Mom Supports Her Younger Daughter Who Is Getting Married to Her Elder Sister’s Ex-Fiancé, and Redditors Come Down Hard on Her

I’m sure the title of this post had you going, "What? Yup, it’s a wreck."

To add to that, I would say most weddings are wrecks too—a wreck of feelings and bad conduct that we could likely avoid by not succumbing to the whole wedding saga, which is emphatically out of control. However, young ladies have been told for a long time that their wedding day is their "ONE BIG DAY," and they make sure that the D-day is always a success.

Most of the time, when we see weddings that are huge successes with zero drama, we tend not to know the struggles that the family went through behind the scenes. Well, this mother is in a dilemma as she doesn’t know if she’s being an asshole for supporting her younger daughter over her older daughter, so she shared her story with the AITA subreddit community.

This mom, named "u/mommyinthemud," told the community that her younger daughter, named Haleigh, is getting married to the ex-fiancé of her older daughter, Jennifer. When the wedding between Jennifer and her fiancé was called off, they discovered that it was because the said fiancé, named Sam, was dating Haleigh.

As the story goes...

And because the OP wanted to attend the wedding, Jennifer told her that she was "condoning her bad sister's behavior as always" and that she didn't understand that "Haleigh purposefully stole Sam from her, and that she's been doing this since they were kids."

Sam's apologizing

Jennifer is being supported by her dad

The OP’s husband supported their first daughter, stating that he wouldn’t walk Haleigh down the aisle and that he was disappointed in the OP for supporting their younger daughter by deciding to attend the wedding. Sam, on the other hand, in his defense, said he couldn’t marry Jennifer when his heart was with Haleigh, which is why he ended the relationship.

Things have gone bad

Everyone had their stories, and they ended up spending Christmas apart. The OP did answer some questions that people might have in their minds to ask her.

This is a hard one, and most of the AITA subreddit community was beyond disappointed in the OP. Here is what some of them had to say.

How did you become a mom?

Nothing I can do will convince her otherwise

It’s hard to choose between your own children, but then again, it’s not easy seeing an outsider wreck your home because of his confusing choices. You also have to understand that your daughter is hurt that her sister took her fiancé.

And then again, it’s all so confusing. Anyway, what would you do if you found yourself in this kind of situation?
