But life is full of complex situations that help to test ourselves and those who are around us. It also shows who these people really are and if they are ready to lend us a helping hand. Reddit user @mommyinthemud decided to share the situation her family had to go through and ask people online if she made the right choice under these circumstances.

The woman shared that she is a mother to two daughters, 30-year-old Jennifer, and 28-year-old Hayleigh. Her older daughter was engaged to her fiancé Sam, however, their wedding was called off because it turned out that Hayleigh and Sam fell in love with each other.

The mother pointed out to her daughter that what Sam did to Jennifer, he can do the same to her. Hayleigh convinced her mother that their relationship was true and that Sam didn’t want to marry her sister because Hayleigh and Sam knew that they belonged together.

Honestly, everybody sucks here. Except Jennifer. I can't even imagine NOT rejecting a man who wanted to jump from my sister to me. My relationship with my sister would be sacrosanct. The real a*****e is Hayleigh, because she would destroy her relationship with her sister over a man. Obviously, Sam is TA too. But in my mind, Hayleigh is worse.

The dad seems to have some sense. He’s not cutting off Hayleigh but he’s not giving her his blessing or walking her down the aisle. Reasonable consequences. LW seems to be far more concerned with this than Jennifer’s feelings. Jennifer is wise not to want to attend the wedding or have her parents attend as it will be a ritual of humiliation for her.

A horrible situation, however I would not say she is being an Ahole. If he was engaged and started to have feelings for someone else, it's a bad situation, but he did the right thing to call off the wedding. It's unfortunate that it was her sister, but it was clearly a mutual feeling, and not just a fling. The sister has every right to not attend the wedding and be pissed at them, and the father has every right to hate the man who dumped his daughter, but it's not right that they demand the poster cut her daughter out her life too. A few years down the line, the sister will likely have met someone new and be happy, but the relationship between the mother and the other daughter will be permanently damaged by missing her wedding
