Assuming the sides of the tires were cut there is no plugging those. ", What I dont understand is if you slash all of them how would you even fix it yourself? Why has your fianc not filed a police report on these people? I would sue those dumb asses. Are you going to allow these people around your future children? if all four tires are slashed you can call insurance to cover it as an attack. Likegrown ass adults? For making it my hill to die on or am I exaggerating? When I was little we were best friends. You're TA for continuing to subject your fiance to them. Have someone at the door of your wedding venue ready to kick them off the property. Stick with your fianc, start your own family and use them as examples of what not to turn out like.

OP, they should be damn lucky your fiance hasn't just walked away from you and the marriage. Bro thats kinda gay./s. a prank would be like. filling his car with balloons or something. Its a very dangerous prank. OP would also be justifying their behavior by joining in on the "pranks.". she's TA for allowing her husband to be treated so abhorrently. Ive been nagging him to go to the doctor to get it checked out and he has refused for months, even though it would be free. This is abuse. She's not bordering on it, she's well over the border. Which is what you're doing. Dont let any of those family members ruin an extremely special day between you and Tim. NTA, at first I thought a couple pranks like whoopee cushions could be funny but hiding his inhaler is absolutely not a prank. Im really fired up over this apparently. This is not what men do its what arrogant and immature assholes do. Sounds like Tim is the only real man among them. NTA - Hiding someone's inhaler is not a harmless prank! It doesn't matter. The slashing of the tires would probably be my limit for being around them, but he went on a solo camping trip with them after that (solo as in he didnt have anyone on his side to back him up if they pulled the shit they did)?? Bullies are going to bully, but at least if you elope, they won't have the opportunity and no one else will be asking you where your dad and brother are. Timmy didn't drive the wedge between you and your family. Get away from these people and their toxic masculinity. There's something wrong with anyone who considers vandalism like slashing tires a prank. Nothing worse than telling a funny story and everyone goes quiet and looks sad at you.

Responding to the Redditor's decision to uninvite his mother and sister from his wedding, thousands of commenters assured the 32-year-old that he was justified in doing so, and dragged the two . Frankly, who cares if they respect Tim, the question is, does Tim respect them? Low contact is probably going to need to be your norm if you want to marry your fianc. Asthma is no joke. The thing is, she still acts like she has something to make up for. My brother used to prank us by leaving frogs in our bed or tying the sprayer so it stayed spraying and then wiping mud or something on us so we'd have to go wash our arm and get sprayed turning the water on. Do you live in some backwoods place? Yeah, OP said she demanded they stop in response to the earlier incidents too. Does he have have a will, advanced directive, and medical power of attorney sorted out? Otherwise leave Tim and let him find someone that will respect him enough to not let her family torture.

These People are monsters, NTA and please consider what they might do should you ever have a son. Pranks dont have the potential to cost people their lives. Anyone who isn't willing to own up like an adult can make other plans. I grew up with a very messed up family. Since I assume none of them are medical professional, how exactly where they planning on testing his asthma? Slashed tires and stolen inhalers aren't pranks, they're crimes. I wonder what they would do if OP was engaged to a big dude with anger issues. Id tolerate an event with lots of people where they were there but I didnt have to speak to them. This has to be fake. That kind of behavior is toxic and pervasive. He ended up not seeing his son and I went to work. They just sound like a bunch of assholes!! Im waiting for the post here titled Would I Be The Asshole If I broke off my engagement to a woman whose family has been terrorizing me?. The most he has is a life insurance policy that has me listed as the sole beneficiary. Instead he has a lot of grit to put up with these AHs. NTA! From expensive property damage to verbal abuse to life threatening actions. Seriously, my husband had back pain and after many months I finally convinced him to go to the doctor in October of 2021. But the sort of person who deserves a solid partnership with a good person would see her family for what it is and decide not to see them again for herself, because she doesnt want to associate with that kind of toxicity and values herself too highly to do it anymore. NTA- for un-inviting your dad, cousin, brother, and uncle from youre wedding. NTA. NTA, and kindly remind your dad, brother, uncle and cousin that they got themselves uninvited. He TOLD ME that hed be taking my car and I should take the train. What they did could have KILLED your fianc. That's an asthma attack that could turn into a tragedy. Lots of things can go wrong and they have no idea how big it can be until it hits them on the head. NTA. NTA. This is constant bullying and it'll never stop.

