This 24-year-old girl has 13 siblings, and she’s the baby of her family. All of her brothers and sisters are married with children of their own, except for her and her 30-year-old sister, Ursula.
There’s a tradition in her family where all of the brothers and sisters come up with $3,000 any time someone gets married, and the money also goes towards the honeymoon too.
They all have excellent jobs and are well-off financially, so this tradition hasn’t been hard for them all to keep up with.
When her mom passed away, she promised that she would stop pitching in money for their family’s wedding tradition, as it’s only her and Ursula left to get married.
Now, she doesn’t speak to Ursula, and in fact, she only talks to two of her siblings. A couple of days ago, she came across what appeared to be a wedding invitation in her pile of mail.
She opened the letter, and she was shocked to see that Ursula had asked her for $3,000 to help pay for her upcoming wedding.
She didn’t even know that Ursula got engaged in February, as, again, she does not talk to her at all. Her two siblings she does speak to filled her in and mentioned Ursula lost her job in the pandemic and had to file for bankruptcy.
Ursula is also engaged to a man who only makes $800 every month, and Ursula and her beau cannot afford to have a wedding.
She decided to text Ursula and say that while she’s sorry she’s in a bad position money-wise, she won’t be giving her anything for her upcoming wedding.
