Such a bittersweet ending. On the one hand, the sister did SO MUCH maturing and I'm always glad to see this kind of reconciliation, not forced but genuine. a genuine apology with no strings attached and the proper headspace to forgive. On the other hand, the parents have obviously not matured at the same rate as the sister. They don't even have the presence of mind to realize that THEY were the reason for the slap to their reputation. THEY attempted to deceive both daughters and if the sister hadn't done the introspection that she did this could have gotten even nastier.
I remember a similar post where OP's father tried to force her and her mother to make up, her mother had kicked her out at 19 because she chose a different career path(CS), and 5 years had passed since then. OP's father said something along the lines of "you both need to stop being childish and make up" no apology, no talking it out, he literally just thought the whole thing could be fixed by them just "burying the hatchet" OP had a meltdown and cut ties to both her father and mother and moved away somewhere.
Kindoff a bizzarely wholesome ending. Op and her sister realized that their awful parents had pitted them against each other for so long that they never had a chance to actually act like sisters. Parents are the real villains here
Cool video, My relationship of 5 years ended a month ago. The love of my life decided to leave me, I really love her so much I can’t stop thinking about her, I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail, I’m frustrated, I don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts of her, but I can’t, I don’t know why I’m saying this here, I really miss her and just can’t stop thinking about her..
its difficult to let go of someone you love, i was in a similar situation, my relationship of 12 years ended, but i couldnt just let her go i did all i could to get her back, i had to seek the help of a spiritual counselor who helped me bring her back
Yes! I'm going to blindside op with the golden child that assaulted op (because her feelings got hurt) that is trying to get a high position job via nepotism in a party where the aunt is invited. GREAT IDEA PARENTS.
Family is so irksome. You should just ignore all familial bonds and learn to enjoy solitude. Except for family members you happen to be friends 🤝 with as well.
_Spoiler_ The only outcome the parents would have accepted is OP taking the blame for the situation. The sister apologizing unconditionally completely threw off their power grab, and now they're sulking.
Yup. Trying to broker a peace between feuding siblings is noble. Doing this by surprising both siblings during a public meaningful event is beyond sh*tty. Not taking "no" for an answer just makes a terrible situation even worse.
I was going to make a similar comment. The parents were trying so hard for so long to make OP the bad guy. The sister took the wind out of their sails with the apology. Now they can't victim blame and have turned to blame shifting.
Although we may not have the opportunity to meet, I extend my best wishes to all who are reading this. May your existence be full of infinite blessings, good fortune, and pleasure.
It's not your fault it's your sister's fault because she hit her and she tried to steal her boyfriend and their parents to encourage the civil rivalry with her sister and that's not right and she should pay for her actions and go to hell for what she has done to her and if you guys can't see that then you guys are delusional and she doesn't deserve anything for tried to steal her boyfriend and she hit her and their parents to encourage the civil rivalry and you don't have to apologize for anything it's her fault not yours.
I’m so happy to hear you’re rebuilding your relationship with your sister and that your wedding was beautiful! It’s inspiring to see how you handled everything with such grace. Wishing you both all the joy and love as you move forward together. Enjoy your honeymoon!
The plot twist at the end was unexpected, but unfortunately, this cutthroat sibling rivalry is exactly the kind of thing narcissistic parents not only foster, but actively encourage, since control is the one thing narcissists thrive on. Post-updates, while I am happy OP can rebuild her relationship with her sister, I still advise caution, cause I am very certain those parents must be seething internally cause their puppeteer strings have been cut. Knowing the psyche of narcissists, they will return to try and assert control again, and judging by how long they have let their daughters get at each other's throats, I doubt anything beyond an "act of God" would change their ways. Best advice for OP: stay away from them.
I could tell as soon as the sister walked out of the bridal shower without a word that she was on the road to recovery. If she had still been contentious and bitter toward OP, she could have gotten defensive, made a scene, and painted OP as the villain for instigating. She had the perfect captive audience, and a chance to really hurt by ruining an important day if she wanted to. Even apologizing in that instance would have felt forced and insincere given the situation. There was no good outcome for the sister or OP no matter how the sister responded. Walking out was the best thing she could have done for the both of them in that moment. If I'd seen the post before the update, I would have said she was NTA, but to try to give her sister some grace for that situation in particular, as it was clear even then that the parents were instigating by choosing such an important time and place to bring potential hostility back into your life. Parents were the real villains from day 1, and I'm so glad OP and her sister figured it out before it was too late.
I think the funny thing is opigo is my sister hasn't even apologized in 6 years. But at the same time has are blocked and tries to actively avoid her. 😂 And yes I know the sister wouldn't have done it anyways but I just think it's funny
Those parents are god damn idiots for encouraging the fighting. But then deciding to take it upon themselves and invite that sister? To an event they have no word on? Truly the most idiotic parents iv read about.
Wow what an intense journey you’ve been on I can’t believe your sister finally apologized after all these years That must have been such a huge moment for you both I’m so glad to hear your wedding was beautiful and that you’re rebuilding your relationship
parents were wrong for bringing the estranged sister to that bridal shower. I get wanting your kids to love each other and make up, but that was seriously wrong place and time. And not to mention, they never held younger sister accountable for her actions. They kept really putting that blame on the big sister. They kept telling her it's six years later let it go completely ignoring the fact of the man she's about to marry is the same man that her sister was hitting on in front of everybody. This Wasn't even picking a man over your sister it was the fact that she was just rude and didn't care
Narcissists don't really make real apologies. Even if they have to, they blame other people for their actions. And think it is other people's problem to solve their issues. Though still don't contact her. She is a troubled person so is unfun to be around.
Parents: "IT'S EVERYBODY'S FAULT BUT OURS!!!"

