A bride-to-be has revealed how her sister acts like her fiancé is her son’s father and how it’s making her feel very uncomfortable.
The 28-year-old woman took to Reddit and said that her sister always asks her fiancé Gabriel to drive them to places. There was even a time when she asked him if he would be “comfortable with adopting” her son Joe.
The woman explained that their mother has also told her sister that her actions were ‘inappropriate’ but she’s always replied in a ‘defensive manner,’ saying that “Joe chose him and that it is not her fault.”
She continued: “’Gabriel sat Joe in his knee and kindly explained to him how he wasn’t his dad or even a dad figure, that he was aunt’s partner soon to be husband and that made him his ‘favorite’ uncle, but even if he wasn’t his dad, he would never leave him and they’ll always be best friends.
“Joe, being the sweet kid he is, laughed and smiled and said that it was okay, then he ran to the living room to play with something.”
The bride-to-be believed that their problem has already been resolved but her sister wasn’t happy with it.
“My mom kept telling her to shut up but she was saying things like ‘what’s wrong with you two?’, ‘how can you say no to a little kid?’, ‘he sees you as a father, so you should be proud of that’, I had enough and I told her that Gabriel wasn’t Joe’s dad and that she needed to stop acting as if he was because it was honestly embarrassing,” she continued.point 465 | 1
Her sister then started using foul language and even accused her of being ‘jealous’ of her son.’
“She later sent me a text saying that it was best if we step out of Joe’s life for a while or we will end up ‘confusing’ him because he doesn’t understand that Gabriel is not daddy. But, as far as I could see, he got it pretty well.”
One Reddit user commented: “I am also wondering if there isn’t a jealousy element.point 200 | Not that sis wants Gabe for herself, but she is jealous that while she struck out on the partner lottery, her sister hit the ‘jackpot’, ie.point 326 |

Another shared: “I dated someone who had a ‘friend’ who’d lost her husband recently and continually tried to make my boyfriend the new daddy to her kids – always asking him to come to their sporting events, having them draw him pictures, asking him to babysit, etc. It culminated in her making a move on him and proclaiming that her kids saw him as a dad and they ‘needed him’. Just keep an eye out.”
