A Woman Who Refuses To Be An Aunt To Her Children Because She Couldn’t Forgive Her Little Sister Who Slept With Her Postpartum Husband
In this life there is a wonderful concept of “family values”. In fact, when it’s invoked in a positive context, it’s absolutely fantastic. For example, a warm, brightly lit house for the holidays, happy parents with their children at the big table, joint outings and games, etc… Family values are great, very great.
But on the other hand, how much can you put up with a close relative who has been betrayed so dastardly? Now, would it be more correct to hold a grudge and cut all ties, or to do as the ancients taught us, which is to turn the left cheek if hit to the right? Today? The heroine of our story in simply chose the first…

So seven years ago, when the poster was married and expecting a baby, things got really bad. She had a miscarriage around 10 weeks pregnant and came home to find her husband sleeping with her own sister. The woman could not stand such a double betrayal, so she not only filed for her divorce on the spot, but also completely cut ties with her sister and restricted communication with her parents. Did.

Seven years later, the author remarried and was completely happy, although he severed ties with relatives.
The original poster recalls that over the ensuing years, she gradually found herself and was able to find happiness in total calmness after meeting her now-husband. The woman says that her husband is a wonderful man, and that she considers his relatives to be hers, and that her nieces and nephews are also her family.

One day the author’s sister called her and literally asked for help
Meanwhile, the OP’s sister was married to her ex-husband, had three children, and had a life of their own. . The news the OP got from them would literally make anyone believe in karma…

It turns out that the author’s sister had a miscarriage and was cheating on her husband, so she tasted her own medicine
It turned out that my sister had also had a miscarriage, and in parallel, I found out that my husband was cheating on me with someone else. A woman who lives with her parents with her three children, she asked her betrayed sister years ago to help raise her children. Additionally, her parents also hinted to the OP that her “auntie duty” was to at least see her nephew.

The author flatly refused to reconcile with her sister and children, but her parents asked her to do so too.
But the poster was actually adamant. She still harbored a grudge against her sister, and while she almost felt worse now than the OP had seven years ago, she felt no sympathy for herself at all. Relatives are given to us to help, not betray…

People in the comments greatly supported the post’s author, arguing that her relative’s motives were not actually pure
I have to say that the original poster got a huge following among the people in the comments. Additionally, some commentators believe that the OP’s relative’s motives aren’t pure in nature, and that they want to use her in some way.
According to some commenters, the real jerk here is the original poster’s sister, who got pregnant by her sister’s husband and said that marrying a man who thought it would be okay to cheat once married was a “good idea.” She simply made her own mess, according to most people in the comments.
However, relatives are actually incredibly toxic. for example, this mom’s story After first writing a lot of insulting messages to her daughter-in-law, she secretly accused her when she showed everything to her husband and publicly disowned her mother.
