Siblings are supposed to be your firstfriendsand one of your longest-lasting relationships.
Unfortunately, not all brothers and sisters get along.
Whether thats due to petty rivalry or more serious issues, its hard to repair broken sibling relationships.
A sister who was going to get married saw the opportunity to have both of her brothers at herwedding.
Despite that, nothing went the way she wanted it to.
He mentioned that his sibling had been horrible to him from the start.
So, when he learned how to use the grey rock method, he began doing that.
A person might do this if they know someone who is anarcissistor manipulative.
Goingno-contactis often an extreme step a person takes to protect themselves from abuse.
The man might have done this to stop his brother from negatively impacting his life and treating him badly.
The only problem he faced was when he received an invitation to his sisters wedding.
He immediately checked if hisbrotherwas invited because he wanted to avoid him.
After seeing that he was, he decided not to go.
But his family seemed to have other plans, and his sister and parents kept pushing him to attend.
They were willing to pay him $2000 to participate in the celebration.
It often goes unreported because people think such behavior is normal or they get used to the abuse.
The posters worst fears came true when he attended the wedding.
He just wanted to have a good time with his wife.
But as soon as his brother arrived, he called him a slur.
So OP and his wife left and used thebribemoney to pay for a lavish night out.
They need to setconsequencesfor the perpetrators behavior and show them its wrong to behave that way with their sibling.
But the guys mom focused more on how he used the money than her other sons actions.
This probably made the man feel unheard and invalidated.
Luckily, he could get a special night out of it with his wife.
Do you think OP was right to take the money and split from the event?
What would you have done?
