Speaker 1 (00:00):
My spoiled stepsister through a tantrum because I'm the maid
of honor.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
No, I wouldn't be the maid of honor.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
My female twenty six older sister Female twenty eight has
made me made of honor for her wedding, and half
sister female twenty one is throwing a fit. By the way,
this comes from swearing bridesmaid on the Okay storytime separate it.
So for background, my sister Laura and I were raised
by my mom without a dad. For the first five
ish years of my life. It was just three of
(00:29):
us until my mom met my stepdad. They got married
and had our little sister, Carrie not long after. My
stepdad is an awesome guy. Before he came along, Laura,
mom and I lived in a tiny apartment with nothing
much but second hand items and each other all but
we were happy because we had a roof over her
head and food on the table. Aw My stepdad has
(00:52):
an excellent job. So once they married and had Carrie,
we moved into a nice, big house a mansion compared
to our apartment, and started getting nice gifts at Christmas
time and birthdays. This is what Carrie grew up with
and whereas we grew up with a lot of it too.
I don't think it affected us as bad because we
remember what it's like to be frugal and to not
have much.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
This reminds me of producing versus me producing. I was like,
what are you saying about all the buttons? We didn't
have a lot of buttons and we had to do things.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Had to do a scrawl manual. I remember those days.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Oh man, we had a scroll.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, the scroll.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
I appreciate you, Riley.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
My mom to this day is still very frugal and
we love to go thrifting or make our own items
like we used to. Anyways, So Laura and I are
very separate from Carrie in that regard. Carrie has always
been spoiled, but not in a throw a tantrum and
asked Daddy for a new coway. But she'll ask for
a five hundred dollars birthday cake and get it by
(01:56):
name brand things only, and if she can't have something
for whatever reason, she'll pout for three days and be moody.
That does give off the vibes of want to new ka.
Yeah that is that is daddy, I want a new Ka.
So surprise, surprise, she still lives with mom and dad
and doesn't have a job on her own, and they
seem to be fine with it. But whatever, Okay, the
(02:19):
only thing I'll give her, I mean, she should have
a job. But she's twenty one. That's not like an
abnormal age to live with your parents. That's kind of
the around the normal age to be living with your parents.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
That is true. I think when you hit thirty, sorry
thirty year olds, if you're still living with your parents,
unless you're taking care, Unless you're taking care of your parents,
that's different.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Anyways, Laura's boyfriend of six years proposed last year, and
we were all thrilled. He's a great guy and we
all love him. Back when she first got engaged, she
gave me her friend Charlotte and Carrie a box of
beautiful earrings that said will you be my bride'smaid? And
mine said made of honor.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
We were all giddy and started coming up with ideas
and discussing colors and case and all that fun stuff.
But they decided to wait a year to save and
to figure out what they wanted. Okay, well, four months ago,
Laura announced she was pregnant, and as a family, we
were all excited. All except Carrie. It remained quiet and
didn't say much about it. Laura then explained that her
(03:18):
and Alan decided they wanted to have the wedding in
two months with about thirty to forty people so they
can really celebrate before the baby. Stepdad offered them ten
k so they could have their dream wedding, but due
to the circumstances, they asked if they could use most
of that money on a house they were looking at instead,
and he agreed, which is a great investment. Oh wow,
that's I mean, that's the way to do it. That
(03:39):
is the way to do it. I'd rather spend money
on a house than I'd.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Rather spend money on a honeymoon, because I don't think
I'll ever afford to buy a house one day this market.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Well, actually, I want to live in a compact with
all my friends and family.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
So, oh, I forgot we wrote that up. Yeah, yeah,
we could three D print the house and stuff. Have
you seen those three D printing houses? Things?
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Of Yeah, we'll do that. So it's fine if we
could totally afford our gosh, So Charlotte, Laura, mom and
I have been frantically planning things and It's been a
lot of fun, except for the fact that Carrie hasn't
said much about it from the start, and whenever we
start wedding plan she either goes on her phone or
will not pay much attention. Finally, Laura had a talk
(04:22):
and asked her for more input and to participate more,
and Carrie agreed. When we were on our way to
the dollar Store to pick up some wedding decorations, Carrie
scoffed and said, dollars store decorations. That's so tacky.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
You're tacky, But I got you do things with your
eyes like you Yeah, like your eyes speak a lot
of words.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Thank you, that's true.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
The fluttering what you just did there, I don't think
you even noticed. Yeah, it's crazy what you do with
your eyes.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Yes, they're just very big. But we ignored her and
did our thing. When we asked if she would help
us make handmade in the she complained again and said
it'll look like a bunch of preschoolers made it, and
just stomped away. Finally, just recently, we were all dress
shopping and Laura told us we can pick whatever dress
(05:11):
we want as long as it's blue, because she wants
it to be simple, and we would be paying for
it ourselves, and we can all be they can all
be her something blue.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I see you guess who's about to wear white?
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Carrie. So Mom, Charlotte and I went into H and
M and found beautiful blue summer Maxi dresses, different styles.
Mom had lace, mine is a floral cotton, and Laura
thought they were perfect except Carrie, of course, and she
wanted to buy the two K bridesmaid designer gown she
found online. My mom told her that was ridiculous. Laura's
(05:45):
gown didn't even cost that much, so Carrie, of course
pouted and whined, so my mom gave in and we
all went to this fancy bridle shop. Oh my mom,
why are you letting her do this emotional manipulation and
you let her get away with it?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I dude, I just feel bad for whoever Carrie ends
up with. Yeah, because she's been taught her whole life
that she can get whatever she wants if possed. So
she better be getting some men with rich A rich person, Yeah,
I see an older man with multimillions of.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Dollars, ninety year old man with a lot of cash.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Yeah, we know all about that.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
We do.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Carrie right away found a pink blush gown that's not
blue that she had to wear, but it was one K.
Mom said a firm note. Plus, it's not even blue
like the other bridesmaids.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
My sister then said, blue is the stupidest color for
a bridesmaid dress because we don't even live near the ocean.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
What what, there's so many other things that are blue.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
You live under the sky, that's the.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Blue one legs, legs, blue ponds.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
You probably drank some water today.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Ooh, that's clear. All I can think of that is blue.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
You're looking Barry blue today too, Raley, that's true a
little bit. DAEs blueberries.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Dude, I am the coade is not here, so I
have to look like a blueberry for him.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Anyways, we all left and she had her little pout,
and Mom lectured her and told her, this is a
frugal wedding. It's in our backyard barbecue with only thirty
to forty people, and so she doesn't need a two
K designer dress of any kind.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
This is her wedding that she's in.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
She's like a bridesmaid for this wedding, and therefore it's
all about me.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
This wedding means so much to me because I'm in it.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Fast forward to a few days later and Carrie says
she found a dress to wear that she already had
in her closet. Plus it was blue, so we thought
it was terrific. But when we went over to Mom
and Dad's, Carrie shrutted out in her old prom dress
from high school, which is basically a puffy ball gown
but dazzled with jewels, and as anyone does after high school,
(07:57):
she grew out of it, so her boobs were spilling
out and it was overall not very flattering.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Oh boy.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
On top of all that, she was wearing a tiara
full of sparkling jewels that she claims she bought just
for the wedding, So now she's the princess of the wedding.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Ooh oh no.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Mom and Laura were silent, and finally I felt I
had had enough, so I snapped and told her that
she couldn't possibly be serious. Wearing a dress fancier than
the bride is one thing, having your booby's spill out
is another, but also wearing a crown on top of that,
who does she think she is?
Speaker 2 (08:34):
This is her wedding, the lord of the wedding. No,
this is the wedding that she's in. She's her wedding wedding.
Therefore it is hers exactly. Thank you, you're now getting it.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
I get it. Carrie crossed, I'm in this room. So therefore, okay,
storytime is mine.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Whoa.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Carrie crossed her arms and said, I'm the maid of honor.
Of course I'm going to wear a crown. Oh been
a little miscommunication.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
So she just assumed she just co opted it seemed.
Or was she gonna, like the day of steal the position. Yeah,
like in the office.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Switch a room. She was gonna tie o pee up
and put her in the closet and become the maid
of honor.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
I'm the maid of honor. Or if you just like
if Keon just sits in my seat and says, I'm
the producer, I am.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
I'm the producer, and I.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Can't sit in the seat and produce, then I am
no longer the producer.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
I am the riley.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Now, yeah, that's how that's how it works. It works.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
This is when we all get silent until Laura speaks
up and said, made of honor. I made Amy, made
of honor. You and Charlotte are the bridesmaids lay down
the law. Well, this trigger carry and she began screeching,
what do you mean I'm not made of honor? You
told me I was when when you gave us those presents.
(09:55):
I got earrings because I'm made of honor.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Now, I don't know if were this past year Carrie
really truly thought she was made of honor and got
the title bridesmaid mixed up, or if she was in
denial or just simply didn't pay any attention to detail,
because I've been made of honor this entire time, and
she hasn't said anything about it until then. But this
caused her to have the worst meltdown I think I've
(10:19):
ever witnessed in my life. She's about to go Chernobyl
on this. I truly thought people only acted like this
in movies or storybooks. Whenever a editor would post about
a bridezilla or wedding meltdown, I always thought this must
be exaggerated. But this has been the worst meltdown ever
(10:39):
in our family. Carrie began screaming, crying, She ripped off
her crown and stomped around until Dad came down to
see what the fuss was about. Through her blubbering, she
told Laura her wedding was all wrong. She said she
should be using that tenk for a nice wedding instead
of that ugly brick house her and Alan wanted, because
that's what the money was meant for. She also said
(11:00):
it was the stupidest idea ever that my sister would
want to get married while pregnant, because you look like
a fat swan on your wedding dress.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Oh no, pull.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Kick out or na, arrest, Oh arrest or not arrestor?
All right, arrest or.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Na.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Honeybee says, I think Carrie needs a dose of reality facts,
the old dose. She needs a double door.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
The sad thing though she needed that dose years ago.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Years ago. Yeah, late, She's missed all of her appointments,
all of her shots of reality. Again. She rambled on
to something about how blue is a dumb color because
we don't live near an ocean. What a strange, strange point.
I think. At this point, she's just pulling stuff out
of her butt. Dad tried to calm her down, and
she finally screams that if she can't be made of
(11:52):
ho her, then no one can and she won't go
to the wedding because if she doesn't go to the wedding,
it doesn't exist. Ooh, logic for you. She's like, no
one could be the maid of honor if I'm not
at the wedding, because the wedding cannot go on without me.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
So there's no wedding.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
At this point, Laura is a mess and is crying
her heart out, and I'm ready to smack that little
witch so hard that the crown stays off her head permanently.
But before I can say anything, Laura says, fine, you
can be made of honor. You win, Laura.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
No, you can't give in, Laura. No, you have to be.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Around who cares if she doesn't come.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Wait, what's a sturdy wall?
Speaker 1 (12:33):
A sturdy wall?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
You have to eat the wall of China here, the.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Great Wall of China. Don't let anybody in.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
You can't. Why no, Because if you do this, she'll
just get anything she'll ever want in life.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
It's true. If you do this, what's the place that
got over rend a lot? I don't know.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
I don't say it.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ooh. Kingdom of Heaven, the
Wall of Jerusalem came down in the twelve hundreds.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yeah, but they were playing all those trumpets.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
No no, no, no, no, that's a different one. No, twelve hundreds,
twelve hundred ad Oh, and I just watched the Kingdom
of Heaven movie. Okay, I don't know what che Anyways, guys,
you guys put in the comments, what wall falls down?
Speaker 3 (13:23):
We all followed around.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
I can only think of Poland, but there was no
wall there.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
It was just kind of a Berlin wall.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Anyways, Berlin wall. There we go, walls falling down, Humpty
dumpty on a wall. But that was a cannon.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Okayway, And just like that, Carrie stopped crying and she
gave a small smile before going up to her room.
She's playing you all and you're falling into her trap.
Mom and Dad start arguing. Dad says there's nothing you
can do to control a twenty year old behavior. That's
false And Laura, I've gone into the next room to
call Alan about potentially canceling the wedding. Girl what I'm
(14:00):
I'm so angry that I end up storming into Carrie's
room to see that she's on her laptop ordering that
stupid pink two k dress. I was so dumbfounded at
her that I couldn't even face her. I left and
didn't say a word. Downstairs, Laura is crying to her
fiance and the parents are yelling all the while Carrie
is happily in her room buying stupid crap because she
(14:20):
got her way. I don't think I've ever been this angry.
