her post<\/a>, the woman explained that a trip to the Maldives is \u201csomething I have wanted to do since I was a kid.\u201d <\/p>\nHowever, her sister is angry as it is where she went on her honeymoon, and she doesn\u2019t want to share the tropical destination. <\/p>\n
The woman wrote that \u201cquite recently my sister has said that I shouldn\u2019t be going to the Maldives as this is where she went [on] her honeymoon. I never thought that going here because she had her honeymoon there was an issue and she nor anyone else ever previously expressed that this would be an issue.\u201d<\/p>\n
Things are escalating after her sister sent a text message saying that she would \u201ccut her off\u201d if the trip wasn\u2019t cancelled. Now the women\u2019s parents are \u201ctaking [the sister’s] side.\u201d <\/p>\n
Apparently, they think it is \u201creally hurtful\u201d for their daughter to visit the honeymoon spot. <\/p>\n
In updates to her original post, the woman added that she wasn\u2019t even visiting the same part of the Maldives as her sister, who honeymooned \u201cat one of the more expensive resort islands.\u201d <\/p>\n
As for her parents\u2019 defensive reaction, she wrote that they apparently think \u201cthere are plenty of other countries I can go to.\u201d <\/p>\n
She wanted to know if it was in poor taste to continue with her vacation plans, and many fellow Redditors rushed to encourage her. <\/p>\n
\u201cYou don\u2019t get to block off an entire country for forever just because you went there on your honeymoon,\u201d one person wrote, adding, \u201cLiterally even if you stayed in the exact same hotel and exact same room as her and her hubby it shouldn\u2019t be an actual problem for your sister.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another confused person wrote that they didn\u2019t \u201cunderstand how someone could get upset about you visiting the same country where they had their honeymoon.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow does your trip affect them? Do they think it devalues their own experience? They are being so self-centered! And your parents are also being ridiculous,\u201d they wrote, hypothesizing that the original poster was the \u201c\u2018easy\u2019 child who usually has to cave to you sister to make problems go away.\u201d<\/p>\n
Continuing, they asked, \u201cIs your sister always this competitive? Because if she is, it might be a relief for her to cut you off over something so petty.\u201d<\/p>\n
Yet another person pointed out how unrealistic the sister\u2019s demand was, sarcastically writing, \u201cMy wife and I went to Jamaica. I would appreciate it if all of you never went to Jamaica. I have now claimed it as mine. Thank you for your attention to this matter.\u201d<\/p>\n
One Redditor even shared a proposed message that the woman should share with her family: \u201cIt is hurtful and concerning that you consider our relationship so unimportant as to hold it hostage over something as simple as my travel plans, which are in no way hurting or competing with anyone. This suggests that any number of choices I make in the future will put our relationship at risk, and I am unwilling to organize my life around illogical perceived offences. I look forward to sharing stories of my upcoming adventure to the Maldives with the important people in my life when I return; it is up to you whether you will be counted in that group.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
