    The final straw came when I discovered that she'd been texting [my fiancé]'s mom, suggesting that maybe our relationship "wasn't stable" and that we might be rushing things. When I confronted her, she laughed and said I was "being dramatic."

  • 03
    My fiancé (Chris) proposed last July, and we were thrilled. My sister (Dianne, 28) has always been competitive with me, but I thought she'd be happy for me. I was wrong.

    A week after our engagement, Dianne started dating my fiancé's best man (Ted). This wouldn't be weird except they've NEVER shown interest in each other before. It felt like she was trying to insert herself into my wedding circle. When I talked to her about it, she claimed it was "just a coincidence."

    Then things got worse. She started "casually" mentioning how Ted was having second thoughts about being Chris' best man. She'd make comments like, "He seems stressed about the wedding" or "Ted doesn't really want to do all this wedding stuff." I could see she was trying to create drama.

    I've now told her she's not welcome at the wedding. My parents are furious, saying I'm being too harsh and that "family is family." But I feel like she's been actively trying to sabotage my relationship.

    Chris supports my decision, but my entire extended family is now taking sides. Some cousins think I'm overreacting, while others think Dianne has always been toxic.

    CPTSD throw92 • 23h NTA. Funny how "family is family" somehow doesn't apply to your sister actively trying to sabotage your relationship. Family doesn't (shouldn't) do that, so where's the pushback from your parents on that? I'd put some healthy distance between myself and anyone who tried to excuse away what your sister did, if it were me. ... ← Reply 881 ↓

    CozyCupcakez • 18h You're NTA. Your sister is a jealous, manipulative j. She's trying to ruin your happiness because she can't stand to see you happy. Your parents are being ridiculous. Family is family, but that doesn't mean you have to tolerate toxic behavior. You're right to cut her out. It's your wedding, and you deserve to have it surrounded by people who love and support you. Don't let your family pressure you into having someone who's actively trying to sabotage your relationship at your

    Drever19611a • 23h . NTA. Your sister's behavior-dating the best man, stirring up drama, and undermining your relationship ―was manipulative and toxic. Cutting her from the wedding protects your peace and ensures the focus stays on you and Chris. Family ties don't excuse such actions, and prioritizing your happiness is the right choice. Reply 46

    BlueGreen 1956 • 23h NTA Let her come to the wedding. Then, "accidentally" throw a large glass of wine on her dress and stick a big I of gum in her hair. Reply 16

    NTA. DawnShakhar • 9h Interesting: "Some cousins think I'm overreacting, while others think Dianne has always been toxic.". I'm willing to bet that the ones who think you are overreacting are the ones who don't know her very well, while the others, sadly, had ample opportunity of seeing her true character. ← Reply

    Surround Miserable262 .7h NTA. Invite her. But hire a security guard for the day to babysit her. Any hint of drama she gets kicked out. She also sits on the kiddy table. Meet the guy before explain to him everything and tell him this is purely to embarrass the sh out of her. Put the guy in a special thank you for making everything run smoothly speech. Also tell in said speach all the sh she has pulled in the run up to the wedding and why

    insert his name is here today. Please give him a round of applause for doing a stellar job. Give him a meal. Tip him well. Also to be extra petty if she has a meltdown about it. Have him escourt her to a room which has already been prepared which has colouring. A how to play nicely book. A sensory calm bottle.