I wish Laura had more of a backbone. I would
have told Carrie did not bother coming if she was
going to act like that. I don't even know what
to do now. I'm also hurt that Laura gave the
title to her just like that, because she screamed for it.
I don't know what to say or do to anyone.
What should I do? And quick at it. We live
on a farm, so we have approximately six acres of
(14:42):
open space where we're holding the wedding.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
It's a lot of space that average okay, oh.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Just yeah, I'm like for farm, makes sense, but like
to hold the wedding, that's a lot of space to
do it.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I mean, you're not going to use the whole space.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
They're going to use that whole space.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
No, they probably have a bar, they're probably well, okay,
they must have horses that are gonna fallick around. Yeah,
they're not gonna.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Use Is this your dream wedding now, Safia, I'm frolicking.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
The cooks who are preparing the hot dogs and hamburgers
will be wearing masks. The guests are all required to
wear masks, and we have hand sanitizer bottles at every table. Sorry,
I'd forgotten to conclude that personally, I wouldn't want to
risk it too much, but I'll be wearing a mask
and hand sanitizing constantly so I don't don't have to
miss my sister's wedding and pray that everything turns up fine.
(15:30):
We also have a little tap at the side of
our house we use as a sink all the time.
That's available to guests. I forget that a lot of
people right now probably aren't taking any precautions at all,
so I wanted to mention we are, if at least
a little.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Oh, they're talking about the virus this, Yeah, this is
prime say the word Okay, you can't why because then
YouTube will flag it?
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Really?
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Yes? Yeah, why because we might be saying conspiracy theories
about it. Dude, I'm Internet sucks things you can't say,
but can you scroll up on the comments and there
is an updates we got really good Stella Hirshman twenty
four says Laura must think that since Carrie is the favorite,
(16:11):
not inviting her would cause more drama. So that's me.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
But like she's causing so much already, so it's what's
the loss? Yeah, not inviting her?
Speaker 2 (16:20):
I don't know, dude, It's there has to come a
time where someone puts their.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Foot Someone's got to put their foot down, yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Or she'll just keep getting her way and she has
for twenty disgusters. Yeah, it's disgusting.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I'm just I don't know why Laura feels obliged or
is that the right word? Yeah, to do this?
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Yeah. I just think it's silly because not only are
the parents letting Laura get away with things, but so
is Sorry letting Carrie get away with things. But so
is Laura. And it seems like Amy, just op I believe,
is the only person who is actually like seeing Carrie
for who she is.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
I agree, and Dread four says send the Sister to
the sun so she can learn what the earth really
revolves around. The comments tell us where we should send
this that.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Was a freaking good one was a bar That was
that that TikTok audio from Dance Moms. Ooh that's really bratty.
That's that's that's what just went, Jarrett.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
I love that we know where Sophia has been all breaking.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Yes, also, one hundred percent of you agreed that we
should arrest, arrest and Joe arrest.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Let's get into this update. Just wanted to post an
update on what happened this afternoon. When I made that post,
it was already three days past the carry meltdown, so
I gave it a lot of time and thought and
soaked in everyone's piece of advice on here. Alan, Laura's fiance,
had actually called me early this morning and asked if
I'd be able to go over to see Laura because
(17:51):
he's fed up with Carrie's BS and we need to
act fast, all right, I like, I was relieved to
hear I wasn't the only one fed up besides those
on Reddit. So I went over straight away. Laura was
on the couch in her pj's hair, unwashed, and it
looked like she had been crying the last few days.
The image absolutely broke me, and immediately she apologized to
(18:14):
me and said she didn't know what to do now.
Alan said he had thought the three of us should
all sit down with her and have an intervention, but
Laura shut that down right away and said she doesn't
think she can handle any more yelling. I agree that
being yelled at is the last thing Laura needs, and
it should just be me and Alan. But Laura was
nervous about that too. She didn't want Carrie to feel
like she was being bombarded. She should feel like she
(18:36):
was being bombarded.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Here we go, here we go. Do we want her
not to fill bombarded? Yeah, have Stepdaddy by her nice
little tree and put the tree in the middle of
the room. Yeah. And then everyone actually bombards her. That
scared me. I thought that was a fly. The little
hat on Sophia's mike ran away. That's what we got
to do here. We have to bombard her. Bombard her,
(18:58):
but give her She seems like retail therapy a lot,
so I don't know. If you want to help her out.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Yeah, give her a little like Amazon gift, car I
don't know, and then bombard Yeah. So finally, after a
few back and forths, Laura decided that she wanted me
alone to talk to Carrie without mom and dad and
her and s so together made a list of things
that I need to address with her so that way
things don't steer off topic, such is how it's unacceptable
(19:25):
to yell at a pregnant woman, no matter the circumstances,
how disrespectful she was to criticize anything with the wedding
and the name calling, and of course the most important
part about her crying in order to be a maid
of honor. The thing I worry about is that Carrie's
gonna be like, well, you're not the wedding. It's not
your wedding. Why are you talking to me about that.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
There's there's no one of authority. Yeah, talking to Carrie. Yeah.
If a sibling came up to me and said these things,
I'd be like, okay, whatever. Yeah, if my dad came
up to me, my mom came up to me, I
think having a mom or dad would.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Be That's the thing. I think one of the parents
or one of the wedding people should be involved. I
understand why Laura doesn't want to be yelled at, but
I think Alan should maybe and me involved.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Maybe not the dad because he's a step dad and
like it's her carry that is Carrie's dad.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
Really, so I thought it's a half sister. Yeaheah.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
She Carrie is the half sister her dad.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Laura and Op grew up together and then they had
Carrie letters.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
I think I would have, well, it's daddy's princess, but
Daddy makes you know, needs to set reality.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Daddy needs to such reality to bring the parents in.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
You have to.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
I also decided to bring up with Laura about the
fact that Charlotte and I, the other bridesmaid, were planning
to have a fun bachelorette sunder party in a few
days to help Laura celebrate. Laura's face lit up and
she seemed excited. I told her it was supposed to
be a surprise and Carrie was supposed to come, but
given the circumstances and the fact that it's at my flat,
I don't want her there anymore, and I wanted to
(20:53):
see if Laura was fine with that. She said she was,
and that she'd much rather have her other friend over
instead in place of her. That was completely fine, and
after some more talking, I made my way to Mom
and Dads to see Carrie. As soon as I walked
in my Mom asked me what I was doing there.
I told her I needed to speak to Carrie. Mom
looked around and, in a hushed voice, told me it's
(21:15):
best I leave because the last three days after things
were resolved, Carrie has been perfectly happy, and no one
in this family needs any more drama. You can't keep
tiptoeing around your twenty one year old daughter. You have
to stand up to her.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Oh Carridge, Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
I told Mom I was sorry, but things in fact
were not resolved. They were far from resolved. That's when
Carrie walked into the kitchen and asked what I was
doing that. Mom tried to brush it off, said nothing.
Amy was just coming to get something. But she's on
her way out now.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Ooh ay.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
But I told her no, Actually that's a lie. I'm
here to talk to you about what happened the other
day alone, about Kia.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Business. Hm, they're not fire it up right now.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Carrie didn't seem pleased, and Mom's face was as red
as a tomato. But Carrie and I proceeded to go
into her bedroom to talk. I firstly told her how
completely unacceptable it was for her to raise her voice
and scream at a pregnant woman because of how harmful
it was for the baby. Immediately, Carrie scoffed and said, no,
it isn't. Don't make up lies to make me feel guilty.
(22:23):
I told her what lies? She said, the baby's not
gonna be affected just because I raised my voice. It
doesn't even know what's going on. You're just making stuff up.
What the this girl? I swear? I decided it's no
use arguing with stupid, so I told her pregnant or not,
this was Laura's wedding, not hers, and all of the
name calling she did and harsh criticism of the decorations
(22:44):
was completely childish and unacceptable. I then brought up the
fact how her throwing that tantrum to get her way
was the most childish thing I've ever seen in my life,
and that if things were reversed and I made Laura
takeaway Carrie's made of honor job, she Carrie would have
lost her mind. So how was it in any ways
all right for her to do it to me? Boom
(23:07):
eat that put that in your plate? Need it?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (23:11):
In response to that, she told me, I'm acting popathetic
and then I wreak of jealousy. She then said, there's
no real problem here. You're just jealous. Laura decided she
wanted me after all, Girl, you bullied her into it.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
This schirl sucks.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
You bullied her into it.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
The worst part about this is that she's so narcissistic
and so stupid that there is zero reasoning that will
ever happen.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
That's the thing. Yeah, you can't talk to her because
she's stupid. She's an idiot. Yeah, it's she's a spoiled idiot.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Do you do we just like say everything and just
be like, Okay, she knows now, but she's not gonna change.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Then you cut her off or you go living in contact.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Yeah, at this point, there's there's gonna be drama, nonetheless,
if she does come, if she doesn't come, there's gonna drama. Nonetheless.
I would not have her go, Honestly, I don't care
about the drama. And she's like, let's have a fun
time without the brat.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
We ow.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
But that's gonna affect the stepdad and the mom.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
And they should be out too if they if they've
reason with her, you gotta be like, this is not
your wedding.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
I told her this was false. She wanted me otherwise,
she wouldn't have asked, but agreed to make Carrie made
of honor to stop the fighting. Carrie then very smugly
said there was nothing I could do about it now,
so I better get over it. That's when I told
her she was no longer welcome to the sleepover we
had planned, and that Laura also did not want her
to come. Ooh, but now she's gonna go bother Laura.
(24:37):
Until Carrie decided to apologize to both me, Laura, and
our parents for her outrageous behavior, she was no longer
welcome in my and my fiance's home. Suddenly, Mom burst
through the door I'm assuming she was listening in and
went completely ape. She told me I had no right
to ban Carrie from the sleepover and from my house,
and that the only reason I was doing it was
(24:58):
to get back at her. She told me I was
stirring up unnecessary drama and that at least Carrie didn't
mean to hurt my feelings on the other day, whereas
right now I'm doing it on purpose. This is where
Carrie begins to cry and moan about how I'm bullying
her and I'm not being fair and this is hermo
this is herm. She's not getting her way, so now
(25:19):
she's gonna pitch a fit.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Yeah, it's to stomp your feet get your way kind
of thing. And it's just it's rinse, repeat, recycled.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
It's where is this mom getting this from? I mean, okay,
the apples is far far from the tree, I think,
but this doesn't make sense in my head because the
mom grew up as a single mother for so many years.
But you think money corrupted her, she also got a
little spoiled and that's why she maybe, you know, sometimes
it goes into like this. You have this new kid,
(25:46):
and you want to provide for the new kid, and
you want everything to be perfect for them. Avery says,
Mom is willfooling enabling the victim mentality?
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Wow, very true.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Dad already did that too.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
They're both doing it.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
My mom then goes over to Carrie and starts rubbing
her back and says, I know, honey, she's being very
rude to you right now. You didn't start anything. Gag.
This mom sucks. That's when I noticed stepdad standing at
the door, and I said to him, do you not
see all this? Did she at least tell you she
bought that pink two K.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Dress, please divorce.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Dad looked awkwardly between my mom, sister, and me before saying,
I think everyone is stressed out and no one means
what they say. Sister's fight and I know by the
end of the wedding you'll all be the best of
friends again, but they were never the best of friends,
and you need to wake up. At this point, I
really really had enough. I told everyone I was leaving,
(26:42):
and Mom got up and said that discussion wasn't over.
I told her, actually, it was over, and unless Carrie
apologizes to me and Laura, I will not be speaking
to her. On my way out, I heard Carrie say
there was nothing she needed to apologize for, but I
kept walking to say that I was hurt and angry
is an understand, and with how my head was pounding,
(27:02):
I just wanted some advil and juice, so I went
to the nearest drug store. Now this part might have
been where I crossed over the line. I'm honestly not
so sure. But in my last post I didn't mention
because I didn't find it relevant that Carrie is a
boyfriend she's been going out with for approximately six months.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
Someone likes dating that whatever she's about. I'm sorry that
dude probably gets stepped on and likes it. But like.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
That just registered whatever they are about to do did
not cross on. This guy should know. Yeah, how she acts.
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
His name is Noah. He's twenty seven. He's a hardcore
Christian and overall a really cool guy. I met him
at the city's university about two years ago and we
had a lot of the same courses together and became pals.
Key and Carrie have quite a bit in common. They
both love animals. He fosters animals all the time, and
Carrie at that point was debating on studying to be
(28:00):
a vet. So at the beginning of January, Noah moved
back to our part of the city where he got
a job as a pharmacist, and that's what he and
Carrie started going out, which we were all cool with
because he's really a great parent.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
He's so much better that I feel like she's gonna
have She's gonna like Carrie cheated on him or something.
