She Refused To RSVP To Her Stepsister’s Graduation Party Because Her Stepsister Was The School Bully
When this 18-year-old woman was just 2-years-old, her parents got divorced. Then, after the separation, her mom wound up marrying the father of her school bully.
To be clear, her stepsister never explicitly bullied her. But, her friends did get bullied by her stepsister.
That’s why she decided that she was never going to give her stepsister a chance or really view her as family.
“She is a [bad] person, and my mom chose her over me ultimately,” she recalled.
After that happened, she wound up urging her dad to seek full custody when she was 14-years-old. And since she was a teen at the time, the judge actually weighed her own opinion.
So, her dad was awarded full custody, and she was ecstatic– even though her mom was reportedly heartbroken.
Honestly, though, she was transparent with her mom and claimed they would never have a relationship if her mom had her stepsister.
“And that one day, her stepdaughter was going to be truly alone and unwanted, and she would deserve it for how she treated others,” she told her mom.
After that, she ultimately moved in with her dad– who even let her change schools for the following school year.

Then, much like she anticipated, her stepsister’s life did unravel before her eyes. All of a sudden, the few friends her stepsister once had left her, and she wound up with no one.
In fact, her stepsister was never invited to one party during high school. Plus, everyone at her old school even refused to sign her stepsister’s yearbook.
“My stepsister has still tried to bully kids, but now, she’s got so many people who hate her that it doesn’t work,” she explained.
It appears that’s why her mom decided to invite her to her stepsister’s graduation party– because not many other kids will be in attendance.
But, she had not seen her mom in four years or spoken to her mom in three years. That’s why she opted not to even reply to the invitation– since she has no interest in having a relationship with her mother.
After she received the invite, though, she got a call from an unknown number and wound up answering it– not realizing it was her mom.
On the phone, her mom ultimately pointed out how she had not responded to the graduation party invitation despite the party being about a month away.
She did not entertain the idea of attending, though, and straight-up told her mom that it was clear her response was no due to the lack of an RSVP. She also told her mom to just leave her alone.
But her mom didn’t take the hint and decided to detail how no one else was going to show up for her stepsister. So, her mom claimed she needed to leave the past behind her and show up.
After all, her mom admitted to believing that they were all still family, and showing up would be her chance to rekindle a sibling relationship.
Honestly, though, she claimed there was never going to be a sibling relationship.
“I told her that girl is nothing to me but a girl I would rather forget and that she made her choices and to stop,” she revealed.
Her mom just kept trying to push her to RSVP, though, and she kept having to reiterate that her lack of a response to the invitation was enough of an answer– and her mom needed to accept that.
Nonetheless, her mom told her that since she was 18-years-old now, she needed to learn how to be more polite and RSVP. Her mom also told her to grow up.
After that, though, she honestly was done with the conversation and wound up hanging up the phone. Still, ever since their argument, she has started to get some random comments on her Instagram account– presumably from her mom’s fake accounts– accusing her of being mean.
So now, she has been left wondering whether not RSVP’ing to her stepsister’s graduation party actually made her a jerk or not.
Do you think not responding to an RSVP is enough of an answer in this situation? Did she have a right not to want to attend her stepsister’s graduation party? What would you have done?
