Discriminated Against All My Life Because Of My 'Golden Child' Sister. I Got Revenge - Reddit Family

I was discriminated against all my life because of my Golden Child sister finally I got my sweet revenge on my wedding day I faced discrimination my entire life because of my Golden Child sister and she even tried to walk down the aisle at my wedding finally I got my revenge my parents always favored my sister and it was far from subtle if she accused me of something they'd believe her and punish me but if I accused her even with undeniable proof they'd give her a lighter punishment and find a way to scold me too my

birthday cake always had to be her favorite flavor and my parents pretend they didn't know I hated it they always bought her more than me and took us where she wanted even if it was supposed to be about me my sister grew up spoiled and used me as a punching bag at first she mostly ignored me but things got worse when we were teens she ended up with no friends and her behavior deteriorated did her friends move away or ditch her because she was mean I don't know because we were never close my parents boasted

about her achievements but never mentioned any issues whereas they constantly highlighted my flaws as teasing material I only knew she had no friends because we went to the same school and I noticed she was no longer with people meanwhile I was fairly popular my sister realized this and suddenly turned me from an occasional punching bag to someone she needed to take down constantly she started accusing me and my friends of more things my parents stopped letting me hang out with anyone with excuses like they're not good people according to your sister or why are you

trying to leave us why why can't you be like your sister and enjoy family time what saved me from complete isolation was my extended family most of them lived in the same Hometown and I got along well with my cousins despite some age differences at one Gathering they invited me to something I don't remember what and I sadly replied that I wasn't allowed to go anywhere when asked why my kid self bluntly said it was because I wasn't allowed to have friends since my sister didn't have any this got back to the adults who apparently

tore my parents apart later I was scolded for lying and grounded for a month but after that they gave me some leeway so it was worth it my sister changed schools I guess the humiliation of our extended family knowing her social status was too much so she demanded to switch and my parents immediately obliged even though it cost them more since the school was further away she made friends at the new school however she never went back to mostly ignoring me having felt the power to mess with me and being angry that I told the

family she had no friends she never let me go my life remained difficult her friends would come over and Bully me which my parents called light teasing I never invited friends over because my parents were awful hosts or my sister would accuse them of stealing and my parents would believe her I did become close to my cousins though as my parents never dared to treat family that way then I got my first boyfriend I didn't want to bring him home but my parents insisted at one point we were separated and he came to find me

to tell me my sister was flirting with him she came over in skimpy clothing batting her her eyelashes and started telling him how bad I was and how good she was he was irked and ran off to find me of course my sister told my parents a different story that my boyfriend had tried to flirt with her but she naturally refused since she couldn't do that to me guess who my parents believed my boyfriend wasn't perfect but I immediately believed him for a mean reason remember I was a teen suffering from unfair treatment I was

very resentful and Moody and hated my sister as much as she hated me with that disclaimer out of the way let's talk about looks I hadn't mentioned them yet because they weren't relevant my parents were overweight and liked showing love via food giving more food buying treats Etc my sister was also overweight whereas I was not I've always been kind of skinny because punishment often included no treats or snacks obviously weight isn't what matters personality is but my sister even then was already rude and spoiled even her flirting attempts were bad because she never learned

to work for anything since she could demand and my parents would deliver added to that the fact that she didn't look like some sexy model even my self-conscious teen self didn't believe my boyfriend would try and cheat on me with her anyway my parents prohibited me from dating such a horrible boy I did try to keep going in secret but it was hard and the relationship ended I did get another boyfriend but again my sister accused him of flirting with her when he refused her advances again my parents believed her I tried pointing out how

this happened again but they decided that that I was incapable of making good choices and kept picking bad boyfriends the relationship couldn't handle the Romeo Juliet situation and fizzled out again I would eventually get called a in high school as I was fine with making out with boys and such but refused to have relationships thankfully it never got back to my sister or parents my sister did bring one boyfriend home during all this time he was paraded with pride and my parents spent every second telling me how good he was and why I couldn't be

like my sister and find myself someone like that until he stopped showing up and suddenly he was a conniving bastard that tricked my sister oh well and the unequal treatment continued at this time she had more spending money and her curfews were much better than mine she was free to go anywhere at any time while I couldn't if I pointed it out my parents would say it's because she's older but when I reached that age I still didn't have the same treatment she had and when I pointed it out they denied they ever said that