Oh that's what I feel. I think.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
No, I don't know if she'd do that. I think
she'd just be like, hey, she's being a brat right now. Yeah,
I think.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
That's what she's because of his Christian values. He's very
excited to get married and have kids a people what
he said multiple times, he hopes to be engaged by
the end of the year. Carrie is also his first relationship,
which might be another reason why he's so anxious for
the commitment. Give it, give it a second, dude.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
But that's sort of the Christian male arc.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
First relationship.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
I got to marry this person. It's gonna be great, right,
have kids. They're all gonna be named after the names
in the Bible.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
And then John Luke, Matthew.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Matthew, Mark Luke, John, and we're all gonna be happy.
It's gonna be great.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
I love that, Like this is this is a perfect relationship.
So again, like I said, he's getting walked on probably
and he's like, this is what a relationship is.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Like, yeah, that's And then she if they do get married,
she's gonna be a traad wife with all She's gonna
have millions of Stanley and.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Then he buys her everything.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Yep, she's gonna go to Chick fil A every day
except for on Sunday. And it's good. Christian's gonna be great.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
And he's like, this is this is perfect.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
I'm so happy she's gonna start a business making like
I don't know, like underwater basket weaving or something. It's
gonna it sounds a specifically, Yeah, I don't know, so
who do you know?
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Anyways, I got some ad villain juice and was surprised
to see Noah because I didn't know he worked at
this particular pharmacy. So he waved me over and saw
the advil and asked if I was sick. I told
him no, just a headache from the wedding stress. He said, oh,
Carrie never mentioned anybody's wedding stress. She said things were
going terrific. Yes, are you about to get you a
(30:09):
come up?
Speaker 2 (30:09):
And where's the tea? I want to spill some.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
I'm gonna get some tea after this good?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
You need it? I do.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I had a single year, singular one.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Oh no.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
This surprised me, but mostly pissed me off. So I
asked him if that means she never told him about
the situation a few days before. He had no clue,
so I made it brief and I told him the
highlights of her name calling, screaming, and choosing her own
dress against my sister's wishes, and how now she's the
new maid of honor. This surprised Noah, and he said
stuff like, are you sure I know Carrie? She's always
(30:43):
hated yelling. She didn't actually make that big of a scene,
did she? What I told him, Yes, it was all
very unfortunately true. Then I told him that if she
talks to him, to please recommend her to some sort
of therapist. He knows quite a few, and I told
him perhaps she might even need medicine for pipe polar
disorder for all I know. I told him I am
now out of her life unless she apologized, and if
(31:05):
I were him, I would think very carefully before making
a commitment to her anytime soon. He stood there and
didn't respond. So I left, And when I went home,
Alan and my fiance were playing video games and they
asked what happened. So I told them everything. Alan and fiance.
I think I was in the right for everything, including
warning Noah.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Okay, Pole, Pole, should we war?
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Noah?
Speaker 2 (31:27):
Nah? Yeah, warn in warn na. I I don't know
about like recommending therapy or yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
I needed to go that just because it's like not
I like, he's her boyfriend.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
I do the nice way Carrie is yelling at me
she feels his way about the wedding. Yeah, I'm just
like really stressed out. I would just mention that.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Yeah, not even like really put it on her, just
so he doesn't get defensive or anything, just be like, yeah,
she like kind of got really upset and was screaming
at us a long and you know, like I'm a
little bit worried about her. It just would really be
overly nice.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
I would still warn him. I would have been like,
what do you see in her?
Speaker 1 (32:07):
What do you know?
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Why do you like my sister so much?
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Yeah? Say Toda says, are you Sally Toads? I'm so sorry?
Are you warning him? Or are you telling him the
truth of what happened.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Later on that evening, however, I got countless texts from
Carrie and my mother, who were furious that I mention
anything to Noah just to start crap on purpose. I
did not respond to any of the messages, and instead
I blocked both of their numbers for the time being.
As for Noah, Carrie has him wrapped around her little
finger completely, so I honestly don't see him doing anything
(32:46):
drastic he sees, how she is when she's poudy, and
how she is when she's spoiled. But I think all
of that goes over his head completely. But still I
felt I needed to say something. I wish I could
say I feel better and like a new woman, but
I don't. I feel hurt and betrayed. It feels like
my throat and my chest are clogged, and I honestly
(33:06):
don't know if it'll ever clear. At the end of
the day, Laura called me and said she really wants
me as her maid of honor, but in order to
keep the peace, she's choosing Carrie.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
For now.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
I will swallow my pride and my pain and support
my favorite sister in anything she decides. And I'm going
to love my new niece and nephew to bits. Thank
you everyone for listening, and if you have any more
advice or words of wisdom, I'm all years. And there
is another update.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
My go sho. We had a good comment be Hope
Art says she's hiding herself from him and won't be
able to keep up the facade after the wedding, warn
him and walk away. Op did the right thing.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
She's definitely gonna show this like true true self in
a couple months or a year or something.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
Yeah, hashtag save Noah. That is true.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
No, it's also really frustrating. I mean it must be
incredibly frustrating as opee to once again have Laura just
concede be like, you know what, Oh it's fine, this
is what she wants. I don't want to cross drama, honey,
be eighty five. Thank you for the two pounds anyone else,
Thanks Stephen King hearing Carrie, Yeah, she's gonna have a
bunch of pigs blood dropped on her at the wedding.

She wasn't COVID, but I was.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
Like, no virus, virus.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Sorry, no, it wasn't the virus, but.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
She was telling me about it. She's like umbdrated.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Yeah. I was like, I'm so tired. When my friends
called me and he was like, hey, like, how are
you know? Was I tuk aw? I was sad?
Speaker 2 (35:13):
But you could read your new recipe book.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
No, I was like I couldn't do anything. I was
literally like I didn't even watch movies that day. Like
it was that it was that bad that I couldn't
even enjoy being sick. And you're like, you know, eating
soup and watching movies. I couldn't even do that.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
How many times did you get this year?
Speaker 1 (35:30):
You're so freaking much? Because I was. I I lost
my voice for two weeks in January, Yeah, the first
of the year. The first of the year. I completely
lost my voice for two weeks.
Speaker 2 (35:42):
Sometime in March. Sometime in March for sure, May. Whenever

I must have been sick for whenever Sam got back from.
Speaker 3 (35:51):
New York sick.

Yeah, she at least.
Speaker 2 (35:54):
Seven to eighty seven, eight times times. I've got sick

Speaker 1 (35:58):
Frustrating. It's so fra. My My thing is that Riley
drinks so much of an energy drink. Oh yeah, dude,
that has vitamin C in it that I think that
you've killed anything inside of you.
Speaker 3 (36:12):
Yeah, it's like super vitamin C.
Speaker 2 (36:14):
Yeah, all the I get Like with all the.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Other stuff, you're getting so much other side effects. But
you will never get sick again.
Speaker 2 (36:21):
I will never get sick again, missus Silver Tear. Thanks
for being a member for eight months. Love being able
to catch alive. Work has slowed down and I can
be around more again. Yay. Happy to see you all alive.
Happy New Year. And yes, Stella, it is really nice
because I ate so much dirt and ladybugs growing up
(36:44):
that I will never be sick again.
Speaker 3 (36:46):
Why did you eat lady?
Speaker 2 (36:47):
But I don't know. We were talking about all the
things about eight when I was five, and that was
one of them.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
Okay, okay, but there is an update, so let's get
into it.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Look at that poll though, someone said, don't tell the boyfriend,
who said not to tell the boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
They just want to be messy.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
You just like chaos. You just like to see people fall.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
Hey, y'all, So if you haven't seen the previous posts,
I'll link them below. First post was here on the group.
Second was on my profile because it got removed from here.
So here is what I'm thinking is the final update
on what happens with my sisters. So it was about
two weeks. I think it's all been a weird blur
since I had that talk with Carrie, and I had
(37:25):
since then blocked my mom, dad, and Carrie on everything,
just hoping things may settle all on their own. Well
it didn't exactly settle, But here's what happened. About two
weeks after everything. My fiance and I were just chilling
late one evening watching TV. It was about two am
when my fiance gets a phone call from Carrie. Oh
(37:46):
my god, she's threatening him. She's like, hello, it's not Carrie,
but I'm threatening you. Watch your back. He had never
blocked her number or mom, so at first we just
left it, not wanting to deal with whatever Carrie was
wanting to talk about at two am. But then right
after we ignored the first call, she called the second
(38:08):
time and left a voice message telling my fiance to
pick up the phone asap because there's an emergency right away.
He called back, and all we can understand from Carrie
was something was going on with Mom and she didn't
know what to do. We hurried over there and were
greeted by Carrie, who told us Mom was acting hysterical
and she didn't know what to do. When I asked
(38:28):
where Stepdad was, she said that they had gotten into
a huge row a few days prior, and he was
now row pronouncing row, a huge row a few days prior,
and he was now staying at a hotel somewhere. She
led us over to Mom's room, and on the way
there I could see the family photos that were hung
up in the hallway were either lying on the floor or.
Speaker 2 (38:48):
Smack, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
It seems that the tantrums do run in the family.
When we entered the bedroom, however, Mom was calming watching
a TV show. She looked over to me and said
something along the lines of well, my only daughter. Her
speech was incredibly slurred, so it was hard to hear,
and Carrie told me not to pay any mind to
(39:11):
what she was saying because the last hour she's been
out of it and saying off things I thought maybe
Mom was going to start shouting or something, but instead
she continued to watch TV. Is she having a mental breakdown?
Speaker 2 (39:22):
Yeah? I think so.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
Now this is a normal Tuesday night.
Speaker 1 (39:27):
I asked Carrie if Mom was wasted, and she said
she wasn't sure, although she knew she had some wine earlier,
So that's yes. Apparently Mom had been saying weird stuff
that just made no sense at all, then started screaming
and shouting about broken families being stuck in the picture frames.
So that's why there was that mess in the hall.
As I was questioning, Carrie and my fiance decided to
(39:48):
call the emergency line to get Mom an ambulance. Honestly,
I would take her to the hospital. Think so yeah,
based off this reaction, Yeah, because it seems like nobody
knows what to do.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
Dang. That would have not crossed my mind really, And
I'm usually the guy that calls on.
Speaker 1 (40:02):
If I started behaving like this, you wouldn't call the hospital.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
I just get ice cream, yeah I was.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
I would just get you some soup.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
If I start screaming and throwing pictures on the wall
and slurring speech, you should probably call the hospital.
Speaker 3 (40:16):
No, she's fine.
Speaker 1 (40:17):
But don't don't. Don't get me an ambulance. If you're
making me pay two K for an ambulance, you're a
bad friend.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
I'm probably just gonna ride me to the hospital, like mom,
If you start doing that, I'm probably just gonna leave.
What sam deal with you? But if i'm if, I'm
the only.
Speaker 1 (40:32):
One, probably the only one here.
Speaker 2 (40:35):
Well, okay, to be honest, if you were acting that
way and I had to get you a hospital, I
have to like tie your arms up so you wouldn't
hit me while I'm driving.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
While I'm driving, actually I'm pretty strong now.
Speaker 2 (40:45):
Yeah, if I if I'm driving and taking you to
the hospital, Oh yeah, what am I gonna do? I'll
call the fireman. They can deal with you. They're pretty strong.
Speaker 3 (40:53):
That'd be fun for you for me. Yeah, why because
it's the fireman.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
Because just because it's the fireman, we call the West
Hollywood Fireman. That's not what you like.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
Usually they are Okay, Well, I don't. I mean, I
don't know, have.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
You ever been to one of those shows with the
Bowles and the Fireman? I thought like go through that
all the time.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
He asked Carrie if Mom was on any medication and
apparently she was on something for anxiety and depression, which
I had no idea. I knew mom had anxiety issues,
but I never knew much else. Once fiance got off
the phone with an emergency line, Carrie went and grabbed
us to the bottles of mom's medications to bring to
the doctors while fiance tried to get a hold of
(41:36):
my stepdad. I asked Carrie if she contacted our other sister,
and she said no because she didn't want to cause
any unnecessary stress for her or for the baby. Oh nash, naw,
she gets.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
We get a slight improvement. Maybe I'm predicting that she's
gonna become a better.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
Yeah, the mom's gonna kind of have a freak out
and she's like I have to step up.
