| 0:00.0 | My husband allowed his brother to propose to his girlfriend at our wedding. |
| 0:04.0 | And this is all despite the fact that I said no, this is not going to happen. |
| 0:08.0 | But now that my worst fears have come true, and after running out of my wedding in a fit of rage, |
| 0:14.0 | I'm now considering divorcing my husband, as I feel completely betrayed. |
| 0:18.0 | Here's what happened. |
| 0:19.0 | Okay, for starters, this is a throwaway account, |
| 0:21.9 | and all the names in this story have been changed. I married my sweet husband Liam last Saturday, |
| 0:26.8 | and it was perfect, except for one major hiccup during the reception. Liam has an older brother |
| 0:31.6 | by the name of Ben, and they are very close. So it was no surprise when Liam asked Ben to be his |

| 1:00.9 | and attention on Liam. This led to Ben being emotionally neglected, and as a result, he acted out |
| 1:06.2 | big time in his teenage years. He got into a lot of trouble, and this led to their parents swinging the |
| 1:11.4 | pendulum in the opposite direction, lavishing all their attention on Ben. Now, Liam kept his head |
| 1:16.6 | down and didn't say anything. And to this day, their parents are more likely to side with Ben than with |
| 1:21.7 | Liam. Now, Liam is a very sweet guy, as I mentioned. Unfortunately, he is a bit of a people |
| 1:26.8 | pleaser and doesn't really |
| 1:28.0 | understand social etiquette and social cues very well. It has caused some problems, but I don't |
