1st story SIL is a bully. She bullies other women. When OP saw the tirade on his wife unprovoked; SIL was upset with herself that her mask was dropped. She also lost a target.
The dying SIL fears that OP can take away one of her punching bags and that's it, that's why she did the begging. And her cutting people off just to get her way when apparently she's dying makes me think the cancer isn't severe this time and she's simply using it as a manipulation tactic. As for this sudden change, I don't think it's that sudden but just she's not bothering to hide her true colors now. I bet that sil was always like this, but used to be more subtle about it before she could use the "I nearly died" or "I'm dying" card.
The second story...rings so true of my godmother. She has done nothing but give and love and support others in what I believe is proof of true altruism. She raised me (her student) and fed me while my mother battled drug addiction. She would give anything to anyone for the CHANCE to see them succeed. And now she's dying of early onset Alzheimer's. It's sick. It's unfair. No one deserves dementia or Alzheimer's...but no one deserves it LESS than people like Ma and Mary.
I remember when he joined the team people really disliked him (probably because he was new and folks don’t like change) but I think he’s the one with the voice I like listening to most :D
*reads the title* welp... time to see how OP tries to save this framing! ETA: Story1: i get OP is worried about getting involved. It's something to talk with his wife about, and YES do help. The MIL and YSIL are both asking for help after their own efforts are not working. I feel bad for the SIL with cancer, but at the end of the day, if she is a detriment to her family, that has to be considered regardless of how tragic. If OP is a presence that can keep SIL's negativity in check then, he may not even need to get directly involved but just be present. That said, if he does need to get involved, it should be discussed to what capacity. Edit for typos as well
Here's the thing. Sometimes, when a person is dying, he will be cruel to those he loves. He feels their grief will be less, if they are relieved at his passing. Unfortunately, grief is based in guilt. Creating conflict, which didn't previously exist, means loved ones already feel guilty and confused. Passing away in the middle of it leaves them holding the guilt alone. They grieve for what could have been. The loss isn't grief, as people hold onto happy memories, instead of what-ifs.
Story 2 is why I just can’t believe there is a God, because why did such a wonderful person have to live a life so horrible that death was likely a relief for her?
Story 1: Not what I was expecting so kudos to that. Story 3: My roommate didn’t drink for the longest time because of general disinterest. If we got together at a bar or restaurant to have drinks, he just didn’t drink and found his own good time. It’s not hard to compromise with friends, at least good friends. Story 4: Yeah no, that behavior is thievery at best, creepy at worst.
32:29 she is so right with this response, some people seem set on failing to properly comprehend what they read and making aggressive comments nevertheless based on unfounded assumptions 💀
Okay I'm just under 17 minutes in, and I see everyone's just sobbing about whatever is about to happen in Story 2 so I'm probably going to h*ll for pointing this out, but uh 16:43 they were "pennile" pals??? Eta: oh god...
I was thinking "This is friendless behavior" upon thinking about the reddit users trying to say friendship is over, and then a moment later you said something similar, and I thought that was really funny.
Story 1: Narrator, let Juliana go. It's not good for you. Story 2: Oh, this story...This is the kind of story that makes me think "God, we need to talk." Story 3: So she wants everyone to cater to her but can't compromise for her friends? Yeah, that's not a friend. A Bazillion degrees?!?! D*mn!!! Story 4: They think they are not trusted? Well, yeah... Story 5: The thing here is that your friends aren't supposed to be your therapists. Story 7: Oh? A parent that sides with the kid!!! That's somewhat rare here o.O
Would it be possible for you to bring this over to podcast form? I’d like to listen to this with earbuds at work but not stream the vid (I do have premium but it crushes battery using background RUclips).
32:48 I don’t drink either but I am perfectly fine with other people drinking as long as it isn’t detrimental to their health. If they become way too drunk or borderline/actually alcoholic then I say something. A few drinks is fine. Plus not even my business to speak on. My personal reason is because of meds and it doesn’t mix well with me. Learned early from high school during new years family parties and with parents on very special occasions. Always the smallest amounts but still I know I don’t like it. This is my personal experience and I know that. Other people have their own experiences and it works well for other people and doesn’t cause issues for them. No matter my own personal beliefs or experiences. I would NEVER be like Lauren and be going crazy about other ppl drinking
The vegan "friend", anyone else suspect a B12 deficiency? EDIT: I don't drink alcohol, for religious reasons, but I respect that everyone has free agency and the ability to make their own choices. I do have friends, and some family, that do drink. I just don't hang out when they are. Instead, we hang out other times.
Grieving over one's mortality is no excuse to tear apart a family. If the cancer is hitting her brain, then her husband needs to get her checked out just in case. But if not, then it is 100% her fault for burning bridges before death.
Yes, dying changes ones personality, but if it‘s to the detriment of everyone around you, then you still should be held accountable. And the fact that the SIL stopped treating OP‘s wife badly, after she got some push-back, but continued to treat MIL and younger SIL the same way shows, that she knew exactly what she was doing.
I honestly agree that if I was dying like this I would be a mess and be all over the place I am sorry but most people would and yes some people don't handle dying lots of people are not calm when they know that they're dying some people are not stronger than other people it happens to life honestly I do not agree with Op and yes people are going to say yours this your dad and your opinion is but when you look at it from the point of view of a dying person or just anything you would understand that yes it makes you do a radical thing sometimes you're scared to death everyone's scared to death
As a 10 year vegan, I get so angry at vegans who behave like this woman does. What you do is YOUR business and no one else's. If watching people eat meat offends you, then find other vegan friends so you don't have to see it. NO one has the right to tell ANYONE what to eat and drink. The only time I ever talk about being vegan, is when people ask about it. And even then I always circle it back to myself. It makes ME feel better, ME feel healthier etc. I apologize for all who have been barked at by these self ritcheous vegans
Wow... story 2. There was some real emotion coming through in the reading, too. May she RIP.
Story 2 just… makes me wanna spend more times with with my bffs who I consider my siblings too
Story 2 is just… I need a minute…
🫂me too bro