Speaker 2 (41:58):
She's like, I can't become this. Yeah for Noah, because
I don't want to know, so I don't want him
to know about this.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
It's true, you there without me noticing. Yeah, you're not sly.
It may be a Monday, but you're not sly. That
was disgusting.
Speaker 1 (42:16):
She then went on to admit that she knew I
was the right. I was right, wow the entire time
when I told her that stress could affect a pregnancy,
but just didn't want to admit it before. I decided
now wasn't the time to argue and just kept my
mouth shut. Eventually, the paramedics came, and just as they did,
Mom started screaming in hysterics again, screaming and yelling stuff
(42:37):
that I don't even quite remember because it was garbled
and didn't make sense, something about her needing to stay
to feed the baby.
Speaker 3 (42:45):
A lot of people, a lot of people in the
comments said she might be having a stress.
Speaker 1 (42:49):
That's what I was thinking. This is like the slurred speech.
Speaker 3 (42:52):
And like, this is just this is a little bit wild.
Speaker 1 (42:55):
We all went to the hospital and eventually fiance finally
got a hold of stepdad and he arrived much later.
Where was Stepdad. But the doctor figured with the amount
of stress and with her and Dad's constant fighting plused
with the mixture of booze and her medication, turns out
she had drunk quite a bit that night. It was
like she just sort of snapped and she became somewhat
confused slash disoriented. He also figures Mom, as a talk
(43:18):
hasn't been taking her medication properly. Physically, Mom was perfectly fine,
but they're keeping her in for a few days just
to keep an eye on her due to virus. I
haven't been able to visit her or see her until
she gets released, but Dad was able to go in
and verify a few things, but as far as I know,
he's not really allowed to stay with her either, and
(43:38):
was only able to see her that night she was
admitted as for the actual wedding stuff. While Carrie and
I were driving back home, she told me that Laura
had texted her a few days before and told her
that I was still going to be made of honor.
The decision was final, and she would not be answering
her or our parents' phone calls or texts about the matter. Finally,
(43:59):
Laura is standing for ourselves. We love it. Hearing this
has led to more fighting between Mom, Dad, and Carrie
and shouting, and that's when things went mostly downhill. Neither
Carrie or my parents have spoken to Laura in a
few days since I was completely taken aback, especially since
Laura never told me this herself. I tried getting more information,
(44:20):
but Carrie was pretty much silent the entire way back home.
She did have a little speech prepared about how she
might no longer even consider me her sister again, how
betrayed she was by everything, and I just let her
talk and didn't have much to say. I was too
tired to fight or do anything, and she had nothing
else to say about the wedding or Mom's breakdown, and
I haven't spoken to her since m Currently, I am
(44:44):
looking for family therapy for the very near future. I'm
not sure what's available since the virus, but I plan
on getting in touch with mom's doctor to see if
he has any suggestions. I had told Alan when had happened,
and I'm hoping he will be able to tell Laura
without her stressing out too much. I suggested to keep
it vague and to tell her Mom was completely fine.
This all started because of wedding plans, but I guess
(45:06):
we just had our problems from the start and it
escalated that. I think you had the problems from the start,
and it was just the wedding that gave them. Yes,
feel free to ask any questions and I'll do my
best answer. It's all been a bit foggy for me,
so I may have left out important details, and there
is I think a final update.
Speaker 2 (45:29):
I am predicting they have the wedding.
Speaker 1 (45:32):
Yeah, Carrie comes shows back and she says, I object, No, No, I.
Speaker 2 (45:37):
Think Carrie becomes a good person out. Carrie's a good guy.
It turns around because the mother has gone completely a wall.
She's like, I can't be like that. That's where I'm going.
And she's had a reality check. Yeah, I think she's
got that reality People were telling you she was coming.
Speaker 1 (45:50):
I think it's coming.
Speaker 3 (45:51):
It was a canond event for her maturing.
Speaker 1 (45:54):
Update three. Hey all, many have you been messaging me
for an update. I'm so sorry it's been a while.
I never log into this account, so if you haven't
seen the previous posts, I'll link them below. First post
was here on the group. Second was on my profile.
Laura had the wedding. It was before the second lockdown
and out in our family's farm with about maybe fifty
(46:16):
people that showed. Carrie wore the dress she chose because
Laura caved and then wore the tiara thing she picked out,
so she still was a little brat.
Speaker 2 (46:24):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (46:26):
Days before the wedding, Carrie made Facebook posts directed at me,
just statuses saying stuff like can't believe my own family
would be so toxic and bully me stuff like that,
so eventually I blocked her. Good. Honestly, nothing too out
there happened during the wedding. Carrie got wasted and tried
to sing and dance and make the attention fall on her,
(46:48):
of course, but nothing overly out there. Gave me the
cold shoulder big time, and if I would enter the room,
she would announce that she can't be around negative energy,
then leave, dragging her boyfriend with her. Her boyfriend proposed
her after all of that, Noah, after.
Speaker 2 (47:05):
All do okay, Noah, you're the a hole. We do
not propose at weddings unless it's I don't, but we
do not propose that other people's weddings.
Speaker 1 (47:17):
We I think that he proposed at the wedding. I
think it was just like this, well let's actually read.
Speaker 2 (47:23):
Yeah, read it, but A know what.
Speaker 1 (47:25):
My assumption was that he just like proposed. Later, her
boyfriend proposed to her and texted me asking if I
would please try to make up things with her and
help plan the wedding. I don't think he proposed at
the wedding.
Speaker 2 (47:35):
EDGE didn't. Yeah, okay, I think.
Speaker 1 (47:36):
He just proposed, But I think he's still the a
hole to himself.
Speaker 2 (47:39):
Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (47:41):
I told him I was sorry, but I still wanted
to be his friend. I just can't have her in
my life. He told me he was sorry and hopes
we one day reconcile. Haven't spoken to Carrie in months,
but Laura is doing good and they still keep in touch.
Mom My do Mom and my stepdad have been signed
and I've just been keeping my distance as well. I
(48:02):
don't have any of them on Facebook anymore, but Laura
keeps me in the loop. Anyways, Not much just has happened.
Not a very exciting update, but thanks everyone for the sport,
and we would love if you support us on YouTube,
Facebook and TikTok. Just tap her profile every weekda at
three pmpst.
Speaker 2 (48:19):
Just do it, easy money, Just tap it. Check and
see there's another update.
Speaker 1 (48:23):
Well there's an edit.
Speaker 2 (48:25):
Well maybe there's another update that happened.
Speaker 1 (48:28):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (48:28):
Yeah, because this has happened nearing the virus time, so yeah,
so maybe there's more you had some time.
Speaker 3 (48:32):
Cook, I'll check right now, Cook.
Speaker 1 (48:34):
But there is an edit on those of you saying
I shouldn't have told Noah. I think Carrie is bipolar.
You're probably right. I want to say I never meant
it in a malicious way. My good friend is a bipole,
is bipolar and recently started taking medication. I began noticing
similar outbursts and trace between the two of them, and
it was my friend who suggested Carrie might be I
(48:56):
brought it up to Noah because I wondered, since he's
in the medical feet, if he would have any knowledge
or be able to convince her to see someone. I
am in no way judging anyone who is bipolar. Also,
I in no way claim that I'm the victim or
one hundred percent innocent to this. Of course, I've had
my own arguments with Carrie beforehand and during this, so
I know she's not the bad guy bad guy here.
(49:18):
I usually try to stay out of any outburst her
or my mom has had in the past. And that
is the end of that story.
Speaker 2 (49:26):
I think we got more.
Speaker 3 (49:27):
I'm checking.
Speaker 1 (49:30):
But man, girl, se.
Speaker 2 (49:35):
Kimberly says, Carrie gets dropped off at the Amish community.
She's got to go back to square one and beat
Darwin like a pilgrim to beat that's her punishment. Yeah,
I want to know what happens to the mom, though,
and you stepdad.
Speaker 1 (49:49):
I want to know if, like the the doctors were like, hey,
she's fine or whatever, like what happened there?
Speaker 2 (49:55):
I dude, I think the stepdad he broke it off.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
I think they've been fighting a But I'm a little
bit confused because it seems like I'm seems like they've
been fighting a lot about this wedding, which implies that
there is a lack of agreement on something here. So
I'm wondering if maybe the mom is on Carrie side
and the step dad is not.
Speaker 2 (50:13):
I think that's a great point.
Speaker 1 (50:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (50:16):
On top of that, who's ponying up all the money?
You think he's two k coming? Yeah, I think he's
kind of sick about it. He's like, man, I don't
want to keep paying for all.
Speaker 1 (50:26):
This, this is ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (50:29):
She's like, no, but it's my it's my come on.
Speaker 3 (50:34):
There's no real updaten unfortunately, no real update. What op
does is like replied to some of the comments. So one, uh,
they had a baby and it was a girl, and
then OPI herself eloped with her fiance and they're having
I think a kid too. It makes sense that she
(50:55):
would alope bad, but that's that's that's pretty much what
I found. Like that she's replying to the comments like
what else happens, like, oh, thanks for the support, that's
nothing else.
Speaker 2 (51:03):
Well that's good, gets her happy, and you're.
Speaker 3 (51:06):
Still just double checking if there's anything else You're welcome.
Speaker 2 (51:13):
That's big, but.
Speaker 3 (51:14):
Let me keep looking. No, it's just op literally just
for replying to comments of like yeah, like don't don't
like be too mean, and like thanks for the support,
and like everyone appreciate y'all standing by and understanding, and like, yes,
my family is weird and sucks, but that's about it.
Speaker 2 (51:32):
This woman would make me want to pull my hair out.
I wouldn't even know what to do with the cinema.
Speaker 1 (51:36):
I'd be like, how do I even talk to you?
Speaker 2 (51:38):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (51:39):
Exhausting? Yeah, man, but that is the end of that story.
Stelle Hirshman twenty four says, yeah, bipolar and borderline personality
share symptoms, but this definitely leans towards BPD. Kimber, the
client says, put her on the organ trail. Yeah, I
do I get some distiory. Classic m honeybe eighty five
(52:01):
says mom and carry are both manipulative bees. Yeah, they
definitely taught.
Speaker 2 (52:05):
Do you think Carrie got a little bit of aid Upole,
It doesn't seem like I was hopeful.
Speaker 1 (52:09):
I thought she's realized that you can stress out pregnant
women and that's it. That is the only thing that she's.
Speaker 2 (52:17):
Really She called for her mom to be checked up
on too.
Speaker 3 (52:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (52:21):
I wish she doesn't. She's not heartless.
Speaker 3 (52:23):
I wish we had more of like the wedding.
Speaker 1 (52:25):
Yeah, this was like she got drunk at the wedding
and that's all we know.
Speaker 3 (52:28):
I just want to know what happened at the wedding. Yeah,
like she made it all about me, me, me, but
like what.
Speaker 2 (52:32):
Yeah, I want to wedding turn out.
Speaker 3 (52:34):
It seems so it seemed like the wedding turned out
what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (52:37):
Yeah, And if there's no other updates, the stepdad and
mom probably worked it out too.
Speaker 1 (52:43):
They got too up. Yeah, they would have mentioned it.
Speaker 3 (52:45):
Dang.
Speaker 1 (52:45):
I don't know how to feel about stepdad I don't know,
Like it was really hard for them to contact him
when he was when Op's mom was in the hospital suspicious.
Speaker 2 (52:54):
He seemed non confrontational. Yeah, and whenever the mom was
going cool cool, he was just left. He's like I
can't deal with this suspicious. But when you got money
like that, I guess you can do whatever you want.
You can do it. You can go get hotel, do
whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (53:07):
Man Ugly old Bat says, think Carrie will wear her
old her prom dress for her own wedding, maybe that
pink dress. Ooh's dude, she better wear that pink dress
more than once, because two K for her dress is crazy.
Speaker 2 (53:20):
Like based on the time here, I know that Carrie
has definitely got married by now, and I want to
know how much money step Dad, because she.
Speaker 1 (53:30):
Was offering ten k to Laura. I bet, I bet
Carrie was like, I want twenty k, fifty.
Speaker 2 (53:37):
I'm thinking fifty.
Speaker 3 (53:39):
I got a little bit more of details on the wedding.
At least it's just again OPI saying like, I'm okay,
I'm feeling great. Laura has always been like that, non confrontational.
But she did stand her ground like we knew, and
in the end, op was the maid of honor, even
though that allowed Carrie to wear her prom dress and tiara,
so it seems like she did get to wear that
(54:00):
at the wedding.
Speaker 1 (54:00):
I gotta wear a little pink dress.
