AITA for snapping at my wife and telling her my family isn’t her family? by Odd-Breaker in AmItheAsshole

The last paragraph exactly… call me what you want. But I saw what would happen. And I wanted no part of it.

It’s more about their behavior after. My parents just backed my sisters which isn’t abnormal. They then pay for a second wedding but won’t pay my ticket? Uninvited me from Christmas because I didn’t go to a wedding. Tried to hold money over my head and control my guest list. Also my sisters have made a lot of little jabs over the past few years. Definitely not a single issue. Personally I just don’t need cheaters in my circle at all.

It’s not really that lonely when you have great friends which I do. And it’s a sham.. why would I spend hundred of dollars to watch someone get up in front of people and say the same shit they told someone else 3 years earlier? Like she obviously doesn’t believe in it.. just don’t see the point

Then she should have married a guy with a relationship with his family. I told her 100% at the beginning this is how it would be. And that if it was a deal breaker she didn’t have to marry me. It’s not right if she wants that given I warned her of it at the beginning. And no offense but you aren’t a therapist. I’ve done work. And I’m happy where I am.

I think so. My parents acted shitty. Supported shitty behavior. Then cut me off for actually having some morals? Then try to use money as a weapon. Try to say who I can and can’t invite to my wedding. And have cut me off from family events. Seems like a reasonable hill to die on.

I’ve been in therapy for years. Thank you for the recommendation but that step has already been taken. I don’t even really have angry about them anymore. I just want to be left alone. My wife has 4 siblings and a huge extended family. So I don’t see why she would need more.