or claimed it was because I couldn't be trusted like she was using my sister's accusations against my boyfriend and friends as proof of my bad judgment time goes by and it's time for my sister to graduate she was accepted into a college not a very well-regarded one and she had no scholarship or anything again because only her achievements were told to me I don't know which colleges she even tried for so I can't say how badly she was rejected I do know her grades were bad in school though because whenever she got a B we

would celebrate I would usually get good grades but my parents refus to celebrate claiming since I always got those what was there to celebrate my parents naturally made a lot of fanfare and told her they'd pay for everything I was relieved she'd be going away not that it made my life any easier she'd always come home every other weekend and somehow stuff kept missing from my room or some other issues she'd think of to make my life miserable my curfews were still strict eventually my mom came to talk to me about my impending graduation I'm

only a year younger than my sister she told me that since they were paying for my sister's College they had no money to pay for mine so it would be better for me to start working immediately after graduation and wait until my sister finished University to see if they could afford something for me oh and if I decided to stay at home I'd have to pay for all my stuff part of the bills and rent I pointed out that I could get student loans mom said Yes except no because they were so caring towards me

and I had such bad judgment that they would decide if a college was worth my getting into debt or not I'm not sure how they'd stop me from getting loans but I didn't ask scholarships weren't mentioned they had no idea what my grades were anymore and never believed in my capabilities anyway I didn't bat an eyelid I simply said okay my mom clearly didn't expect that and kept crying maybe she hoped I'd throw a tantrum so they'd have an excuse to never pay for my college but I said nothing except that I understood their position

thank them for caring and that was that my dad later tried the same but I also refused to be emotional you see after a whole lifetime of their terrible parent ing I never had any expectations towards my education I knew they would find an excuse to not pay for mine and make my life miserable I never believed they would eventually pay if I worked and waited for my sister to graduate I had been preparing for college for a long time I could barely go out my friendships were Slim So I had a lot of time

to study and study I did because I saw College as my only chance to be free well the time came and I worked my ass off and got a scholarship not to anywhere like ivy league or anything like law or medical school but it was a good enough course in a decent college with a full scholarship knowing my sister would hate it and try to stop me via my parents I put my achievement on social media at the same time I told them even forcing myself to thank them in the post now they couldn't forbid

me from going as they'd have to explain to the family why not initially they were even a little proud and boasted about it and then I guess my sister got to them and they changed gears and even asked me if I was sure I wanted to go they let slip that my sister wasn't doing well in college and since she was smarter and had better judgment than me I'd suffer worse I obviously stuck to my guns they weren't happy but couldn't do anything College was my savior I started being happy I still contacted my parents

and visited on holidays and such but since they refused to pay for anything I could excuse not going a lot due to money during this time I avoided introducing any man to them and my sister stopped going to college I know she didn't graduate because again they'd have made a Fanfare about it she moved back home pay paying no bills or rent but it's different my parents said and started working at the same company as my mom obviously thanks to my mom pulling strings this was all presented to me as a point of Pride almost

there I promise I met my husband around this time you know those people who say if I were in that situation I'd have done something my husband is the type who actually does I'm the type who is Meek and AD doormat in any situation and then can't sleep at night wishing I had done something had thought of something witty to say Etc I'm the person who can't help but cry when I'm angry my husband is the guy who claps back immediately he loves drama and loves to resolve it he's the guy that if he doesn't

immediately reply to a slight you better start worrying because he won't forgive and forget he's just doing something worse for Revenge he's the one who wanted me to post here and wanted to post on a nuclear Revenge board too but decided what we did wasn't nuclear people were baffled that I got together with him but just because I was incapable of acting like him due to my upbringing it didn't mean I didn't like it I love that my husband does what I can and he treats people well as long as they do the same to

him when we discussed marriage we decided we didn't care much about the ceremony due to our budget as we'd rather spend on a dream trip to Europe for our honeymoon as for where to do it since his family was spread out and mine was still mostly concentrated in my hometown we decided to do it there we weren't living too far off either so we could take some long trips during the weekends to manage stuff plus there was some work flexibility so we could stay in my hometown for a bit too if needed we sent out

the engagement announcement and the save the date for a few months later at this point my parents naturally demanded to meet my man I wanted to grow a spine and refuse but was having a hard time the distance had made me think maybe my parents weren't so bad well my husband looked like I had canceled Christmas when I told him I would at least ensure they were never alone with him see he had been getting ready for this he even bought a highquality recorder he could hide in a pocket to record it all he was