Speaker 2 (54:02):
No, she wore her blue dress. She was gonna buy
a pink dress.
Speaker 1 (54:07):
No, she bought the pink two K dress though she
wore her prom dress. She just gotta wear a prom dress.
And then they were like, no, that doesn't fit you,
and then they were having that whole argument.
Speaker 3 (54:18):
She went and bought She wore the pink dress, like her,
like her.
Speaker 2 (54:21):
Oh, she bought the pink dress.
Speaker 1 (54:24):
But that is the end of that story and the
end of this episode.
Speaker 2 (54:28):
So if you love us, make sure to subscribe We
love you, and see her tomorrow.
My spoiled stepsister through a tantrum because I'm the maid
of honor.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
No, I wouldn't be the maid of honor.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
My female twenty six older sister Female twenty eight has
made me made of honor for her wedding, and half
sister female twenty one is throwing a fit. By the way,
this comes from swearing bridesmaid on the Okay storytime separate it.
So for background, my sister Laura and I were raised
by my mom without a dad. For the first five
ish years of my life. It was just three of
(00:29):
us until my mom met my stepdad. They got married
and had our little sister, Carrie not long after. My
stepdad is an awesome guy. Before he came along, Laura,
mom and I lived in a tiny apartment with nothing
much but second hand items and each other all but
we were happy because we had a roof over her
head and food on the table. Aw My stepdad has
(00:52):
an excellent job. So once they married and had Carrie,
we moved into a nice, big house a mansion compared
to our apartment, and started getting nice gifts at Christmas
time and birthdays. This is what Carrie grew up with
and whereas we grew up with a lot of it too.
I don't think it affected us as bad because we
remember what it's like to be frugal and to not
have much.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
This reminds me of producing versus me producing. I was like,
what are you saying about all the buttons? We didn't
have a lot of buttons and we had to do things.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Had to do a scrawl manual. I remember those days.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Oh man, we had a scroll.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, the scroll.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
I appreciate you, Riley.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
My mom to this day is still very frugal and
we love to go thrifting or make our own items
like we used to. Anyways, So Laura and I are
very separate from Carrie in that regard. Carrie has always
been spoiled, but not in a throw a tantrum and
asked Daddy for a new coway. But she'll ask for
a five hundred dollars birthday cake and get it by
(01:56):
name brand things only, and if she can't have something
for whatever reason, she'll pout for three days and be moody.
That does give off the vibes of want to new ka.
Yeah that is that is daddy, I want a new Ka.
So surprise, surprise, she still lives with mom and dad
and doesn't have a job on her own, and they
seem to be fine with it. But whatever, Okay, the
(02:19):
only thing I'll give her, I mean, she should have
a job. But she's twenty one. That's not like an
abnormal age to live with your parents. That's kind of
the around the normal age to be living with your parents.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
That is true. I think when you hit thirty, sorry
thirty year olds, if you're still living with your parents,
unless you're taking care, Unless you're taking care of your parents,
that's different.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
Anyways, Laura's boyfriend of six years proposed last year, and
we were all thrilled. He's a great guy and we
all love him. Back when she first got engaged, she
gave me her friend Charlotte and Carrie a box of
beautiful earrings that said will you be my bride'smaid? And
mine said made of honor.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Oh.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
We were all giddy and started coming up with ideas
and discussing colors and case and all that fun stuff.
But they decided to wait a year to save and
to figure out what they wanted. Okay, well, four months ago,
Laura announced she was pregnant, and as a family, we
were all excited. All except Carrie. It remained quiet and
didn't say much about it. Laura then explained that her
(03:18):
and Alan decided they wanted to have the wedding in
two months with about thirty to forty people so they
can really celebrate before the baby. Stepdad offered them ten
k so they could have their dream wedding, but due
to the circumstances, they asked if they could use most
of that money on a house they were looking at instead,
and he agreed, which is a great investment. Oh wow,
that's I mean, that's the way to do it. That
(03:39):
is the way to do it. I'd rather spend money
on a house than I'd.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
Rather spend money on a honeymoon, because I don't think
I'll ever afford to buy a house one day this market.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
That's true.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Well, actually, I want to live in a compact with
all my friends and family.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
So, oh, I forgot we wrote that up. Yeah, yeah,
we could three D print the house and stuff. Have
you seen those three D printing houses? Things?
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Of Yeah, we'll do that. So it's fine if we
could totally afford our gosh, So Charlotte, Laura, mom and
I have been frantically planning things and It's been a
lot of fun, except for the fact that Carrie hasn't
said much about it from the start, and whenever we
start wedding plan she either goes on her phone or
will not pay much attention. Finally, Laura had a talk
(04:22):
and asked her for more input and to participate more,
and Carrie agreed. When we were on our way to
the dollar Store to pick up some wedding decorations, Carrie
scoffed and said, dollars store decorations. That's so tacky.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
You're tacky, But I got you do things with your
eyes like you Yeah, like your eyes speak a lot
of words.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Thank you, that's true.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
The fluttering what you just did there, I don't think
you even noticed. Yeah, it's crazy what you do with
your eyes.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Yes, they're just very big. But we ignored her and
did our thing. When we asked if she would help
us make handmade in the she complained again and said
it'll look like a bunch of preschoolers made it, and
just stomped away. Finally, just recently, we were all dress
shopping and Laura told us we can pick whatever dress
(05:11):
we want as long as it's blue, because she wants
it to be simple, and we would be paying for
it ourselves, and we can all be they can all
be her something blue.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I see you guess who's about to wear white?
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Carrie. So Mom, Charlotte and I went into H and
M and found beautiful blue summer Maxi dresses, different styles.
Mom had lace, mine is a floral cotton, and Laura
thought they were perfect except Carrie, of course, and she
wanted to buy the two K bridesmaid designer gown she
found online. My mom told her that was ridiculous. Laura's
(05:45):
gown didn't even cost that much, so Carrie, of course
pouted and whined, so my mom gave in and we
all went to this fancy bridle shop. Oh my mom,
why are you letting her do this emotional manipulation and
you let her get away with it?
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I dude, I just feel bad for whoever Carrie ends
up with. Yeah, because she's been taught her whole life
that she can get whatever she wants if possed. So
she better be getting some men with rich A rich person, Yeah,
I see an older man with multimillions of.
Speaker 1 (06:20):
Dollars, ninety year old man with a lot of cash.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
Yeah, we know all about that.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
We do.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Carrie right away found a pink blush gown that's not
blue that she had to wear, but it was one K.
Mom said a firm note. Plus, it's not even blue
like the other bridesmaids.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Ye.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
My sister then said, blue is the stupidest color for
a bridesmaid dress because we don't even live near the ocean.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
What what, there's so many other things that are blue.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
You live under the sky, that's the.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Blue one legs, legs, blue ponds.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
You probably drank some water today.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
Ooh, that's clear. All I can think of that is blue.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
You're looking Barry blue today too, Raley, that's true a
little bit. DAEs blueberries.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Dude, I am the coade is not here, so I
have to look like a blueberry for him.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Anyways, we all left and she had her little pout,
and Mom lectured her and told her, this is a
frugal wedding. It's in our backyard barbecue with only thirty
to forty people, and so she doesn't need a two
K designer dress of any kind.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
This is her wedding that she's in.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
She's like a bridesmaid for this wedding, and therefore it's
all about me.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
This wedding means so much to me because I'm in it.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Fast forward to a few days later and Carrie says
she found a dress to wear that she already had
in her closet. Plus it was blue, so we thought
it was terrific. But when we went over to Mom
and Dad's, Carrie shrutted out in her old prom dress
from high school, which is basically a puffy ball gown
but dazzled with jewels, and as anyone does after high school,
(07:57):
she grew out of it, so her boobs were spilling
out and it was overall not very flattering.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Oh boy.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
On top of all that, she was wearing a tiara
full of sparkling jewels that she claims she bought just
for the wedding, So now she's the princess of the wedding.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Ooh oh no.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Mom and Laura were silent, and finally I felt I
had had enough, so I snapped and told her that
she couldn't possibly be serious. Wearing a dress fancier than
the bride is one thing, having your booby's spill out
is another, but also wearing a crown on top of that,
who does she think she is?
Speaker 2 (08:34):
This is her wedding, the lord of the wedding. No,
this is the wedding that she's in. She's her wedding wedding.
Therefore it is hers exactly. Thank you, you're now getting it.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
I get it. Carrie crossed, I'm in this room. So therefore, okay,
storytime is mine.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Whoa.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
Carrie crossed her arms and said, I'm the maid of honor.
Of course I'm going to wear a crown. Oh been
a little miscommunication.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
So she just assumed she just co opted it seemed.
Or was she gonna, like the day of steal the position. Yeah,
like in the office.
Speaker 1 (09:12):
Switch a room. She was gonna tie o pee up
and put her in the closet and become the maid
of honor.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
I'm the maid of honor. Or if you just like
if Keon just sits in my seat and says, I'm
the producer, I am.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
I'm the producer, and I.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Can't sit in the seat and produce, then I am
no longer the producer.
Speaker 3 (09:26):
I am the riley.
Speaker 2 (09:27):
Now, yeah, that's how that's how it works. It works.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
This is when we all get silent until Laura speaks
up and said, made of honor. I made Amy, made
of honor. You and Charlotte are the bridesmaids lay down
the law. Well, this trigger carry and she began screeching,
what do you mean I'm not made of honor? You
told me I was when when you gave us those presents.
(09:55):
I got earrings because I'm made of honor.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (09:58):
Now, I don't know if were this past year Carrie
really truly thought she was made of honor and got
the title bridesmaid mixed up, or if she was in
denial or just simply didn't pay any attention to detail,
because I've been made of honor this entire time, and
she hasn't said anything about it until then. But this
caused her to have the worst meltdown I think I've
(10:19):
ever witnessed in my life. She's about to go Chernobyl
on this. I truly thought people only acted like this
in movies or storybooks. Whenever a editor would post about
a bridezilla or wedding meltdown, I always thought this must
be exaggerated. But this has been the worst meltdown ever
(10:39):
in our family. Carrie began screaming, crying, She ripped off
her crown and stomped around until Dad came down to
see what the fuss was about. Through her blubbering, she
told Laura her wedding was all wrong. She said she
should be using that tenk for a nice wedding instead
of that ugly brick house her and Alan wanted, because
that's what the money was meant for. She also said
(11:00):
it was the stupidest idea ever that my sister would
want to get married while pregnant, because you look like
a fat swan on your wedding dress.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Oh no, pull.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
Kick out or na, arrest, Oh arrest or not arrestor?
All right, arrest or.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Na.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
Honeybee says, I think Carrie needs a dose of reality facts,
the old dose. She needs a double door.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
The sad thing though she needed that dose years ago.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Years ago. Yeah, late, She's missed all of her appointments,
all of her shots of reality. Again. She rambled on
to something about how blue is a dumb color because
we don't live near an ocean. What a strange, strange point.
I think. At this point, she's just pulling stuff out
of her butt. Dad tried to calm her down, and
she finally screams that if she can't be made of
(11:52):
ho her, then no one can and she won't go
to the wedding because if she doesn't go to the wedding,
it doesn't exist. Ooh, logic for you. She's like, no
one could be the maid of honor if I'm not
at the wedding, because the wedding cannot go on without me.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
So there's no wedding.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
At this point, Laura is a mess and is crying
her heart out, and I'm ready to smack that little
witch so hard that the crown stays off her head permanently.
But before I can say anything, Laura says, fine, you
can be made of honor. You win, Laura.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
No, you can't give in, Laura. No, you have to be.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Around who cares if she doesn't come.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Wait, what's a sturdy wall?
Speaker 1 (12:33):
A sturdy wall?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
You have to eat the wall of China here, the.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Great Wall of China. Don't let anybody in.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
You can't. Why no, Because if you do this, she'll
just get anything she'll ever want in life.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
It's true. If you do this, what's the place that
got over rend a lot? I don't know.
Speaker 3 (12:55):
I don't say it.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Ooh ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh ooh. Kingdom of Heaven, the
Wall of Jerusalem came down in the twelve hundreds.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
Yeah, but they were playing all those trumpets.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
No no, no, no, no, that's a different one. No, twelve hundreds,
twelve hundred ad Oh, and I just watched the Kingdom
of Heaven movie. Okay, I don't know what che Anyways, guys,
you guys put in the comments, what wall falls down?
Speaker 3 (13:23):
We all followed around.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
I can only think of Poland, but there was no
wall there.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
It was just kind of a Berlin wall.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Anyways, Berlin wall. There we go, walls falling down, Humpty
dumpty on a wall. But that was a cannon.
