Hey all. So if you've seen my last few posts, there was drama with my sister about wearing a dress. I've gotten over that hurdle and have let her pick out a romper matching the bridesmaids dresses. Even after getting her way, I am ready to kick my sister out of the wedding after our encounter on Thanksgiving.
I've been reading up on how kicking a sibling out of a wedding party can be relationship ending so I'm trying to suck it up/proceed with caution on this. But on Thanksgiving, she was nothing but bitter and mean to both me and my FH. She went on a full on rant about how stupid and unsupportive men are and there are no decent ones in existence. Back story, she broke up with her toxic BF, so I get that bitterness. But, I communicated to her nicely I didn't appreciate her saying that because I personally am marrying an amazing man and also my dad was in the conversation so her sweeping generalization was uncalled for. Her response was "Dad is awesome and I guess your FH is fine" while rolling her eyes. Mind you, you might think she's acting out because she's jealous, but I have been avoiding talking about wedding planning because I don't want to hurt her feelings. Additionally, my FH has never given a reason for her to not like him. He has kept his mouth shut and has been nice to her this entire time.
My parents aren't even stepping in to tell her to cut it out. In fact they're afraid of her tantrums to the point where they encourage her bad behavior. It's been a literal uphill battle with her outside of this one conversation as well. Not once has she asked if she can help me out with planning. I've literally talked to my mom about this at least a dozen times and she continues to not listen to me and defend my sister.
Wedding planning is supposed to be fun and I wanted more than anything for my sister to be involved. But it's been nothing but stressful and I've hit my limit.
Any advice on what I should do? Is this grounds to kick my sister out of my wedding? Honestly I would love to maintain a positive relationship with her, but shes making it difficult even when I go out of my way to support her and understand where she's coming from. She isn't doing the same for me and it bums me out.