stoked thinking of all the ways he could refuse my sister's advances insult her and then spread the recording of her attempts to my family so off he went alone and excited to meet them and came back later euphoric babe babe you won't believe the awful things they wanted babe we can screw them over so bad there's so many possibilities I was confused and wanted to hear the recording but he smartly told me it was better to listen to him first or else I'd misunder understand him well he went there and instead of flirting my parents

and my sister sat him down after some grumbling about not being okay with him my judgment Etc they proclaimed they were willing to pay for my wedding on one condition my sister would walk down the aisle my parents insisted that my sister would walk down the aisle at my wedding first in a wedding dress their excuse was that it wasn't okay for a younger sister to marry first so it was only fair if my sister at least had the experience of it at my venue with pictures being taken in the dress and she'd even have

a cake later my husband will now type his part hey vengeful husb husband here Hell hath no fury like a pro Revenge Instant Karma nuclear Revenge lurker when his beloved is scorned that said as much as my wife she's my wife now paints me as this quick witted dude I admit my neurons all but short circuited when those folks legit suggested that crap like some sort of great gift even Troy would rather take in the horse a second time me thinks alas after my brain rebooted I did have a whole list of insults ready to

spew out but something in my soul whispered in my ear like the devil string these idiots along so I said I needed to think see how my wife back then fiance would react and then ran out of there before I could give away my nefarious plans back to me the wife so my husband sincerely recounted how my parents wanted even my wedding to be about my sister with a grin on his face and the recording to prove it I was shocked the distance had softened how badly they treated me and I thought even they wouldn't

go so far thankfully my husband insisting on the angle of Revenge helped me not go to a bad head space we had a blast thinking up ways to screw them over from ridiculously outlandish to what we thought was feasible we then called his much more levelheaded brother when we decided on a plan it involved having two venue addresses giving them the wrong one Etc well the level-headed brother scolded us for it while he acknowledged he would never be able to convince us to avoid retaliation he at least showed us that something like that would be

hard to pull off some of our other ideas were also at risk of getting us sued so we eventually settled for the most benign plan plan act like we agreed but then hire security and don't let her in obviously if that was all it wouldn't be Pro Revenge the rest is mostly my husband's doing but he wants me to do the honors so here goes just important to mention everything he did was previously discussed with me and they were our mutual ideas he went back to my parents said he probed and thought I wouldn't be

down with it however he didn't see the issue and not wanting the family to fall apart would be down to help them do it he pointed out that I don't like conflict so if I was surprised with it I might not throw a tantrum in front of all the people on the other hand marriage is a big thing so who knew if I'd lash out thus he suggested a compromise they'd help pay for stuff this way I would feel even more pressure to not say anything as Not only would we be public with our families

there but I'd be grateful for the help they gave he said my parents looked shocked and my grown sister literally started skipping with joy like a kid so it was accepted importantly my my husband also claimed that due to some bad judgment and past boyfriends these words were all my idea and I'm so so proud of using their words against them I was distrustful and controlling and liked to check his phone and stuff to ensure he wasn't cheating on me as such it was imperative that nothing of this plan was ever put in writing for

any discussion pertaining to my sister walking down the aisle before me he go over to their house to talk and so began the months of deception where my parents and sister thought they were tricking me while my husband and I were milking them rather than paying for the wedding they lay low of course my parents wanted input in everything including some things that meant a lot to me like the songs and color palette my husband would convince them to let it go to keep me in line but since we never really cared for the ceremony

to begin with everything else was fair game or so they thought here's what we did we'd go to check the drink and menu options and then accept the lowest or second lowest priced option my husband would then secretly take my sister there to try it out and then sigh and say it's a Pity we don't want to abuse my parents Goodwill so we won't get the best options cue my sister demanding my parents pay for the best my parents would then tell me not to worry and they'd pay for the most expensive option the same

was done with the photographer and flowers my husband handed my sister a bouquet of the flowers we wanted and then sadly expressed how I wanted some other tasteless flowers cue my parents telling me they wanted us to go with said flowers and they'd pay for it when it came to the wedding dress we hit a minor snag my parents wanted me to use a hideous dress okay it wasn't outright hideous but it wasn't my style and wouldn't look good on me we had planned on saying yes and then simply not using it but my mom

