Today, I overheard my mum tell my sister that she should make me a bridesmaid at her wedding. My sister scoffed, "She looks like Shamu, mum. I can't have THAT in my wedding pics." followed by laughter and my mum saying, "Touché." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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’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 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 best friend informed me that I could not be her maid of honour because I "wasn't as pretty as the other bridesmaids" and she wanted her wedding photos to have "consistency". FML
Today, I was having lunch with my sister and my mother. While my mom was busy ordering food, my sister said to me, "Look at this!" then contorted her face so that she had a double chin. My mother looked over and said to her, "Stop making fun of your sister!" FML
Today, my best friend told me that I wasn't invited to her wedding, saying that I was too pretty and that I would outshine her at the ceremony. I laughed and said that she was being ridiculous. She eventually confessed the real reason why I wasn't invited: apparently I'm an annoying bitch. FML
Today, I overheard my boyfriend's future sister-in-law ask him not to bring me to the wedding. Apparently, me being so much shorter than everyone else is "embarrassing" and "would make the pictures look weird." 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 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, my mom took a picture of me. All she could say about the picture was, "At least your sister is pretty." FML

I had a similar experience except it was my sister in law. She invited me to be in the wedding party and was supposed to pick me up to go dress shopping and never showed. Then calls that evening and said they went without me because they didn't think any of the dresses would fit me. I was a size 10. Talk about a slap in the face. That was 22 years ago but stuff that hurtful is hard to forget. I feel your pain OP.

Politely ask her how a ho can turn into a housewife

You should pay her back by "accidentally" ruining her wedding dress on the day of her wedding....bet she wouldn't want that in her pics either

The correct response would be 'pas de touche'.

How mean. I'm sorry OP. But the joke is really on your sister. She's gonna be stuck in marriage and that's the pits lol!

Actually, the joke is on the poor schnook marrying OP's sister. He's going to be stuck with a shallow wench for years.

I was told to lose weight before getting married to the a guy, I just looked at him and asked, why. His answer was for once you should look good in a picture. I did lose weight, well I dumped him so that shed a few pounds there and then, since he wasnt marring me really. Your family sound horrible, the wedding should be about family, not who is the most stunning or starved person. I hope you get your courage up and tell your sister and mum, that you is a great person, worth more then their shallow remarks and no you do not want to attend the wedding or send a gift. And to any who ask, just say they said you werent pretty enough to be part of the wedding.