Speaker 1 (13:38):
Okayway, And just like that, Carrie stopped crying and she
gave a small smile before going up to her room.
She's playing you all and you're falling into her trap.
Mom and Dad start arguing. Dad says there's nothing you
can do to control a twenty year old behavior. That's
false And Laura, I've gone into the next room to
call Alan about potentially canceling the wedding. Girl what I'm
(14:00):
I'm so angry that I end up storming into Carrie's
room to see that she's on her laptop ordering that
stupid pink two k dress. I was so dumbfounded at
her that I couldn't even face her. I left and
didn't say a word. Downstairs, Laura is crying to her
fiance and the parents are yelling all the while Carrie
is happily in her room buying stupid crap because she
(14:20):
got her way. I don't think I've ever been this angry.
I wish Laura had more of a backbone. I would
have told Carrie did not bother coming if she was
going to act like that. I don't even know what
to do now. I'm also hurt that Laura gave the
title to her just like that, because she screamed for it.
I don't know what to say or do to anyone.
What should I do? And quick at it. We live
on a farm, so we have approximately six acres of
(14:42):
open space where we're holding the wedding.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
It's a lot of space that average okay, oh.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Just yeah, I'm like for farm, makes sense, but like
to hold the wedding, that's a lot of space to
do it.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
I mean, you're not going to use the whole space.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
They're going to use that whole space.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
No, they probably have a bar, they're probably well, okay,
they must have horses that are gonna fallick around. Yeah,
they're not gonna.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Use Is this your dream wedding now, Safia, I'm frolicking.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
The cooks who are preparing the hot dogs and hamburgers
will be wearing masks. The guests are all required to
wear masks, and we have hand sanitizer bottles at every table. Sorry,
I'd forgotten to conclude that personally, I wouldn't want to
risk it too much, but I'll be wearing a mask
and hand sanitizing constantly so I don't don't have to
miss my sister's wedding and pray that everything turns up fine.
(15:30):
We also have a little tap at the side of
our house we use as a sink all the time.
That's available to guests. I forget that a lot of
people right now probably aren't taking any precautions at all,
so I wanted to mention we are, if at least
a little.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
Oh, they're talking about the virus this, Yeah, this is
prime say the word Okay, you can't why because then
YouTube will flag it?
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Really?
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Yes? Yeah, why because we might be saying conspiracy theories
about it. Dude, I'm Internet sucks things you can't say,
but can you scroll up on the comments and there
is an updates we got really good Stella Hirshman twenty
four says Laura must think that since Carrie is the favorite,
(16:11):
not inviting her would cause more drama. So that's me.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
But like she's causing so much already, so it's what's
the loss? Yeah, not inviting her?
Speaker 2 (16:20):
I don't know, dude, It's there has to come a
time where someone puts their.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
Foot Someone's got to put their foot down, yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:28):
Or she'll just keep getting her way and she has
for twenty disgusters. Yeah, it's disgusting.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I'm just I don't know why Laura feels obliged or
is that the right word? Yeah, to do this?
Speaker 1 (16:41):
Yeah. I just think it's silly because not only are
the parents letting Laura get away with things, but so
is Sorry letting Carrie get away with things. But so
is Laura. And it seems like Amy, just op I believe,
is the only person who is actually like seeing Carrie
for who she is.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
I agree, and Dread four says send the Sister to
the sun so she can learn what the earth really
revolves around. The comments tell us where we should send
this that.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
Was a freaking good one was a bar That was
that that TikTok audio from Dance Moms. Ooh that's really bratty.
That's that's that's what just went, Jarrett.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
I love that we know where Sophia has been all breaking.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Yes, also, one hundred percent of you agreed that we
should arrest, arrest and Joe arrest.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Let's get into this update. Just wanted to post an
update on what happened this afternoon. When I made that post,
it was already three days past the carry meltdown, so
I gave it a lot of time and thought and
soaked in everyone's piece of advice on here. Alan, Laura's fiance,
had actually called me early this morning and asked if
I'd be able to go over to see Laura because
(17:51):
he's fed up with Carrie's BS and we need to
act fast, all right, I like, I was relieved to
hear I wasn't the only one fed up besides those
on Reddit. So I went over straight away. Laura was
on the couch in her pj's hair, unwashed, and it
looked like she had been crying the last few days.
The image absolutely broke me, and immediately she apologized to
(18:14):
me and said she didn't know what to do now.
Alan said he had thought the three of us should
all sit down with her and have an intervention, but
Laura shut that down right away and said she doesn't
think she can handle any more yelling. I agree that
being yelled at is the last thing Laura needs, and
it should just be me and Alan. But Laura was
nervous about that too. She didn't want Carrie to feel
like she was being bombarded. She should feel like she
(18:36):
was being bombarded.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
Here we go, here we go. Do we want her
not to fill bombarded? Yeah, have Stepdaddy by her nice
little tree and put the tree in the middle of
the room. Yeah. And then everyone actually bombards her. That
scared me. I thought that was a fly. The little
hat on Sophia's mike ran away. That's what we got
to do here. We have to bombard her. Bombard her,
(18:58):
but give her She seems like retail therapy a lot,
so I don't know. If you want to help her out.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
Yeah, give her a little like Amazon gift, car I
don't know, and then bombard Yeah. So finally, after a
few back and forths, Laura decided that she wanted me
alone to talk to Carrie without mom and dad and
her and s so together made a list of things
that I need to address with her so that way
things don't steer off topic, such is how it's unacceptable
(19:25):
to yell at a pregnant woman, no matter the circumstances,
how disrespectful she was to criticize anything with the wedding
and the name calling, and of course the most important
part about her crying in order to be a maid
of honor. The thing I worry about is that Carrie's
gonna be like, well, you're not the wedding. It's not
your wedding. Why are you talking to me about that.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
There's there's no one of authority. Yeah, talking to Carrie. Yeah.
If a sibling came up to me and said these things,
I'd be like, okay, whatever. Yeah, if my dad came
up to me, my mom came up to me, I
think having a mom or dad would.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
Be That's the thing. I think one of the parents
or one of the wedding people should be involved. I
understand why Laura doesn't want to be yelled at, but
I think Alan should maybe and me involved.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
Maybe not the dad because he's a step dad and
like it's her carry that is Carrie's dad.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
Really, so I thought it's a half sister. Yeaheah.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
She Carrie is the half sister her dad.
Speaker 2 (20:19):
Laura and Op grew up together and then they had
Carrie letters.
Speaker 3 (20:22):
I think I would have, well, it's daddy's princess, but
Daddy makes you know, needs to set reality.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Daddy needs to such reality to bring the parents in.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
You have to.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
I also decided to bring up with Laura about the
fact that Charlotte and I, the other bridesmaid, were planning
to have a fun bachelorette sunder party in a few
days to help Laura celebrate. Laura's face lit up and
she seemed excited. I told her it was supposed to
be a surprise and Carrie was supposed to come, but
given the circumstances and the fact that it's at my flat,
I don't want her there anymore, and I wanted to
(20:53):
see if Laura was fine with that. She said she was,
and that she'd much rather have her other friend over
instead in place of her. That was completely fine, and
after some more talking, I made my way to Mom
and Dads to see Carrie. As soon as I walked
in my Mom asked me what I was doing there.
I told her I needed to speak to Carrie. Mom
looked around and, in a hushed voice, told me it's
(21:15):
best I leave because the last three days after things
were resolved, Carrie has been perfectly happy, and no one
in this family needs any more drama. You can't keep
tiptoeing around your twenty one year old daughter. You have
to stand up to her.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Oh Carridge, Oh yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
I told Mom I was sorry, but things in fact
were not resolved. They were far from resolved. That's when
Carrie walked into the kitchen and asked what I was
doing that. Mom tried to brush it off, said nothing.
Amy was just coming to get something. But she's on
her way out now.
Speaker 2 (21:44):
Ooh ay.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
But I told her no, Actually that's a lie. I'm
here to talk to you about what happened the other
day alone, about Kia.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Business. Hm, they're not fire it up right now.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
Carrie didn't seem pleased, and Mom's face was as red
as a tomato. But Carrie and I proceeded to go
into her bedroom to talk. I firstly told her how
completely unacceptable it was for her to raise her voice
and scream at a pregnant woman because of how harmful
it was for the baby. Immediately, Carrie scoffed and said, no,
it isn't. Don't make up lies to make me feel guilty.
(22:23):
I told her what lies? She said, the baby's not
gonna be affected just because I raised my voice. It
doesn't even know what's going on. You're just making stuff up.
What the this girl? I swear? I decided it's no
use arguing with stupid, so I told her pregnant or not,
this was Laura's wedding, not hers, and all of the
name calling she did and harsh criticism of the decorations
(22:44):
was completely childish and unacceptable. I then brought up the
fact how her throwing that tantrum to get her way
was the most childish thing I've ever seen in my life,
and that if things were reversed and I made Laura
takeaway Carrie's made of honor job, she Carrie would have
lost her mind. So how was it in any ways
all right for her to do it to me? Boom
(23:07):
eat that put that in your plate? Need it?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (23:11):
In response to that, she told me, I'm acting popathetic
and then I wreak of jealousy. She then said, there's
no real problem here. You're just jealous. Laura decided she
wanted me after all, Girl, you bullied her into it.
Speaker 3 (23:23):
This schirl sucks.
Speaker 1 (23:24):
You bullied her into it.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
The worst part about this is that she's so narcissistic
and so stupid that there is zero reasoning that will
ever happen.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
That's the thing. Yeah, you can't talk to her because
she's stupid. She's an idiot. Yeah, it's she's a spoiled idiot.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Do you do we just like say everything and just
be like, Okay, she knows now, but she's not gonna change.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
Then you cut her off or you go living in contact.
Speaker 3 (23:52):
Yeah, at this point, there's there's gonna be drama, nonetheless,
if she does come, if she doesn't come, there's gonna drama. Nonetheless.
I would not have her go, Honestly, I don't care
about the drama. And she's like, let's have a fun
time without the brat.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
We ow.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
But that's gonna affect the stepdad and the mom.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
And they should be out too if they if they've
reason with her, you gotta be like, this is not
your wedding.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
I told her this was false. She wanted me otherwise,
she wouldn't have asked, but agreed to make Carrie made
of honor to stop the fighting. Carrie then very smugly
said there was nothing I could do about it now,
so I better get over it. That's when I told
her she was no longer welcome to the sleepover we
had planned, and that Laura also did not want her
to come. Ooh, but now she's gonna go bother Laura.
(24:37):
Until Carrie decided to apologize to both me, Laura, and
our parents for her outrageous behavior, she was no longer
welcome in my and my fiance's home. Suddenly, Mom burst
through the door I'm assuming she was listening in and
went completely ape. She told me I had no right
to ban Carrie from the sleepover and from my house,
and that the only reason I was doing it was
(24:58):
to get back at her. She told me I was
stirring up unnecessary drama and that at least Carrie didn't
mean to hurt my feelings on the other day, whereas
right now I'm doing it on purpose. This is where
Carrie begins to cry and moan about how I'm bullying
her and I'm not being fair and this is hermo
this is herm. She's not getting her way, so now
(25:19):
she's gonna pitch a fit.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
Yeah, it's to stomp your feet get your way kind
of thing. And it's just it's rinse, repeat, recycled.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
It's where is this mom getting this from? I mean, okay,
the apples is far far from the tree, I think,
but this doesn't make sense in my head because the
mom grew up as a single mother for so many years.
But you think money corrupted her, she also got a
little spoiled and that's why she maybe, you know, sometimes
it goes into like this. You have this new kid,
(25:46):
and you want to provide for the new kid, and
you want everything to be perfect for them. Avery says,
Mom is willfooling enabling the victim mentality?
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Wow, very true.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Dad already did that too.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
They're both doing it.
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:01):
My mom then goes over to Carrie and starts rubbing
her back and says, I know, honey, she's being very
rude to you right now. You didn't start anything. Gag.
This mom sucks. That's when I noticed stepdad standing at
the door, and I said to him, do you not
see all this? Did she at least tell you she
bought that pink two K.
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Dress, please divorce.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Dad looked awkwardly between my mom, sister, and me before saying,
I think everyone is stressed out and no one means
what they say. Sister's fight and I know by the
end of the wedding you'll all be the best of
friends again, but they were never the best of friends,
and you need to wake up. At this point, I
really really had enough. I told everyone I was leaving,
(26:42):
and Mom got up and said that discussion wasn't over.