sent me a message about it so there'd be proof I said okay we had to go with me refusing to text and standing my ground my husband went over there and said he'd see what he could do my sister suggested ruining my desired dress so I'd be forced to wear the other one he pretended to agree during all this time they kept Communications outside any text we made sure that happened by having me reply to my sister when she tried messaging my husband this solidified the uncontrolling and neurotic claims my husband was making so they

believed it and never risked anything in writing some people might not like the thought of their partner going around and talking badly about them to family but I'm such a doormat that the thought of being painted as this controlling and dangerous person is extremely funny to me and I egged him on to do it I guess I have a warped sense of humor oh and my sister did try to flirt with him but he acted conflicted to really sell that he was with them my husband would pretend to tell them things without my knowledge but

he never told them we hired security it was really funny my husband and I who had sincerely considered a courthouse wedding to focus costs on our honeymoon ended up having this extravagant expensive wedding and barely spent a dime we called it back to pay for emotional damages from my parents I think my husband okay he just confirmed I'm right was enjoying the whole trick more than planning our wedding I didn't think it was possible to witness a guy beaming at the thought of wasting his whole Saturday doing a car trip to discuss wedding details with

his in-laws but here we are soon the day came the plan my parents sister and husband had come up with was to wait until everyone was seated since the bride always comes out late they'd have my sister arrive at that precise time to avoid me seeing her and trying to stop it and she'd walk down the aisle by the time I heard what happened it would be too late to do anything as for my dress we saved some of the leftover fabric from my dress alterations my husband took that to my parents place my sister

sister still lives with them and showed them as proof he'd ruined the dress then said he had to go back to me as I was raging and he needed to calm me down he told them he'd see them at the wedding we made sure to keep our real security hidden initially as the guests and my parents arrived they only saw a woman with a list of names to check only after my parents had settled in did we bring out the actual security a guy who looked like a bodyguard we instructed him not to let my

sister in and promised a generous tip if he kept our instructions confidential soon the moment arrived D my parents got a text that my sister was less than 5 minutes away so my dad signaled for the ceremony to start my bridesmaids had been pre to follow his lead so they did without checking with me after they all took their places my dad stood at the entrance waiting for me during this a friend not in the wedding party texted me to get ready to avoid suspicion if my husband or bridesmaid started texting this friend my husband's

Ally was as eager to stir drama as he was and didn't mind not being a bridesmaid as soon as my dad dad took his position the bridal song began the doors opened and I entered my dad was shocked to see me he tried to look behind me but couldn't see the venue entrance from where we were so he had no idea what had happened to my sister then his phone rang I saw the caller ID and it was her he left me with a mumbled something came up gasps and confusion filled the room the friend

on the plan loudly asked what happened I lied and said tearfully he told me it wasn't supposed to be me there my husband and I I had agreed that if my dad abandoned me I should say that to make him look as bad as possible the tears weren't just acting I was genuinely hurt and trying not to cry the friend then loudly asked what did he mean by it shouldn't be you so that everyone could hear and spread it then she said I will go and check and ran off we planned this so she could

create chaos with the security and prevent my dad from returning to stop the ceremony eventually my mom also left at this point my husband's dad quickly ran over and took my arm he'd been forewarned he might need to his desperate run to me made me smile I walked down the aisle to Whispers as people discussed what had happened some left to check as well when I reached my husband all was well he comforted me joking that my sad face was so real I deserved an Oscar and reassured me he'd deal with my parents for what

they did we got married without any further issues my parents didn't come back I noticed a lot of people leaving and returning during the party but no one dared tell me what was happening someone whispered in my husband's ear and he went out he returned later with a thunderous expression but whispered to me that he needed to go hide before he broke character and started smiling it worked here's the summary from friends family the security guy and my husband that I got afterwards my sister arrived in a wedding dress the security refused to let her

in as we had agreed he told her she must be at the wrong venue because there was already a bride yes we tipped him very well as promised my Dad tried threatening him with the police claiming he'd never heard of him so he couldn't be working there the security agreed to call the police since he was hired by us and was just doing his job my dad realized it would be too late and tried to demand that he let my sister in at this point the friend came over started shouting and insulting my sister and

asking what was going on basically stalling my mom soon arrived followed by others by then the wedding plan was ruined all my parents could do now was damage control as everyone who learned about it was horrified they'd try to pull it off people started screaming and berating them the three naturally said it wasn't a secret and blamed my husband when he was called over my husband put on his best confused look and denied everything to quote him Gaslight gatekeeper girl boss LOL he denied ever agreeing to such a ridiculous plan when they insisted he had

