Hey Waffle gang, I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more Reddit stories.

And if you do love a Reddit story, why not consider?

I can't like, subscribe. Maybe that notification bell too. And let's crack on with today's first story.

Much love, guys. Now, today's first story comes from

Cherry Cola, Koka, 1 from the Am I the Ass or Here subreddit and says,

Am I the arse or here? For refusing to go to my best guy friend's wedding and telling my parents

I'm going to cut them off. I grew up with my family and another family whose parents were best

friends with mine since high school. My parents had me, female 28, my two older brothers,

male 31 and male 35, or their friends had four boys, male 27, male 29, male 30 and

male 37. Growing up was pretty nice, but the boys used to pick on me a lot

and exclude me during their girls a yucky face. I wouldn't say I see these boys as brothers,

but maybe as cousins. I was close to male 27 and male 29 when we were little. I will call them

Adam and Jake. Until we were 15,

we were really close and did a lot together. I don't talk to Jake much anymore. No hard

feelings but he grew up to be a classic tech bro and can be pretty condescending. However,

our families are obsessed with the idea of us ending up together. The other guys

are already married and Adam is gay. They've always pushed for us to be together, making

us go to the store alone at Christmas, telling us both an earlier time to meet at the restaurant

for Dad's birthday, talking him up a lot, etc. And both Jake and I met our S.O's. I've been

with my fiancé for five years and Jake met his fiance three years ago. Our families

have been very disappointed and have not welcomed our Sos warmly. One Christmas I took Jake's

fiance, Tracy aside and explained the weird family law to her with Jake, just like we did my fiancé.