I told her, actually, it was over, and unless Carrie
apologizes to me and Laura, I will not be speaking
to her. On my way out, I heard Carrie say
there was nothing she needed to apologize for, but I
kept walking to say that I was hurt and angry
is an understand, and with how my head was pounding,
(27:02):
I just wanted some advil and juice, so I went
to the nearest drug store. Now this part might have
been where I crossed over the line. I'm honestly not
so sure. But in my last post I didn't mention
because I didn't find it relevant that Carrie is a
boyfriend she's been going out with for approximately six months.
Speaker 3 (27:19):
Someone likes dating that whatever she's about. I'm sorry that
dude probably gets stepped on and likes it. But like.
Speaker 2 (27:29):
That just registered whatever they are about to do did
not cross on. This guy should know. Yeah, how she acts.
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
His name is Noah. He's twenty seven. He's a hardcore
Christian and overall a really cool guy. I met him
at the city's university about two years ago and we
had a lot of the same courses together and became pals.
Key and Carrie have quite a bit in common. They
both love animals. He fosters animals all the time, and
Carrie at that point was debating on studying to be
(28:00):
a vet. So at the beginning of January, Noah moved
back to our part of the city where he got
a job as a pharmacist, and that's what he and
Carrie started going out, which we were all cool with
because he's really a great parent.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Dude.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
He's so much better that I feel like she's gonna
have She's gonna like Carrie cheated on him or something.
Oh that's what I feel. I think.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
No, I don't know if she'd do that. I think
she'd just be like, hey, she's being a brat right now. Yeah,
I think.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
That's what she's because of his Christian values. He's very
excited to get married and have kids a people what
he said multiple times, he hopes to be engaged by
the end of the year. Carrie is also his first relationship,
which might be another reason why he's so anxious for
the commitment. Give it, give it a second, dude.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
But that's sort of the Christian male arc.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
First relationship.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
I got to marry this person. It's gonna be great, right,
have kids. They're all gonna be named after the names
in the Bible.
Speaker 3 (28:59):
And then John Luke, Matthew.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Matthew, Mark Luke, John, and we're all gonna be happy.
It's gonna be great.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
I love that, Like this is this is a perfect relationship.
So again, like I said, he's getting walked on probably
and he's like, this is what a relationship is.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Like, yeah, that's And then she if they do get married,
she's gonna be a traad wife with all She's gonna
have millions of Stanley and.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Then he buys her everything.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Yep, she's gonna go to Chick fil A every day
except for on Sunday. And it's good. Christian's gonna be great.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
And he's like, this is this is perfect.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
I'm so happy she's gonna start a business making like
I don't know, like underwater basket weaving or something. It's
gonna it sounds a specifically, Yeah, I don't know, so
who do you know?
Speaker 1 (29:45):
Anyways, I got some ad villain juice and was surprised
to see Noah because I didn't know he worked at
this particular pharmacy. So he waved me over and saw
the advil and asked if I was sick. I told
him no, just a headache from the wedding stress. He said, oh,
Carrie never mentioned anybody's wedding stress. She said things were
going terrific. Yes, are you about to get you a
(30:09):
come up?
Speaker 2 (30:09):
And where's the tea? I want to spill some.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
I'm gonna get some tea after this good?
Speaker 2 (30:14):
You need it? I do.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I had a single year, singular one.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Oh no.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
This surprised me, but mostly pissed me off. So I
asked him if that means she never told him about
the situation a few days before. He had no clue,
so I made it brief and I told him the
highlights of her name calling, screaming, and choosing her own
dress against my sister's wishes, and how now she's the
new maid of honor. This surprised Noah, and he said
stuff like, are you sure I know Carrie? She's always
(30:43):
hated yelling. She didn't actually make that big of a scene,
did she? What I told him, Yes, it was all
very unfortunately true. Then I told him that if she
talks to him, to please recommend her to some sort
of therapist. He knows quite a few, and I told
him perhaps she might even need medicine for pipe polar
disorder for all I know. I told him I am
now out of her life unless she apologized, and if
(31:05):
I were him, I would think very carefully before making
a commitment to her anytime soon. He stood there and
didn't respond. So I left, And when I went home,
Alan and my fiance were playing video games and they
asked what happened. So I told them everything. Alan and fiance.
I think I was in the right for everything, including
warning Noah.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Okay, Pole, Pole, should we war?
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Noah?
Speaker 2 (31:27):
Nah? Yeah, warn in warn na. I I don't know
about like recommending therapy or yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
I needed to go that just because it's like not
I like, he's her boyfriend.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
I do the nice way Carrie is yelling at me
she feels his way about the wedding. Yeah, I'm just
like really stressed out. I would just mention that.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Yeah, not even like really put it on her, just
so he doesn't get defensive or anything, just be like, yeah,
she like kind of got really upset and was screaming
at us a long and you know, like I'm a
little bit worried about her. It just would really be
overly nice.
Speaker 3 (32:04):
I would still warn him. I would have been like,
what do you see in her?
Speaker 1 (32:07):
What do you know?
Speaker 3 (32:10):
Why do you like my sister so much?
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Yeah? Say Toda says, are you Sally Toads? I'm so sorry?
Are you warning him? Or are you telling him the
truth of what happened.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Later on that evening, however, I got countless texts from
Carrie and my mother, who were furious that I mention
anything to Noah just to start crap on purpose. I
did not respond to any of the messages, and instead
I blocked both of their numbers for the time being.
As for Noah, Carrie has him wrapped around her little
finger completely, so I honestly don't see him doing anything
(32:46):
drastic he sees, how she is when she's poudy, and
how she is when she's spoiled. But I think all
of that goes over his head completely. But still I
felt I needed to say something. I wish I could
say I feel better and like a new woman, but
I don't. I feel hurt and betrayed. It feels like
my throat and my chest are clogged, and I honestly
(33:06):
don't know if it'll ever clear. At the end of
the day, Laura called me and said she really wants
me as her maid of honor, but in order to
keep the peace, she's choosing Carrie.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
For now.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
I will swallow my pride and my pain and support
my favorite sister in anything she decides. And I'm going
to love my new niece and nephew to bits. Thank
you everyone for listening, and if you have any more
advice or words of wisdom, I'm all years. And there
is another update.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
My go sho. We had a good comment be Hope
Art says she's hiding herself from him and won't be
able to keep up the facade after the wedding, warn
him and walk away. Op did the right thing.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
She's definitely gonna show this like true true self in
a couple months or a year or something.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
Yeah, hashtag save Noah. That is true.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
No, it's also really frustrating. I mean it must be
incredibly frustrating as opee to once again have Laura just
concede be like, you know what, Oh it's fine, this
is what she wants. I don't want to cross drama, honey,

even enjoy being sick. And you're like, you know, eating

Speaker 3 (36:46):
Why did you eat lady?
Speaker 2 (36:47):
But I don't know. We were talking about all the
things about eight when I was five, and that was
one of them.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
Okay, okay, but there is an update, so let's get
into it.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Look at that poll though, someone said, don't tell the boyfriend,
who said not to tell the boyfriend.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
They just want to be messy.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
You just like chaos. You just like to see people fall.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
Hey, y'all, So if you haven't seen the previous posts,
I'll link them below. First post was here on the group.
Second was on my profile because it got removed from here.
So here is what I'm thinking is the final update
on what happens with my sisters. So it was about
two weeks. I think it's all been a weird blur
since I had that talk with Carrie, and I had
(37:25):
since then blocked my mom, dad, and Carrie on everything,
just hoping things may settle all on their own. Well
it didn't exactly settle, But here's what happened. About two
weeks after everything. My fiance and I were just chilling
late one evening watching TV. It was about two am
when my fiance gets a phone call from Carrie. Oh
(37:46):
my god, she's threatening him. She's like, hello, it's not Carrie,
but I'm threatening you. Watch your back. He had never
blocked her number or mom, so at first we just
left it, not wanting to deal with whatever Carrie was
wanting to talk about at two am. But then right
after we ignored the first call, she called the second
(38:08):
time and left a voice message telling my fiance to
pick up the phone asap because there's an emergency right away.
He called back, and all we can understand from Carrie
was something was going on with Mom and she didn't
know what to do. We hurried over there and were
greeted by Carrie, who told us Mom was acting hysterical
and she didn't know what to do. When I asked
(38:28):
where Stepdad was, she said that they had gotten into
a huge row a few days prior, and he was
now row pronouncing row, a huge row a few days prior,
and he was now staying at a hotel somewhere. She
led us over to Mom's room, and on the way
there I could see the family photos that were hung
up in the hallway were either lying on the floor or.
Speaker 2 (38:48):
Smack, oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
It seems that the tantrums do run in the family.
When we entered the bedroom, however, Mom was calming watching
a TV show. She looked over to me and said
something along the lines of well, my only daughter. Her
speech was incredibly slurred, so it was hard to hear,
and Carrie told me not to pay any mind to
(39:11):
what she was saying because the last hour she's been
out of it and saying off things I thought maybe
Mom was going to start shouting or something, but instead
she continued to watch TV. Is she having a mental breakdown?
Speaker 2 (39:22):
Yeah? I think so.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
Now this is a normal Tuesday night.
Speaker 1 (39:27):
I asked Carrie if Mom was wasted, and she said
she wasn't sure, although she knew she had some wine earlier,
So that's yes. Apparently Mom had been saying weird stuff
that just made no sense at all, then started screaming
and shouting about broken families being stuck in the picture frames.
So that's why there was that mess in the hall.
As I was questioning, Carrie and my fiance decided to
(39:48):
call the emergency line to get Mom an ambulance. Honestly,
I would take her to the hospital. Think so yeah,
based off this reaction, Yeah, because it seems like nobody
knows what to do.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
Dang. That would have not crossed my mind really, And
I'm usually the guy that calls on.
Speaker 1 (40:02):
If I started behaving like this, you wouldn't call the hospital.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
I just get ice cream, yeah I was.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
I would just get you some soup.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
If I start screaming and throwing pictures on the wall
and slurring speech, you should probably call the hospital.
Speaker 3 (40:16):
No, she's fine.
Speaker 1 (40:17):
But don't don't. Don't get me an ambulance. If you're
making me pay two K for an ambulance, you're a
bad friend.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
I'm probably just gonna ride me to the hospital, like mom,
If you start doing that, I'm probably just gonna leave.
What sam deal with you? But if i'm if, I'm
the only.
Speaker 1 (40:32):
One, probably the only one here.
Speaker 2 (40:35):
Well, okay, to be honest, if you were acting that
way and I had to get you a hospital, I
have to like tie your arms up so you wouldn't
hit me while I'm driving.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
While I'm driving, actually I'm pretty strong now.
Speaker 2 (40:45):
Yeah, if I if I'm driving and taking you to
the hospital, Oh yeah, what am I gonna do? I'll
call the fireman. They can deal with you. They're pretty strong.
Speaker 3 (40:53):
That'd be fun for you for me. Yeah, why because
it's the fireman.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
Because just because it's the fireman, we call the West
Hollywood Fireman. That's not what you like.
Speaker 3 (41:04):
Usually they are Okay, Well, I don't. I mean, I
don't know, have.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
You ever been to one of those shows with the
Bowles and the Fireman? I thought like go through that
all the time.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
He asked Carrie if Mom was on any medication and
apparently she was on something for anxiety and depression, which
I had no idea. I knew mom had anxiety issues,
but I never knew much else. Once fiance got off
the phone with an emergency line, Carrie went and grabbed
us to the bottles of mom's medications to bring to
the doctors while fiance tried to get a hold of
(41:36):
my stepdad. I asked Carrie if she contacted our other sister,
and she said no because she didn't want to cause
any unnecessary stress for her or for the baby. Oh nash, naw,
she gets.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
We get a slight improvement. Maybe I'm predicting that she's
gonna become a better.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
Yeah, the mom's gonna kind of have a freak out
and she's like I have to step up.
Speaker 2 (41:58):
She's like, I can't become this. Yeah for Noah, because
I don't want to know, so I don't want him
to know about this.
Speaker 3 (42:04):
It's true, you there without me noticing. Yeah, you're not sly.
It may be a Monday, but you're not sly. That
was disgusting.
Speaker 1 (42:16):
She then went on to admit that she knew I
was the right. I was right, wow the entire time
when I told her that stress could affect a pregnancy,
but just didn't want to admit it before. I decided
now wasn't the time to argue and just kept my
mouth shut. Eventually, the paramedics came, and just as they did,
Mom started screaming in hysterics again, screaming and yelling stuff
(42:37):
that I don't even quite remember because it was garbled
and didn't make sense, something about her needing to stay
to feed the baby.
