Have you ever had a partner or spouse be jealous of how close you are to your sibling?

While it may not happen often, it does happen and can cause a lot of tension.

One man is unsure how to please his wife, who is upset because his brother-sister dance at their wedding seemed a little too affectionate.

He’s 28 and recently married his 26-year-old wife in an amazing wedding a few months ago.

After their celebration, they went on an exciting honeymoon, and he thought the overall experience went as they had hoped.

However, a few days ago, his wife approached him and confronted him about something that had happened during their wedding reception.

She told him she thought the sibling dance he shared with his sister was too affectionate and strange.

“I first thought my wife was joking, but I quickly realized she was serious [and] I asked her if anyone else at the wedding thought that, and she said no, but because everyone was too scared to say it,” he said.

“I told her that’s a straight-up lie, and I have close friends who would have said something, but they didn’t.”

Every guest he spoke to, whether they were friends or family members, told him they had a great time at the wedding and that nothing was out of the ordinary.

“My sister and I have never really shied away from affection [and] we know some siblings get awkward with that, but we’re the opposite of that, he explained.

Despite his explanations, his wife was still weirded out by the dance and went as far as to demand that he return the wedding gift his sister gave them, which was a very nice and expensive espresso machine.

His wife’s explanation for wanting the gift returned was that it made her insecure, which was disappointing to hear.

“I told my wife she was being incompletely irrational, and that’s the most ridiculous thing she has ever said,” he added.

“I was probably a bit crude with my words, but I just thought the whole thing was ridiculous. She then dropped the topic, and we carried on like normal.”

Although his wife eventually dropped the topic, which relieved him, he’s now wondering if he was too harsh when he told her she was being ridiculous.

What would you have done if your spouse told you that?
