The sister of a bride is asking the internet for their thoughts after her sibling picked a wedding venue that is not wheelchair accessible.
In aposton Reddit’s “Am I the A——?” forum, a 24-year-old woman wrote that her sister — who she has “no issues” with — is getting married soon, but apparently did not consider her when planning the wedding festivities.

A woman has confessed she’s considering cutting ties with a friend to avoid the woman’s“creepy” husband— but she’s unsure if she’s overreacting.
She said the man makes both her and her family — as well as other people who have met him — “feel uncomfortable.”
“He’s just so odd. Creepy almost. He’s always there and I just always feel like I can’t be myself,” the original poster (OP) continued, adding that when she is able to spend time with her friend alone, it’s “lovely,” but “not very often.