Speaker 3 (42:45):
A lot of people, a lot of people in the
comments said she might be having a stress.
Speaker 1 (42:49):
That's what I was thinking. This is like the slurred speech.
Speaker 3 (42:52):
And like, this is just this is a little bit wild.
Speaker 1 (42:55):
We all went to the hospital and eventually fiance finally
got a hold of stepdad and he arrived much later.
Where was Stepdad. But the doctor figured with the amount
of stress and with her and Dad's constant fighting plused
with the mixture of booze and her medication, turns out
she had drunk quite a bit that night. It was
like she just sort of snapped and she became somewhat
confused slash disoriented. He also figures Mom, as a talk
(43:18):
hasn't been taking her medication properly. Physically, Mom was perfectly fine,
but they're keeping her in for a few days just
to keep an eye on her due to virus. I
haven't been able to visit her or see her until
she gets released, but Dad was able to go in
and verify a few things, but as far as I know,
he's not really allowed to stay with her either, and
(43:38):
was only able to see her that night she was
admitted as for the actual wedding stuff. While Carrie and
I were driving back home, she told me that Laura
had texted her a few days before and told her
that I was still going to be made of honor.
The decision was final, and she would not be answering
her or our parents' phone calls or texts about the matter. Finally,
(43:59):
Laura is standing for ourselves. We love it. Hearing this
has led to more fighting between Mom, Dad, and Carrie
and shouting, and that's when things went mostly downhill. Neither
Carrie or my parents have spoken to Laura in a
few days since I was completely taken aback, especially since
Laura never told me this herself. I tried getting more information,
(44:20):
but Carrie was pretty much silent the entire way back home.
She did have a little speech prepared about how she
might no longer even consider me her sister again, how
betrayed she was by everything, and I just let her
talk and didn't have much to say. I was too
tired to fight or do anything, and she had nothing
else to say about the wedding or Mom's breakdown, and
I haven't spoken to her since m Currently, I am
(44:44):
looking for family therapy for the very near future. I'm
not sure what's available since the virus, but I plan
on getting in touch with mom's doctor to see if
he has any suggestions. I had told Alan when had happened,
and I'm hoping he will be able to tell Laura
without her stressing out too much. I suggested to keep
it vague and to tell her Mom was completely fine.
This all started because of wedding plans, but I guess
(45:06):
we just had our problems from the start and it
escalated that. I think you had the problems from the start,
and it was just the wedding that gave them. Yes,
feel free to ask any questions and I'll do my
best answer. It's all been a bit foggy for me,
so I may have left out important details, and there
is I think a final update.
Speaker 2 (45:29):
I am predicting they have the wedding.
Speaker 1 (45:32):
Yeah, Carrie comes shows back and she says, I object, No, No, I.
Speaker 2 (45:37):
Think Carrie becomes a good person out. Carrie's a good guy.
It turns around because the mother has gone completely a wall.
She's like, I can't be like that. That's where I'm going.
And she's had a reality check. Yeah, I think she's
got that reality People were telling you she was coming.
Speaker 1 (45:50):
I think it's coming.
Speaker 3 (45:51):
It was a canond event for her maturing.
Speaker 1 (45:54):
Update three. Hey all, many have you been messaging me
for an update. I'm so sorry it's been a while.
I never log into this account, so if you haven't
seen the previous posts, I'll link them below. First post
was here on the group. Second was on my profile.
Laura had the wedding. It was before the second lockdown
and out in our family's farm with about maybe fifty
(46:16):
people that showed. Carrie wore the dress she chose because
Laura caved and then wore the tiara thing she picked out,
so she still was a little brat.
Speaker 2 (46:24):
Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1 (46:26):
Days before the wedding, Carrie made Facebook posts directed at me,
just statuses saying stuff like can't believe my own family
would be so toxic and bully me stuff like that,
so eventually I blocked her. Good. Honestly, nothing too out
there happened during the wedding. Carrie got wasted and tried
to sing and dance and make the attention fall on her,
(46:48):
of course, but nothing overly out there. Gave me the
cold shoulder big time, and if I would enter the room,
she would announce that she can't be around negative energy,
then leave, dragging her boyfriend with her. Her boyfriend proposed
her after all of that, Noah, after.
Speaker 2 (47:05):
All do okay, Noah, you're the a hole. We do
not propose at weddings unless it's I don't, but we
do not propose that other people's weddings.
Speaker 1 (47:17):
We I think that he proposed at the wedding. I
think it was just like this, well let's actually read.
Speaker 2 (47:23):
Yeah, read it, but A know what.
Speaker 1 (47:25):
My assumption was that he just like proposed. Later, her
boyfriend proposed to her and texted me asking if I
would please try to make up things with her and
help plan the wedding. I don't think he proposed at
the wedding.
Speaker 2 (47:35):
EDGE didn't. Yeah, okay, I think.
Speaker 1 (47:36):
He just proposed, But I think he's still the a
hole to himself.
Speaker 2 (47:39):
Oh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (47:41):
I told him I was sorry, but I still wanted
to be his friend. I just can't have her in
my life. He told me he was sorry and hopes
we one day reconcile. Haven't spoken to Carrie in months,
but Laura is doing good and they still keep in touch.
Mom My do Mom and my stepdad have been signed
and I've just been keeping my distance as well. I
(48:02):
don't have any of them on Facebook anymore, but Laura
keeps me in the loop. Anyways, Not much just has happened.
Not a very exciting update, but thanks everyone for the sport,
and we would love if you support us on YouTube,
Facebook and TikTok. Just tap her profile every weekda at
three pmpst.
Speaker 2 (48:19):
Just do it, easy money, Just tap it. Check and
see there's another update.
Speaker 1 (48:23):
Well there's an edit.
Speaker 2 (48:25):
Well maybe there's another update that happened.
Speaker 1 (48:28):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (48:28):
Yeah, because this has happened nearing the virus time, so yeah,
so maybe there's more you had some time.
Speaker 3 (48:32):
Cook, I'll check right now, Cook.
Speaker 1 (48:34):
But there is an edit on those of you saying
I shouldn't have told Noah. I think Carrie is bipolar.
You're probably right. I want to say I never meant
it in a malicious way. My good friend is a bipole,
is bipolar and recently started taking medication. I began noticing
similar outbursts and trace between the two of them, and
it was my friend who suggested Carrie might be I
(48:56):
brought it up to Noah because I wondered, since he's
in the medical feet, if he would have any knowledge
or be able to convince her to see someone. I
am in no way judging anyone who is bipolar. Also,
I in no way claim that I'm the victim or
one hundred percent innocent to this. Of course, I've had
my own arguments with Carrie beforehand and during this, so
I know she's not the bad guy bad guy here.
(49:18):
I usually try to stay out of any outburst her
or my mom has had in the past. And that
is the end of that story.
Speaker 2 (49:26):
I think we got more.
Speaker 3 (49:27):
I'm checking.
Speaker 1 (49:30):
But man, girl, se.
Speaker 2 (49:35):
Kimberly says, Carrie gets dropped off at the Amish community.
She's got to go back to square one and beat
Darwin like a pilgrim to beat that's her punishment. Yeah,
I want to know what happens to the mom, though,
and you stepdad.
Speaker 1 (49:49):
I want to know if, like the the doctors were like, hey,
she's fine or whatever, like what happened there?
Speaker 2 (49:55):
I dude, I think the stepdad he broke it off.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
I think they've been fighting a But I'm a little
bit confused because it seems like I'm seems like they've
been fighting a lot about this wedding, which implies that
there is a lack of agreement on something here. So
I'm wondering if maybe the mom is on Carrie side
and the step dad is not.
Speaker 2 (50:13):
I think that's a great point.
Speaker 1 (50:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (50:16):
On top of that, who's ponying up all the money?
You think he's two k coming? Yeah, I think he's
kind of sick about it. He's like, man, I don't
want to keep paying for all.
Speaker 1 (50:26):
This, this is ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (50:29):
She's like, no, but it's my it's my come on.
Speaker 3 (50:34):
There's no real updaten unfortunately, no real update. What op
does is like replied to some of the comments. So one, uh,
they had a baby and it was a girl, and
then OPI herself eloped with her fiance and they're having
I think a kid too. It makes sense that she
(50:55):
would alope bad, but that's that's that's pretty much what
I found. Like that she's replying to the comments like
what else happens, like, oh, thanks for the support, that's
nothing else.
Speaker 2 (51:03):
Well that's good, gets her happy, and you're.
Speaker 3 (51:06):
Still just double checking if there's anything else You're welcome.
Speaker 2 (51:13):
That's big, but.
Speaker 3 (51:14):
Let me keep looking. No, it's just op literally just
for replying to comments of like yeah, like don't don't
like be too mean, and like thanks for the support,
and like everyone appreciate y'all standing by and understanding, and like, yes,
my family is weird and sucks, but that's about it.
Speaker 2 (51:32):
This woman would make me want to pull my hair out.
I wouldn't even know what to do with the cinema.
Speaker 1 (51:36):
I'd be like, how do I even talk to you?
Speaker 2 (51:38):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (51:39):
Exhausting? Yeah, man, but that is the end of that story.
Stelle Hirshman twenty four says, yeah, bipolar and borderline personality
share symptoms, but this definitely leans towards BPD. Kimber, the
client says, put her on the organ trail. Yeah, I
do I get some distiory. Classic m honeybe eighty five
(52:01):
says mom and carry are both manipulative bees. Yeah, they
definitely taught.
Speaker 2 (52:05):
Do you think Carrie got a little bit of aid Upole,
It doesn't seem like I was hopeful.
Speaker 1 (52:09):
I thought she's realized that you can stress out pregnant
women and that's it. That is the only thing that she's.
Speaker 2 (52:17):
Really She called for her mom to be checked up
on too.
Speaker 3 (52:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (52:21):
I wish she doesn't. She's not heartless.
Speaker 3 (52:23):
I wish we had more of like the wedding.
Speaker 1 (52:25):
Yeah, this was like she got drunk at the wedding
and that's all we know.
Speaker 3 (52:28):
I just want to know what happened at the wedding. Yeah,
like she made it all about me, me, me, but
like what.
Speaker 2 (52:32):
Yeah, I want to wedding turn out.
Speaker 3 (52:34):
It seems so it seemed like the wedding turned out
what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (52:37):
Yeah, And if there's no other updates, the stepdad and
mom probably worked it out too.
Speaker 1 (52:43):
They got too up. Yeah, they would have mentioned it.
Speaker 3 (52:45):
Dang.
Speaker 1 (52:45):
I don't know how to feel about stepdad I don't know,
Like it was really hard for them to contact him
when he was when Op's mom was in the hospital suspicious.
Speaker 2 (52:54):
He seemed non confrontational. Yeah, and whenever the mom was
going cool cool, he was just left. He's like I
can't deal with this suspicious. But when you got money
like that, I guess you can do whatever you want.
You can do it. You can go get hotel, do
whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (53:07):
Man Ugly old Bat says, think Carrie will wear her
old her prom dress for her own wedding, maybe that
pink dress. Ooh's dude, she better wear that pink dress
more than once, because two K for her dress is crazy.
Speaker 2 (53:20):
Like based on the time here, I know that Carrie
has definitely got married by now, and I want to
know how much money step Dad, because she.
Speaker 1 (53:30):
Was offering ten k to Laura. I bet, I bet
Carrie was like, I want twenty k, fifty.
Speaker 2 (53:37):
I'm thinking fifty.
Speaker 3 (53:39):
I got a little bit more of details on the wedding.
At least it's just again OPI saying like, I'm okay,
I'm feeling great. Laura has always been like that, non confrontational.
But she did stand her ground like we knew, and
in the end, op was the maid of honor, even
though that allowed Carrie to wear her prom dress and tiara,
so it seems like she did get to wear that
(54:00):
at the wedding.
Speaker 1 (54:00):
I gotta wear a little pink dress.
Speaker 2 (54:02):
No, she wore her blue dress. She was gonna buy
a pink dress.
Speaker 1 (54:07):
No, she bought the pink two K dress though she
wore her prom dress. She just gotta wear a prom dress.
And then they were like, no, that doesn't fit you,
and then they were having that whole argument.
Speaker 3 (54:18):
She went and bought She wore the pink dress, like her,
like her.
Speaker 2 (54:21):
Oh, she bought the pink dress.
Speaker 1 (54:24):
But that is the end of that story and the
end of this episode.
