Oh no no she's definitely a terrible terrible monster for wanting the man who raised her to not have to share the spotlight with a glorified sperm donor and all the people telling her that aren't terrible narcissistic idiots no I'm being 100% genuine here and I can't understand why you aren't respecting my totally reasonable and equally valid point of view.

While the theme to "My Two Dads" plays. Though "I'll be there for you" may not be the most appropriate lyrics given the circumstances.

The surprise twist is that she's actually a professional trapeze artist and she needs both dads to walk her down the aisle so she can launch off their shoulders into a double backflip and land perfectly at the altar.

The post said college age, so I assume somewhere between 18 and 25, in general. I�ve been out of college for a long time though, so maybe there�s more 30 yos hanging around in school so they don�t have to start paying for their loans.

The wife is a total rear end in a top hat treating the sister like a prop for her wedding, husband is so loving blind and used to treating his sister like poo poo it literally doesn't occur to him that she's actually a person and not just a body he grew up with.

Sister should tell them all to gently caress off and live her life.

E: husband should preemptively divorce as he doesn't realize it yet but he is a prop for his new wife too.

AITA for turning the home I inherited into an Airbnb? My sister thought it would be a �family home� forever.

quote:

I will try to keep it very short so as to not bore anyone. About six months or so ago my grandpa died. For simplicity sake, let�s say hi estate is worth about $1.5 million. In his will he said that me, my sister and my cousin each get 1/3 share. His estate was basically two cash amounts and the other share was his beach home in California. Basically the oldest got to pick which they wanted, the second oldest and the youngest which was me. M

I got the beach house, my sister and cousin got $500k. For the last six months I�ve allowed my sister to stay in the house whenever she likes but I just got my first tax bill and I either have to sell it or start making some income off it. After talking to the real estate agent I�ve decided the best course of action is to put it on Airbnb. That way I can still use it if I like, but sister can pay me to use it if she still wants to go there, basically there�s not someone renting full-time.

My sister is furious with me for so many reasons, first of all I know she�s upset because she can no longer use the house for free. But she�s also telling me that I basically becoming a rent seeking capitalist who is going to ruin the neighborhood which has been a total classic surf neighborhood since the 1950s. She has written me angry email after angry email after angry email calling me all sorts of names. She also says it�s not fair because her inheritance is gone for her debts but I still make money from mine, and that if she had chose the house I could stay there any time I want. She�s my older sister and I�ve always been impressionable to the things she says to me and I�m feeling a lot of guilt and shame for what she told me. Am I the rear end in a top hat here?

AITA if I haven�t talked to my sister in a month after she ruined a family photo and made my wife cry at our wedding reception?

More of a �are we the assholes� because it�s about both my wife and I. TL;DR: at bottom. My apologies for grammar and formatting errors, posting on mobile and struggled keeping it under 3000 characters.

My wife�s cousin was supposed to do a reading for the wedding, but canceled at 7am. Due to this, we were relying on my sister. I called my sister she said she'd do it.

A few hours before the wedding. My sister sent my wife a text: �I�m really sorry that I cannot read the prayer I just can�t handle reading in front of so many people thank you for understanding!�

My wife said: �I accept your apology, but I don�t understand. We needed you to do this after my cousin bailed and stressed me out so I can�t be stressed out on our wedding day. Don�t worry about it. Thankfully my maid of honor stepped in, �

While not ideal, everything else at the wedding was perfect.

At a Mexican wedding reception, the bridesmaids have to participate in a serpentine dance where they run around the bride/groom. Afterwards is the bouquet toss.

My wife called my sister over to participate and she kept saying no. My wife thought she couldn�t hear her over the four hundred people talking and the music so she yelled at my sister. She finally did come over and said that she wasn�t going to do the serpentine. My wife pleaded to her that this was the one thing my sister couldn�t back out of and she still said no. So my wife wife said okay and rolled her eyes.

My sister said she couldn�t participate because she had hurt her foot and that my wife screamed at her. I told my sister I would talk to my wife, but that she had to participate because as a bridesmaid for the bouquet toss. If she couldn�t run she could be at the front and walk. I went to my wife and she explained her side to me, but before we could talk to my sister, the serpentine started. Thankfully my sister joined in at the front.

After this, my sister left for 45 minutes. I had been wanting a family photo with my dads family, the first in a decade. And when it was time to do it, my sister refused to come back in.

When my sister finally came back in, my wife apologized that she only yelled because she thought my sister couldn�t hear and that she had wanted her to not miss out on the bouquet toss or the awesome serpertine.

To which my sister said angrily replied, �I accept your apology, but I don�t forgive you and we will talk about this later.� Before she walking back to her table.

It was the final straw and my wife started crying. Her moms friend saw her crying and told her parents and she had to tell them what happened.

We are still upset and hurt by my sister�s actions during what should have been a perfect night centered on us.

So Reddit, are we the assholes here?

TL;DR: My sister refused multiple times to participate in wedding activities, missed important family photos, and made my wife cry. We have not talked to her since . We are still angry and hurt.

That dance they mention is a lot of fun but depending on how drunk and rowdy the guests are it can get pretty intense. I've been to a few wedding receptions where people were having wardrobe malfunctions and toppling over from centripetal force due to running around way too fast on the dance floor.

They could have required a forced sale and split all the cash evenly and then never stay there again. Instead OP got an extremely illiquid asset that requires money to maintain, and his sister is upset that she has to share the cost of she wants to use it. She's a jerk.

yup this. shes being the rear end in a top hat here.

i hate airbnb with a passion, but it's not as if he managed to get $500k in cash that he can just stash into equities and make $$ off capgains and dividends, and the property tax is probably $5000 or more which could be a lot of money depending on what their situation is like--let alone maintenance and upkeep which is probably another $5000/yr over time. saltwater loving eats poo poo up like no other. if he sold it, after taxes and fees he'd probably get less than the 500k each of them got. airbnbing a lovely surf town house makes the most sense and probably the least immoral case for airbnb anyways with since its all tourism poo poo or ends up a 2nd/3rd/4th beach house for a rich to use a few times a year anyways.

also you can just block out some dates as-needed and let them stay if he wanted to.

Yeah, I think the perceived harmlessness makes the gross dudes really brazen. I'm reminded of a post from waaaaaay back in this thread about a woman whose boyfriend had a fetish for a particular kind of sock and how he'd started openly ogling women with those socks on in public, asked female friends to take their shoes off at parties, poo poo like that -- just the most blatant sleazy moves, but with the vague plausible deniability of being fixated on a "non-sexual" body part.
