, but lust and/or loving the idea of the other person.) This scenario also gave me gross vibes. OP and the her friend would have been besties since they were 13. The brother 17. If the brother got with the BFF right at

It sounds to me like she was upfront and honest with him about the exact nature of their relationship, as she was with you, and he didn't like that boundary. I always worry about men who try to burn other people because they didn't like being told they can't have something. Dropping out now, for this reason, is horrible and mean.
