Weddings: who gets a say?
The viral Reddit post had many weighing in, as the user vented about funding her brother's wedding while being left out of all planning decisions.
After the pair lost their mum in 2012, their dad in 2016, she began, they are now each other's only living relatives. "I have a good job, I earn a lot of money (£150,000 per year). My brother also has a good job, but doesn't earn anywhere near as much (£35,000). We were raised to always look after each other and share. My partner and I are child free.
