Her Sister’s Fiancé Isn’t Invited To Her Wedding Since He Got Drunk And Said She Wasn’t Exactly A Catch At Her Engagement Party, So Now Her Sister’s Threatening Not To Attend
This 28-year-old woman and her fiancé, who’s 30, are supposed to tie the knot in three months, and they couldn’t be more excited. She has been planning the event for a year and wanted her wedding to be small, including only her closest friends and family.
However, her sister’s 27-year-old fiancé, Matt, has caused a lot of stress leading up to her big day.
For some background, her sister is 25, and they’ve always been extremely close, but she has never exactly liked Matt.
She believes her sister’s fiancé is condescending, rude, and totally disrespectful toward her sister.
“He makes little passive-aggressive comments to her in front of us, like calling her ‘scatterbrained’ or making jokes about her weight, which is completely inappropriate. She’s beautiful,” she explained.
Her sister usually just brushes off Matt’s remarks, too. But she knows that deep down, they hurt her sister’s feelings, and she’s tried talking about this issue with her. Every single time, though, her sister swears that Matt is simply “bad at joking” and never intends any harm.
Well, just a couple of months ago, she finally hit her breaking point at her engagement party. During the celebration, Matt actually got wasted and caused a massive scene.
He suddenly began talking about how much money her fiancé’s family made. She clarified that, yes, her future in-laws are “comfortable,” but it’s not like they flaunt their wealth.
Still, things got even worse when Matt turned to her and claimed that she was “lucky to lock down” a guy like her fiancé since she supposedly “wasn’t exactly a catch.”
Her own fiancé was obviously furious. Yet, they both let Matt’s drunken statements go for the sake of her sister.
Nonetheless, the situation left a really bad taste in her mouth, and she couldn’t overlook it while putting together her wedding guest list. And when she and her fiancé sent out their invitations, they opted not to invite Matt after all.
Her sister gave her a call about this a few days later, and she was very upset.
“I told her that after what happened at the engagement party, I didn’t feel comfortable having him at the wedding. I want my day to be filled with love and positivity, and I don’t want to risk Matt causing another scene,” she reasoned.
Instead of understanding that, her sister said that she couldn’t attend without Matt there. Her sister felt like she was forcing her to choose between family and her fiancé and believed that wasn’t fair because Matt would one day be her husband.
“I told her I love her and I want her there, but I’m standing by my decision not to invite Matt,” she revealed.
Her parents have since heard about this, and they took her sister’s side. They think she should let Matt come to avoid any more drama. As for her fiancé, he supports her decision.
Regardless, with her sister threatening to skip her wedding altogether, she’s wondering if forcing her to choose really is a jerky move.
Does Matt deserve to be at her wedding after the stunt he pulled during her engagement party? What advice would you give her?