These aren't "pranks" and what sort of fucking adult even "pranks" people anyway. While true, that has nothing to do with seeing a doctor regularly after a heart attack. However, she doesn't like her either. First have the conversation with your fianc if he even wants them there. Hey, OP - imagine your wedding reception. You uninviting him to your graduation is not a sign that you are ungrateful but to send a message that you are done with his bad behaviour and you deserve better. NTA, and just go NC with the whole lot - even your mom, because she clearly supports this shit. Slashing tires and taking an asthmatics inhaler is not typical.

When you cut off toxic people, it makes room for better people in your life. I would go LC/NC with the lot of them. Honestly that was pretty rude of her but unless her actions were specifically malicious I don't think she is the asshole NAH You should cut them off. I really hope you make them pay for the tires they slashed. Sounds like your cousin might have been going along with the crowd and knows it went too far. Fun, but definitely dont do this. I usually dont agree with people on this sub when they say to cut people off for the simplest of transgressions, but this is more severe. Yep. Unbeknownst to me for most of my parent's married life, they had issues and finally divorced when I was 12. #NTA. I mean the main reason the men in my family hate doctors is because they dont listen. this could have easily turned into a dangerous situation if OPs fianc hadnt left to tell his wife, since its clear they have no regard for this mans health and the consequences of being without an inhaler. Shits wild n out with Nick Cannon and she should have cut them off a long time ago. OPyes, this is the hill you are willing to die on. NTA. Because if she has an asthma attack and is more than 3 feet from one, she will die. For the people telling OP that shes TA for not cutting off sooner, please understand that for most people that grow up in this type of environment we become slightly apathetic to it and make excuses cause we think its NORMAL.

Please view our voting guide here, and remember to use only one judgement in your comment. Your fianc deserves your support and protection from your asshoke family members. Best of luck. They literally admitted to attempted murder, I mean the husband could always put a stop to those challenges but the fact that they hid the inhaler is unforgivable. Your fianc doesnt need to prove anything to any of them. Did they pay to replace his slashed tires? If a person disrespects your partner, then they're disrespecting you too. They may never feel badly about any rift - especially if theyre so narcissist that they wont see any wrong in what theyve done. she said her step-sister, who has now changed her mind and would like to go to the concert and, as a result, she no longer wants to go with me. NTA. I have mild asthma and have never needed a hospital (its either exercise induced, or triggered by my having a cold or something and my immune system deciding that while its doing inflammation anyway why not go into bronchitis for 2 months?). NTA all the way. NTA for disinviting them stand your ground OP. NTA Sorry, you do NOT deserve to be treated like this. So it's safe to assume they would have stopped pranking after they "accidentally " killed him? TBH, if I were your fianc, I'd probably end the relationship if you DONT go NC with them, because they're literally dangerous to him. Your fianc could have died! Wow, what the fuck?? It's obvious they have preconceived ideas on what a real man is (going so far to risk your fiance health). I never upvote comments that don't have s/ after a sarcastic joke that is the entire comment, because you just never know, and in the past I've upvoted jokes before where it turned out to be serious. I'm sure that if you let them back in, they're going to haze your fiance more. Pranks aren't supposed to cost the person being pranked money. If I was their SO I wouldnt have stayed after that. I sent Dean and Kevin invitations but once they found out that our stepdad was going to be there, they said they might not come.

Before or after he passed out/died? They could have killed him by hiding his inhaler. People die from asthma. Obviously plenty of couples choose to be childfree or go for adoption, but if OP wants to have biological children with her husband then can she really leave them in the care of her parents knowing that an asthma attack will be treated as "learn to breathe better you whiny brat"? Deconditioning that crap takes time and effort and space and exposure to how people should behave - and guarantee that OP wasn't getting that guidance from the enabling mom. NTA. I am a woman who grew up in a very masculine family. I do not understand how they were not uninvited after the tire slashing. OP this is a hill worth dying on. Youve subjected him to a lot and youve let A LOT slide. NTA, defend your poor innocent fianc, and if any of them dispute the right to go your wedding, point out that since they admit slashing his tires and stealing his inhaler you would be well within your rights to press charges against them for vandalism and harassment.

Your male family members sound like toxic sexist AH, who love bullying under the pretense of how manly they are.
