Husband Asks Reddit If He Did the Right Thing by Shutting His Wife Up When She Made a Rude Comment About His Sister
A husband stands up for his sister instead of supporting his rude wife, and she starts backpedaling at him.
It's not about you or me in a loving relationship. It all comes down to us.
"There is no partnership without the 'us,'" according to a quote. Regrettably, this is not the case for every relationship.
Couples can build relationships on rudeness, disdain, and a lack of respect. "Toxic relationships" are used to describe certain types of partnerships.
These types of alliances have two benefits, such as the wisdom and strength gained after ending a toxic relationship, and four drawbacks, including shame, low self-esteem, and criticism. There are two significant benefits associated with toxic relationships.
One of the benefits of being in a bad relationship is the wisdom you gain. This is arguably the most important life lesson you will ever learn because after breaking up with someone who demeans you as a person, you will understand self-appreciation and that you deserve better.
Another possible benefit is that you will feel stronger after successfully exiting a toxic relationship. To confront your toxic partner and end the relationship, you'll need a lot of courage.
This is why many people believe they are solid and ready to deal with any future relationship. Toxic relationships, on the other hand, have numerous significant drawbacks.
To begin with, humiliation is a typical occurrence in a toxic relationship. And to state the fact, there are more disadvantages than advantages, and the perfect example is this Reddit user's story.
OP was absolutely right to tell his wife to STHU for the remarks she made towards OP's 16-year-old sister.
u/AITA-Rating4556It's really sad, and no one can deny that chemotherapy makes a person insecure about their looks.
u/AITA-Rating4556A "hello, how are you" from your wife to your parents would have been nice; it shows her disinterest in your family.
u/AITA-Rating4556
That is such a horrible thing to say to a child, especially if that child is your husband's sister.
u/AITA-Rating4556
OP did the right thing by standing up for his sister; he should have reacted the same way regardless of who it was.
u/AITA-Rating4556
Being a makeup artist does not give her the right to insult anyone or make rude comments about anyone's looks.
u/AITA-Rating4556
It did not seem like advice when she chuckled; it sounded more like a taunt.
u/AITA-Rating4556
She ruined the respect that the parents had for her. Her disinterest and rudeness were enough for the parents to cut ties with her.
u/AITA-Rating4556
No! OP was absolutely right, and if he hadn't shut her down right away, she would have taken it too far.
u/AITA-Rating4556
OP, you should consider what you have gotten yourself into. She is insensitive and just doesn't care about your family.
u/AITA-Rating4556
That behavior was simply unacceptable; first, she bullies a child and then acts like it was okay to do so!
u/AITA-Rating4556
If she genuinely wanted to help, being a makeup artist means she has deep knowledge that she refused to share.
u/AITA-Rating4556
She should have said, 'Do not use this; instead, use this product for faster results.'
u/AITA-Rating4556
Being beautiful on the outside doesn't matter if you are not beautiful on the inside, and OP's wife is definitely not!
u/AITA-Rating4556
This is really bad if a normal person said so, but it's worse that it's coming from a makeup artist.
u/AITA-Rating4556
She did no justice to her profession, and I would recommend people never go to her for their makeup needs.
u/AITA-Rating4556
Whoever's dad said that made the most appropriate comment ever, especially in this scenario.
u/AITA-Rating4556
She made the husband look wrong for not respecting her, but what about her not respecting a recovering cancer patient?
u/AITA-Rating4556
There is no doubt about it; the wife is surely the TA here. A big one!
u/AITA-Rating4556
Oh, I agree. She can make herself look good with cosmetics, but I wish she would eat them and become good from the inside as well.
u/AITA-Rating4556
STHU is just minimal here! She deserves a bigger insult on a much bigger platform than a video call with parents.
u/AITA-Rating4556
If it were someone other than her husband, they would have gone wild and sent her out of their home.
u/AITA-Rating4556
This woman needs a filter on her face and on her mouth as well, to keep her mouth shut.
u/AITA-Rating4556
YES! We all hope that by now she would have become your ex-wife.
u/AITA-Rating4556
She clearly does not respect the parents, the sister, or even her husband.
u/AITA-Rating4556
This is the type of wife that breaks a family into fragments. They misbehave and make the husband choose between them and his family, which is absolutely wrong.
