"It Was The Worst Betrayal I Have Ever Experienced": People Are Revealing The Shocking Reason Why They Don't Speak To Their Sibling Anymore
"Once it became clear he was committed to those ugly morals, I told him never to contact me."
Note: This story discusses emotional abuse.
"This is my baby brother, so he usually listened to me in things like this. But this time, he goes to my wife’s workplace and meets her in the parking lot to give her a face-to-face 'This is what I think of you.' That was it for me. You were told we didn’t want to talk to you right now. We requested that you leave us alone about this family beef. But now you are confronting my wife while she’s alone, and you’re shouting at her to intimidate her, backing her against her car because your wife yelled at you about it. That’s it for me. I told him he was lucky I didn’t handle it physically. I haven’t spoken to him in about seven years."
"The night of the rehearsal, my half-sister and my mom got into an argument about my hair, and my sister kicked me out of the wedding. Her mom told my mom that because I was no longer in the wedding, we had to leave, but my mom pointed out that my brother and dad were still in the wedding, so we didn’t have to.
Long story short, her mom slapped my mom across the face, the police were called, and nobody from my dad’s side of the family went to her wedding. As an adult, she is very close to my dad and brother, but I have next to nothing to do with her. I’ll see her at family get-togethers, but I have no interest in having her in my life outside of that.
I was still a kid, and she did irreparable damage to our relationship because of a hairstyle. All these years later, she still has not apologized for that night. What’s funny, too, is that, based on wedding pictures, none of her bridesmaids ended up with the hairstyle she wanted them to have because everyone had different types and lengths of hair. I hope it was worth it to her."
"It's now been 15 years since we last spoke. I went to her diploma ceremony a few months after this all happened where we didn't speak, and she actually didn't even look at me. Nobody in the family ever mentions this, and it's like it never happened."
"My sister has never made an effort to get to know him; in fact, she’s always made it a point to be rude to him and make snide remarks towards the both of us. We always just tolerated it.
When we got engaged, she was suddenly so excited and wanted to be involved in everything. I think she was trying to make up for her fast engagement and rushed wedding planning by trying to be involved in mine. She would throw out suggestions and get mad when I told her I already had this and that covered. I had told her ahead of time that I wanted all sisters in a certain color for the wedding, and I guess she misinterpreted it as bridesmaid colors. She was pissed when she showed up to the wedding and saw that my friends were bridesmaids in a different color and matching dresses. I never lied to her or tried to hide it from her that she wasn’t a bridesmaid, she just made that assumption.
She went back to being rotten and snide. Then I got pregnant, and then the fake kindness and desire to make it about her started up again. She wanted to plan my baby shower, and I point blankly told her that she was not invited. We haven’t spoken since. We’ve seen each other at family functions, but we don’t talk to each other, which I am fine with. I’ll take silence over snide remarks any day. So there you have it."
