She Lied About Being Pregnant To Cover For Her Sister And She’s Telling The Internet She Now Feels Bad About It
A 29-year-old woman has two younger sisters; 22-year-old Amie and 27-year-old Julie. Their parents raised them in a super religious and strict way, and their mom and dad always insisted they couldn’t sleep with anyone before getting married or drink alcohol until they were of age.
She hasn’t stuck to this strict, straight, and narrow path her parents put her on, and neither has Amie, however, Julie has, and she tends to act like she’s better than they are because of this.
“Amie is single and living with me and my husband of 3 years, and has been for a while,” she explained.
“This Thanksgiving, we had the family over at my place and when my sister asked if she can go to the bathroom she comes out after a few seconds with a pregnancy test in hand asking who’s is it?”
“I was confused as it wasn’t mine but then I saw Amie getting nervous so I stood up and told everyone it was mine.”
Her husband just looked at her like what on earth was going on, since they both don’t want children, but he just went with it.
She later filled him in on everything and that she was covering for Amie. Also after this incident, she was able to speak to Amie privately that night and questioned her about the pregnancy test.
Amie told her that she began gaining weight and vomiting frequently, so she thought to take the test.
She had no idea she forgot to remove it from the bathroom counter, and that’s how Julie came across it.

As the evening continued, the whole family couldn’t help but offer up their congratulations to her for being pregnant, and then wanted to know if she and her husband were crossing their fingers for a girl or boy.
She knew she had to fess up, especially after she was able to take Amie aside and talk to her about it.
So, she organized a family Zoom call and told everyone the truth there, on video. She said she was not pregnant, but Amie was.
She was shocked that her dad tried to support Amie, meanwhile, her mom and Julie started tearing her and Amie apart.
They called her and Amie bad names, before accusing her of “getting their hopes up.” When Amie said she would be terminating her pregnancy, they laced into her for that too.
She tried to stick up for Amie, asking Julie and her mom what Amie should plan on doing if they won’t let her keep her baby, yet won’t let her terminate her pregnancy.
They hung up after that comment, and she is still waiting on an answer from the two of them.
It turns out, Amie most likely is going to go through with having her baby, she only started talking about an alternative option to rile up mom and Julie.
She’s left wondering though if she should not have said what she did on the Zoom call, and she’s feeling pretty bad about it.
Here’s what the internet had to say.
“…You were awesome to think so quickly on your feet. I’m not sure I would have been that fast. And good for you for being so supportive. You are a wonderful sister.”
“You are an amazing sister to do something like this! Shoutout to your husband for also being so supportive of this decision. I’m sorry to hear your mom and sister acted so horribly. You handled this situation perfectly.”
“…I would be the petty one that lets Julie know she can no longer use my restroom anymore when she comes over since she can’t keep her mouth shut.”
“Pregnancies fail all the time, that should have been close to your storytelling.”
“I would have just lied and said the test was faulty and gave a fake positive, and a doctor had confirmed you were not pregnant.”
“You were already lying and it does kind of seem like Amie confessed mostly for your sake.”
“You are a good sister with a good heart. You also immediately talked to your sister and cleared things up with your family.”
“It is your mother and other sister who caused this mess because you and Aime were acting from fear of their reaction…and they did not rise above your low expectations.”
“…Maybe time to go LC with mom and sis until they can learn to live and let live.”
