No one wants their ex-boyfriend at their wedding - especially if they cheated on you with your own sister,
But that's the horrible situation one bride-to-be finds herself in, having been dealt another blow after her sister announced she'd be bringing him along as a date to her wedding.
According to this distressed bride-to-be, she and her sister had a serious disagreement a few months ago over the wedding guest list, back when she and her fiancé first had first begun planning their big day.
The 29-year-old explained that her elder sister is currently dating her ex-boyfriend of a few years, the same man who initially caused a rift between the sisters.
Despite all that's happened between the three of them, her 32-year-old sister still wants to bring along the cheating ex as her date, leaving her in a very uncomfortable situation.
Things have been pretty "tense" between the two siblings ever since their heated argument, and although the future bride has "tried to be civil", she admits things have been tricky. She now isn't sure whether or not to send her sister a wedding invite.
Taking to Reddit, the stressed-out bride revealed: "We both said some hurtful things, and things have been tense ever since. We haven't spoken much since then and it's been difficult to be around each other.
"[...] On one hand, she's my sister and I don't want to completely exclude her from such an important event in my life. On the other hand, things are still tense between us and I don't want her to cause any drama or ruin my special day."
Infidelity aside, her boyfriend had shown a "tendency to be selfish and dismissive" of her feelings during their past relationship, which is another reason why she just doesn't want him there on her special day.
Reaching out for some words of wisdom, she continued: "I've decided to have a conversation with her and see if we can work things out. I don't want to hold a grudge forever, and I don't want her to feel excluded from my life."
Many Reddit users were left lost for words at the sister's audacity, with one person advising: "I would explicitly ban [your ex] from any event you host and decline to be at any family events he attends.
"Your sister... is a terrible human being and IF you still want a relationship with her it would be on the understanding he is not allowed anywhere near you, especially at your wedding."
Another commented: "Why would you want her there? She clearly doesn't respect you in any capacity and don't be surprised if they ruin it. You need better boundaries, this shouldn't even be a thought you entertain."