Couldn't have said it better myself. The parents suck.
For real.
The biggest glow up in stories i have ever heard, W Sister

Amazing, how did you get a spiritual counselor, and how do i reach him?
His name is dr apala omofulma, and she is a great spiritual counselor who can bring back your ex.
Thank you for this valuable information, i just looked him up now online. impressive
Yes! I'm going to blindside op with the golden child that assaulted op (because her feelings got hurt) that is trying to get a high position job via nepotism in a party where the aunt is invited.
GREAT IDEA PARENTS.
Nepotism is illegal. It would’ve gotten them arrested
The biggest problem with families and life in general is the lack of communication.
💯 agree with you on this Matt thanks for sharing this
Family is so irksome.
You should just ignore all familial bonds and learn to enjoy solitude. Except for family members you happen to be friends 🤝 with as well.
idk, after all what the sister had done to OP, she could still forgive her. I mean if its sincere, its good but... its kinda give me mix feelings
The best ending
Ur parents are jerks for egging you both on.
I have never been first🎉

💯👍🏿
Well, we're in another "we only care about our feelings/reputation" situation again.
I know this is WILDLY inappropriate, but I burst out laughing at the cat fight. Yeah, I know something is wrong with me.
You can forgive someone but still not want them in your life.
Although we may not have the opportunity to meet, I extend my best wishes to all who are reading this. May your existence be full of infinite blessings, good fortune, and pleasure.
God bless you
The parents pitted the sisters against each other. Sick.
Wow an example of nepotism hiring actually being rescinded we need more stories like this
It's not your fault it's your sister's fault because she hit her and she tried to steal her boyfriend and their parents to encourage the civil rivalry with her sister and that's not right and she should pay for her actions and go to hell for what she has done to her and if you guys can't see that then you guys are delusional and she doesn't deserve anything for tried to steal her boyfriend and she hit her and their parents to encourage the civil rivalry and you don't have to apologize for anything it's her fault not yours.

Fake story ahe says brother's shower

If the truth makes you look bad, that's no one's fault but yours.
my emotional a$$ cried when she invited her sister aaaaa
who ever did this map is evil
When the kids are more mature than the parents 🙄
parents were wrong for bringing the estranged sister to that bridal shower. I get wanting your kids to love each other and make up, but that was seriously wrong place and time. And not to mention, they never held younger sister accountable for her actions. They kept really putting that blame on the big sister.

This Wasn't even picking a man over your sister it was the fact that she was just rude and didn't care
Aaaand? Did they bring sister along so she can have another go at taking away OP's now fiance, thus solving her no money, no job problem?
Raised by narcissist.
Aquarium Park?
If the first thing out of her mouth wasn't that long overdue apology for what she did then no she is not a changed person
Yo i am the first
No
I was forst
I got here when yall had just commented. @rayansharora1419 was the first. They had a good 20 seconds on ya'll. There we go, problem solved
We do not care
@@idk_lollol-cu5ceyou clearly do though 😂
Damn I'm early
First
Ok?
YTA
The sister is still as manipulative as ever. Did anyone seriously bought that “apology”? It’s known as “Advance By Retreat” in the Art of War.
Narcissists don't really make real apologies.
Even if they have to, they blame other people for their actions. And think it is other people's problem to solve their issues.
Though still don't contact her. She is a troubled person so is unfun to be around.
