Today, my fiancé asked for money to bail his brother out of jail, the same brother who happily spent a whole day recently trying to convince my fiancé that I've been cheating on him with my own cousin. So I said no. He shook his head in disgust and said that I'm "unbelievably spiteful". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my fiancé and his family accused me of being with him only because he's rich, refusing to go ahead with the wedding. I accepted his marriage proposal 4 years ago, when he was penniless and unemployed. FML
Today, my dad is refusing to let me marry my fiancé because he said no when my dad asked for a loan of £10,000 to help clear some gambling debts. Apparently that shows my fiancé has poor family values and will be a bad father and an alcoholic husband. Impressive logical thinking there. FML
Today, at a family gathering, it emerged that my now ex-fiancé has been sleeping with his brother's girlfriend for some time now. A fight broke out, the police were called, and more than one of his relatives are blaming me for him cheating with her. FML
Today, my fiancé accused me of cheating and broke up with me. I texted his best friend, who I've never talked to before, to see if he could talk some sense into my ex. Turns out he has several fiancées and was cheating on me since day one. FML
Today, my boyfriend admitted that he thinks I'm cheating on him, with my brother. FML
Today, my now ex-boyfriend called me from jail, expecting me to bail him out. He'd tried to buy a load of booze at the liquor store and came up short by ten cents. The cashier refused to be short-changed, and he figured the only reasonable reaction was to punch her in the face. FML
Today, my fiancé and I had a fight over household expenses. He's never had a job in his life, but this didn't stop him demanding that I get another full-time job to pay for video games and beer. FML
Today, my brother offered my boyfriend $50 to dump me. Guess who's single. FML
Today, at a fancy date, my boyfriend said he forgot his wallet. I was instantly furious, threw a drink in his face, and yelled that he was a no-good, tiny-dicked broke loser. Dripping wine, he then said, "…but I can still pay with my phone. You didn't let me finish." FML
Today, I caught my fiance lying about being at work. Furious, I started breaking his things, demanding to know what skank he'd been sneaking around with. He gave me a stack of receipts, saying he'd been Christmas shopping. He's not cheating, just getting me everything I wanted. God, I'm a psycho. FML

There's one delinquent asshole like that in every family. If you think your family doesn't have one, it's you.

TheWhiteLotus - I see you're new here, so I'll be as helpful as possible. What I said is something called a "joke" which used a device called "sarcasm" to create something called "humour". I (try to) do that a lot around here, as do many others. Got it? Good. I do this because I care and I'm a nice ******* guy.

You did the right thing OP. A guy like that deserves zero sympathy.

sure, but he's family. so...

No, I hate this excuse "well he is family so..." we have to go out of our way to cater to him. When my brother broke into our neighbors house and stole some jewelry, we let him sit in jail for six months. He earned the punishment. He was lucky the judge was lenient. We supported him, but we did not let familiar ties blind us to their real faults.

Maybe you should just be the bigger person and help. I know it's hard, but it's the right thing.

Why is bailing him out the right thing? He broke the law and therefore had to go to jail. He was an asshole to his brother's fiancé and now has nobody to bail him out. Both of these things are his fault. The OP is not responsible for getting this guy out of trouble.

I'm not saying OP has to bail him out unless he's innocent because maybe we're jumping to conclusions in saying he deserves going to jail. Don't get me wrong the brother is a total ass, but he's also soon to be family. Sorry if you interpreted what I said wrong 23.

You don't teach people lessons by letting them get away with shit all the time, without consequences.
baref00tmama 15
Even if he IS innocent, OP doesn't have to bail him out! He was a douche and ended up burning one of his bridges.The lesson he needs to learn is that if you treat people badly, they won't be around when you need them.

Sounds like the brother's trying to ruin your relationship. When he eventually gets out of jail, I seriously advise you to be careful around him and never enter any situation alone with him. Avoid him like the plague. And you didn't mention whether or not your fiancee believed you. If there are serious trust issues going on, deal with them before marriage.

His brother is an asshole. Since you decided not to bail him out, I have a feeling he's about to become a quite experienced asshole ;)

He'll get over it op.

Well his brother can stay there. If your fiancé can't see what a douche he's being then maybe you guys need to have a chat

Hey you did the right thing by saying no. You do the crime, you do the time.
TheCanucklehead 22
Who wouldn't say no

And your fiance doesn't have the money himself because…?
Enslaved 38
Maybe he does but it still wasn't enough and needed more funds. Some bails are set high.
EmiEvelyn 12
If it was so high, then what the brother done can't be good. Still think he should sit for a bit

I would've told him go choke on a dick.