I needed the “bye byeee” happiness today
Story 2; ugh I'm in tears. I'm so sorry OP. What a devastating thing to have to watch your best friend go downhill so fast. 💔

I like this narrator, he always has good takes
Maybe not 100% of the time 😄 I don't think anybody does lol. But thanks for commenting! ❤️
- Narrator
@@ABadPassword way better than the other guy! Keep up the good work dude! Rooting for you becoming a VA!!
In Diana Wynne Jones's novel Howl's Moving Castle, being the eldest of three siblings is a bad omen
Best narrator also dayum that’s a crazy opening
I remember when he joined the team people really disliked him (probably because he was new and folks don’t like change) but I think he’s the one with the voice I like listening to most :D
@@pupdawn the first guy will always be the best but he’s vary god as well as
@@pupdawn Aldo disliked no absolutely hated yes

Story 2... I need a moment to collect myself 💔💔😭😭
Just had a friend pass away at 22 due to an unknown cause and medical negligence. Life is unfair
Story 2 is why I just can’t believe there is a God, because why did such a wonderful person have to live a life so horrible that death was likely a relief for her?
These stories always have the most insane titles.
Story 1: Not what I was expecting so kudos to that.
Story 3: My roommate didn’t drink for the longest time because of general disinterest. If we got together at a bar or restaurant to have drinks, he just didn’t drink and found his own good time. It’s not hard to compromise with friends, at least good friends.
Story 4: Yeah no, that behavior is thievery at best, creepy at worst.
Start of story 2: 16:11
End of story 2: 23:40
Okay so like if she didn't die on the wedding day, why does the title say she died on the wedding day?
Click bait
Probably typo. It's hard to change the title of a story on Reddit.
@LunaP1 nah its the title of the video, they're doing clickbait now it seems
it was probably a poor attempt at censoring / replacing the word "dying" because YT wouldn't like having that word in a video title
@skidd__ "My Sister is trying to ruin my wedding by making it about her illness"
32:29 she is so right with this response, some people seem set on failing to properly comprehend what they read and making aggressive comments nevertheless based on unfounded assumptions 💀
Okay I'm just under 17 minutes in, and I see everyone's just sobbing about whatever is about to happen in Story 2 so I'm probably going to h*ll for pointing this out, but uh
16:43 they were "pennile" pals???
Eta: oh god...
33:24 No one hates vegans. It's just THOSE vegans people have a problem with, but that is true for any group
I was thinking "This is friendless behavior" upon thinking about the reddit users trying to say friendship is over, and then a moment later you said something similar, and I thought that was really funny.
I'll be honest, I think the title you used for the story was a lie. He wasn't upset someone died on his big day, and noone died at all so far.
Story 1: Narrator, let Juliana go. It's not good for you.
Story 2: Oh, this story...This is the kind of story that makes me think "God, we need to talk."
Story 3: So she wants everyone to cater to her but can't compromise for her friends? Yeah, that's not a friend. A Bazillion degrees?!?! D*mn!!!
Story 4: They think they are not trusted? Well, yeah...
Story 5: The thing here is that your friends aren't supposed to be your therapists.
Story 7: Oh? A parent that sides with the kid!!! That's somewhat rare here o.O
Rest in peace Mary.
Would it be possible for you to bring this over to podcast form? I’d like to listen to this with earbuds at work but not stream the vid (I do have premium but it crushes battery using background RUclips).
I don't drink as well and I don't mind sitting with friends who drink. So long I don't have to pitch in for their drinks which I don't drink, that is.
32:48 I don’t drink either but I am perfectly fine with other people drinking as long as it isn’t detrimental to their health.

jesus story 2 just wow...im so sorry

1:01:05 OMG Kevin noooo 😂
After seeing the comments. I skipped story 1 and watched story2
what game is in BG?
story one person is the asshole because his sister is dying and he's mad
Better tell someone they can treat you like shit as much as they want if their dying then
Didnt listen or read, huh?
I want to pity that first OP but dying really does change personality like that. Him and his wife are making this woman's death about them.
Grieving over one's mortality is no excuse to tear apart a family. If the cancer is hitting her brain, then her husband needs to get her checked out just in case. But if not, then it is 100% her fault for burning bridges before death.

Op I hope your wife doesn't get cancer so you don't know how her husband feels
It’s been less than 1 minute I know your a bot
Just because she has cancer doesn’t make her any less of a see you next Tuesday.