he demanded proof and of course they couldn't provide any all the text exchanges they could show were about normal wedding decisions my sister was screaming crying and apparently sat on the floor kicking her legs like a child my dad looked like he wanted to hit my husband but security and other people held him back naturally they claimed they had no proof because my husband told them not to text my husband laughed and said wow how convenient huh then he repeated why would I ever agree to something so messed up he ripped into them about being

terrible parents and said he wasn't going to let their stupid plans and lies ruin his wedding then went back to me no one believed them the venue had cameras but but they wouldn't show me the recording as it was only for security purposes however some people filmed parts of it watching my parents and sister get torn apart by everyone who came out to see the drama was delightful after years of being accused of things and not being believed seeing them get a taste of their own medicine was one of the best wedding gifts my mother

was crying my dad kept changing from purple to White and my sister was still on the floor crying and screaming they kept insisting that my husband was in on it but people kept asking why he would agree why there was no proof Pro and why they wanted my sister to do this at my wedding they had no good answers eventually they were told to leave and had no choice but to do so my dad apparently had to drag my sister up as she refused to leave the ground again people said nothing to me all night

I guess they wanted to spare me and maybe it's because I was the bride and not just a guest for once but it did feel like everyone was making an extra effort to be nice positive and excited about everything my husband says all the expensive food and drinks they were eating certainly helped LOL we had a blast my husband kept up the forced angry face for only a short while before breaking out in smiles again after that we went to the hotel to catch some sleep before heading off on our honeymoon speaking of which my

parents did try to pay for our plane tickets but we thought that was risky as they could try to cancel them or something so we refused since then the three of them have tried to contact me I've refused calls because my husband insisted on keeping a paper trail a smart move because my sister eventually messaged me I won't repeat what she said as it was very unhinged and didn't make much sense but the important part was that she blamed me for her humiliation called my husband a two-faced snake who fooled them for months he wants

to print and hang that on our wall lol and hoped but was also certain that I'd get cheated on by him she even suggested he was cheating on me with her my husband took my phone screenshot the call logs my sister's messages and some messages from my parents demanding I pick up the phone and sent it all to our family group chat he also sent screenshots of messages to him where they called him names and threatened him but he kept up the year delusional I never agreed to anything shtick and even threatened to sue them

for defamation and harassment he wrote a message in the group chat begging my family for help as I was now being harassed by them constantly he pleaded with them to stop my parents and sister from ruining our honeymoon after they failed to ruin our wedding he ended with a request that they not share our locations to prevent my parents from sending my sister over and claiming he had somehow agreed to pretend to sleep with her in our honeymoon suite LOL my family assured him they'd handle it and since then we've had peace my husband is

a bit disappointed that my sister didn't disobey so he could call her out again while tearing her a new one we'll see if the piece lasts all in all while I would have preferred a normal loving family at my wedding at least for once in my life they not only failed to ruin something meaningful to me but I got back at them extra info do I know why they treat me like this I've been asked this question a lot so I assume you all will wonder the same I've pondered this all my life and still

don't know I tried asking when I was young but they denied any difference and scolded me for being spoiled so I stopped trying I've considered many possibilities but based on my observations I think it's this I was unplanned they took a while to have my sister so she was not only wanted but also like a miracle child after so long however given our small age difference I think they didn't expect to have another child so soon or easily and didn't use adequate protection after my sister's birth maybe they didn't realize my mom was was pregnant

until it was too late so they were saddled with an unplanned baby while still dealing with a newborn they're not well off so having the extra expense likely didn't help and they resented me but that's just my conjecture regardless I've accepted that the reason won't truly matter what they did to me was unwarranted no matter what did they really think this would work my husband and I have a theory that they never intended to do this at all we think my sister threw a tantrum over me getting married first when she barely gets dates and

they made my husband that outlandish proposition they didn't want to pay for my wedding and didn't think we'd accept or that it would even look good for them to do it by suggesting it and being refused they could look like the good guys to my sister while having an excuse not to give me a dime but then my husband accepted it and they couldn't backtrack without risking my sister turning on them thank you for watching if you haven't subscribed yet please do so and hit the notification Bell to stay updated with more shocking real life
