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

She doesn't deserve to be in the wedding then, OP.

Your wedding IS all about you! The groom is lucky if he can get a word in edgewise. Bridesmaids and groomsmen are as important as cannon fodder. They're just part of the scenery.

I thought they were there to tell stories about the couple and have drunken lapses in judgment that make the special day memorable for the bride?

Such as having sex with the bride or groom and causing the wedding to be annulled... *I feel so sad*
DKjazz 20
There, there, RedPillSucks. I didn't want to marry her anyway.

You deserve it for wanting a wedding

Please, explain your reasoning. Because from my side, it's looking to be full of holes, if it even exists.
TheDrifter 23
I recall that fml, full holes were in fact the basis of their marital issues.

Older or younger sister? Or middle? If she's the youngest she could be used to being the little princess of the family. In any case, good luck OP.

Let me elaborate; often times the youngest sibling will be like a prince or princess, and even the older sibling will pamper them as such. I love making sure my younger sister has the best of everything she wants and needs (within reason of course). I'm not trying to stereotype, I'm just applying what I've learned in my sociology classes, and seen in my own life. Picture a family, mom, dad, boy #1, boy #2, and finally a girl, ages 21, 19, and 17, respectively. I'm friends with the girl, but she can be annoying- she's the youngest and only girl of the family, and is used to getting what she wants. Sorry for any offence, I was just curious.

I'm not sure if its the age of the sister that would matter. She sounds just plain out selfish. I'm the youngest in a trio of sisters and no where near a princess. During my oldest sister's wedding I did everything for her with a smile on my face because I was happy for her and her husband. This sister hasn't learned how to be happy for others. Especially her family. It's probably best she's out. Unless you want continued drama from a self made Queen.

I'm the youngest in my family, and I am not treated like a "little princess". just saying this is Not always the case in every family.

#43, I understand. My older siblings took and still take care of me as I do my younger brother. But isn't that what siblings are for? To look out for each other in a positive way? If a individual takes that kind of gesture as I DESERVE these things, that's the problem. Age and gender have nothing to do with an ungrateful brat.

I'm sorry I made it come across that way, I didn't mean to stipulate that that is the case in all situations, merely that that CAN be the case. I was asking, again, just out of curiosity. I was not trying to broadly stereotype all youngest siblings, please do not take my statements personally. So again, I will apologize if I have offended you.

I find that Hispamic families tend to baby the boy and the youngest child. Not saying thats thebcase always, but from what Ive seen, Hispanics do that a lot. At least in Miami

Your sister sounds like a psycho.

You're the bride... It's supposed to be about you and your soon-to-be husband... I don't see how it's supposed to be about her at all.

It's your wedding..,does it matter what she thinks?

It's your day- don't let anyone try to force what they need or want on you.

Your sister is a f'n brat

You even asked for her to reconsider and she still rejected you? What a bitch. Glad she's out of the bridesmaid picture. She doesn't deserve to be one.

She was probably hoping that OP would beg her tearfully, and then make her feel extra special. Why don't people understand that it's an HONOR to be asked to be a bridesmaid? We ask the people we care about the most. And her sister didn't feel special enough? What does she want, a parade?
