Growing up with a big brother can be both comforting and irritating. They're there with good advice and wisdom, and at the same time, they never hesitate to dish out unsolicited advice, which can be quite annoying.

Ultimately, if your brother is innately a good person, having him is truly a blessing, especially when it comes to protecting you. These older siblings always got your back through and through.

This was proven by a Redditor who chose to side with her younger sibling over his bride-to-be sister. Over at the "Am I The A**hole?" (AITA) subreddit, he asked people if he was the a-hole for deciding to skip his sister's wedding.

According to the original poster (OP), his sister had to reschedule her wedding day because of a cancellation. It was fine at first until he discovered that the date falls on the same day as his younger sister's graduation day.

The family was sympathetic toward the younger sister. Soon after, the OP discovered that the bride-to-be sister intentionally scheduled her wedding day on their younger sister's graduation day.

The OP ultimately decided to back out of the wedding plans in support of his graduating sister. He will be attending her big day instead.

Their older brother backed out of the wedding too. The bride-to-be sister became furious afterward, saying a wedding day is more important than a graduation day.

His parents also tried to convince him to attend the wedding instead.

The OP is wondering if he's the a-hole for deciding to skip the wedding.

Based on the family background the OP shared, you can already see why the bride-to-be sister became so self-centered.

The bride-to-be sister intentionally scheduled her wedding on her younger sister's graduation day.

After discovering what happened, the brother decided to side with her graduating sister.

The OP decided to drop out of the wedding with his graduating sister. He asks the community if he's the a-hole for doing so.

Their older brother backed out of the event too.

Some users lauded the OP for getting back at her sister by saying that one line.

The OP's son's new role (since he's not the ringbearer anymore).

Why aren't the others siding with the younger sister? Well, it smells like favoritism.

A lot of people are impressed by how much of a good brother he is. The younger sister will surely appreciate the deed.

It wasn't about pissing off the bride-to-be sister because she's the favorite. It was all about being there on the sister's big day.

If the OP feels the need to be petty, this user has written out the instructions.

Redditors support what the OP did. If they were in his shoes, they would've done the same thing.

The OP's actions are truly worth the applause. We hope that soon their parents will realize what coddling has done to their daughter.

Even if some of the family members will be absent during the graduation day, we're sure they'll have a blast. And the younger sister will always be grateful to her brother for doing what he did.
