Today, my sister backed out of my wedding because it was becoming too much about me. After I begged her to reconsider, I had no choice but to pick a new bridesmaid. When my new bridesmaid posted on Facebook how excited she was, my sister commented, "See, you made HER feel special." FML

Today, my sister told me she didn’t want me in her wedding pictures because I looked fat in my bridesmaid's dress. FML
Today, I told my sister I felt like her friends didn't like me, since they were ignoring my questions, opinions, etc., in the bridesmaids' chat, but were all over each other's messages. She kicked me from her bridal party, saying her friends wouldn't want me at the bridal shower and bachelorette party. FML
Today, my mother thought it would be a wonderful idea to make me late for me own wedding. It wouldn't be so bad if she hadn't focused solely on my sister because my wedding didn't center on her. The sister in question snubbed being my maid of honor over a year ago, and just decided to randomly show up. FML
Today, after a day of anxiety and worry that something bad would happen, I decided to keep my two daughters home from being flower girls at my sister's wedding. Now my sister and entire family is blowing up my phone. Apparently her wedding is my important than a mother worried about her babies. FML
Today, I’m supposed to be a bridesmaid at my sister's wedding, but she doesn’t want me in the photos because I’m over a foot taller than her and the other bridesmaids, and it will look silly in the photos. I told her I won’t even bother attending, and mom actually took her side. FML
Today, my sister looked prettier in her bridesmaid's dress than I did in my wedding dress. I love her to bits, but she won the genetic lottery out of the two of us, so even on my wedding day I feel inferior. FML
Today, my future sister-in-law cancelled my invitation to her and my brother's wedding. Her reason was that I was incredibly rude to announce my pregnancy to my family at a time like this, because it took all the attention away from her. FML
Today, my sister had me kicked out of her wedding reception for, in the words of her new husband, "harshing the buzz." FML
Today, an attention-seeking weirdo who thinks she's my friend asked me who was going to be the maid of honour at my wedding. Knowing what she was really asking, I said I just want a small, non-fancy wedding without bridesmaids. She broke down into a sobbing mess in front of me. FML
Today, my fiancée called off our wedding at the last moment, because her neurotic sister thinks she's "too fat" to be the maid of honor, and says she needs several months to lose weight. So that's a few thousand dollars wasted. My fiancée says I'm "overreacting" and that I "just don't get it". FML

And people wonder why we have Grammar Nazi's on here.
Ripplez13 9
Lol, I'm not always like that! Also, Nazis* Or, uh, maybe I am always on about grammar! XD
ManInTheMachine 19
My mistake. And I was just pointing out that people shouldn't wonder why people correct grammar on here when so many people have shitty grammar. Myself included in this case, I suppose. :)

Your wedding is all about you so don't let her make you feel bad OP. Your sister not being part of your bridal party is a blessing, I promise. Congrats!

@44 Maybe you were being a bit to clingy for her, or rapey... Maybe, she's a minor. Why don't you take a seat over there, 44.

She should **** all the way off!

I'm sorry OP, I recently got married 4 months ago, it took almost two years of planning, and I went through a few bridesmaids. I told them to begin with: I love you, but it's my day. I want you to be there for me, and I want you to have a great time. But, this is about me and my honey, no drama allowed. Half way through my Sister in Law from a siblings marriage, decided that she didn't get a "real" wedding because she got married at the court house, and started to use all my bridal show outings as if she was the one to get married. When we went to my family to plan and discuss, we literally took up hours of her talking about, her wedding that would be coming up "soon". I was told by my brother, her husband, to play along because she just wanted to dream, everyone agreed with him. I soon couldn't handle it when people told me congrats and she said thank you. The last straw was a few when she told everyone I was controlling her, and that I demanded her not to talk about her wedding. I just asked nicely, yes nicely (I hate real life confrontation, especially with family members, and often will cry from anxiety if I have to face any arguments) for her to not take my wedding magazines and talking about her wedding while we're planning mine. Thankfully, she waited to announce her pregnancy after we had gotten back from our honeymoon. I'm very happy for her, and I'm making her some booties for her little boy that is due in oct. I don't hate her, and I know she isn't evil, she's just...well, a girl. A girl that didn't get what she wanted and wanted to relive it, even in a fantasy world. No one else was as bad, just bad/uncontrollable things happened in there life and they couldn't be as involved in my big day as they wanted, and they all came to the wedding. :) Sorry for the long rant, I'm just saying that your sister is just jealous, and soon you'll be jealous as her. Just be the bigger person and don't let the jealousy spoil the happiness you could be feeling for her. She shouldn't be treating you that way, and I hope you have beautiful wedding and a wonderful, and happy marriage.

She'd probably ruin it anyway, don't feel bad OP!

Okay, your sister needs to back down! She needs to learn that it's your day, since you're the bride!!

Just offer to be one of her bridesmaids and do the same to her on her special day.

Your me-first sister needs to get the idiot smacked out of her.

Please please PLEASE tell your sister about herself. Please!
Metal_Chick 15
Are you "that sister" in your family?
cbroady0529 9
Um...I do not think you understood was I was saying. I was begging the OP to "tell" her sister "about herself" i.e. not let this become water under the bridge to avoid the confrontation. I want her to explain graphically to her selfish brat of a sister how rude and selfish and immature and loathsome she is acting. It's a pretty commonly used phrase where I live; I didn't realize it would mystify the FML community! And I am most certainly *not* "that" sister; I'm a classic middle child.

wow... Ex-bridesmaid-zilla

Call me crazy, but unless you're being a total Bridezilla, it is YOUR wedding. It kinda IS about you.

And the soon-to-be husband's role later in life...why does everyone forget about the guy?
ManInTheMachine 19
Let the self-absorbed bitch stew. She's daft if she thinks a wedding would be about anyone but the bride and groom.
Llama_Face89 33
Dude we all know the wedding is all about the bride. We're just along for the ride really. XD

Unless two men are getting married. My sister had no interest in a big wedding and wanted to elope. It was her current husband who wanted to have the church, flowers, etc. so that his mother would be happy.

If she is going to be acting like that, don't even feel bad about it. It's your day and she shouldn't be making it about her. Sorry OP
