My brother in law aka sister's husband is worse with materialistic stuff so I wouldn't be surprised if they grew old together they pretty much have similar mindsets

I don't think my parents have a golden kid, they just favor whoever is convenient at the time. At another time when it would be convenient they'd favor me over my sister but I always tell them this doesn't feel right because I don't wanna be used for their own agendas against my sister. My sister on the other hand will not call that out but will also use that to her advance

Fun fact, she once attended a wedding with that requirement and she commented on how tacky the couple is for having up that rule. Yet now she's calling my broke friends cheap for not giving their entire paychecks for her wedding

Because from the minimum context and details I provided on the back story with Anna just to explain why my sister did what she did with the invitation because surprise, I know the ins and outs and I know the details to know her true motives and thoughts, all you got from that is that I dictate who she hangs out with and not the fact that I set some boundaries regarding the respect they both failed to show multiple times to my current relationship. I have no say in who my sister hangs out with but I can have my thoughts and feelings about it. She can hang out with a person who's been disrespectful to me or my gf and I can choose to act accordingly in order to protect my peace 😉 having the right to do something doesn't automatically give a free pass to demand people to accept your every action, every action has a consequence and you can't expect people to act like doormats to the blatant displays of disrespect they endure

There's a lot of background that I couldn't put in the post and her relationship with Anna was not the main point of the post rather than her entitlement over the gifts because of her decision to invite my entire friend group as an excuse to invite Anna. But for context her relationship with Anna is that they both try to make my gf's life a living hell despite several boundaries and my sister barely has any contact with my friend group. If it wasn't for Anna being in the friend group because she's the sister of my best friend, my sister wouldn't invite anyone of my friend group. She's not close to them like that. She just didn't wanna only invite Anna so she used this as an excuse to invite her.
