His Sister Sent His Wife One Of His Old Diary Entries In Which He Admitted To Thinking His Wife Was A “Freak” And Not Wanting To Marry Her
This 26-year-old guy does not have the best relationship with his sister, who is 25.
While growing up, they were both pretty competitive kids. And it didn’t help that their parents would always compare them before opting to favor whoever kid “did better” at something.
“I don’t think they even understand what they were doing or how it (messed) us up,” he said.
Regardless, the comparisons pushed him and his sister to constantly compete over everything– from who had better friends to who got the best grades or won the most awards.
In the process, he and his sister also tried to sabotage each other, too. So, by the time they went away to college– and happened to attend the same school– their relationship only got worse.
Then, during college, his sister wound up dating a new guy that his parents did not approve of. So, after his sister got in trouble, he viewed that as an opportunity to “one up her.”
That’s why he began dating a girl who he knew his parents would fall in love with. And he was right. He and his girlfriend dated for just one year before his parents pressured them to get married.
“And although my feelings for her weren’t big in the beginning, they grew stronger over time,” he admitted.
“I can confidently say that she is the love of my life, and I would be nothing without her.”

More recently, though, he has been keeping a diary. Apparently, the practice began as more of a self-therapy option. But, he believed it worked and has continued writing in his diary every day for stress relief.
He goes through diaries pretty quickly, though, and just so happened to leave one journal behind at his parents’ house. So, it appears that his sister wound up finding it, reading it, and sharing it with his wife.
It all began one morning this week when he realized that his wife was acting pretty strange and avoiding him.
He didn’t read too much into it, though, until later that afternoon– when his wife sat him down and confronted him.
His wife revealed how she had been sent an email containing a diary entry he had written about her. Then, she showed him the email, which contained screenshots of a pretty mean paragraph.
Within the diary entry, he calls his wife weird, boring, a freak, and even “a bit of a loser.” Plus, he admitted to not wanting to marry his wife but agreeing simply because his parents had insisted.
Now, his wife had a suspicion that his sister had sent the email. But she wasn’t sure and asked him to confirm.
After that, he decided to call his parents and have them call his sister for a family meeting. And in the meantime, before the meeting, he asked around to see if anyone else had received any diary emails.
“And nobody else had gotten an email with my diary entries, which was worse,” he explained.
Anyway, on the day of the family meeting, his sister showed up with her new boyfriend. But that didn’t stop him from screaming at his sister for violating his privacy, sharing his old thoughts with his wife, and ruining their relationship. He also accused his sister of being a jealous psycho.
His sister didn’t agree with him, though, and claimed that since he lied to both his parents and his wife, they deserved to know the truth.
At that point, his sister’s new boyfriend got involved, too, and tried to break up the argument. However, that just ended in him and his sister’s boyfriend getting into a huge shouting match.
So now, his parents are furious with both him and his sister. Plus, they have even been banned from speaking about the diary incident.
“But I think I didn’t do anything wrong,” he vented.
Regardless, with everyone angry at him, he’s now been left wondering whether freaking out on his sister for sharing his diary with his wife was justified or not.
Do you think his parents are partly to blame for enabling this rivalry between him and his sister? Now that he and his sister are adults, should they also be held accountable for provoking and competing with each other? How would you feel if you were his wife and read that diary entry? Did he have a right to yell at his sister or not?
