Are you the OP of the Christmas Tree lighting thread? Because you sure do sound similar. Irrationally entitled and aggressive.

I'm just protective of my brother. She is going to have to get used to it.

And you will have to get used to keeping your own counsel, or you wo t be welcome in their life. They hold the power over that. Not you, sis.

Buy your brother an Epi Pen for Christmas!

OP, what would you do if you were married and had made some compromises with your spouse about how to handle things in your own home and your husband's sister came in and basically told you that you were wrong, your husband's compromises were not good for him and that you were not allowed to have your say in your own home, even though your husband agreed to it.

Let's say you have a family tradition of a particular holiday meal or dish that your family has always had for a special holiday, but your husband is allergic to it. Your mother is coming and you really want to serve what she always served as long as you can remember. You husband agrees as long as it is served separately and it stays away from the other food, so he doesn't eat any. Plus, he can take Zyrtec or Claritin beforehand as a safeguard. Then his sister comes in and accuses you of trying to kill her brother and that you are amazingly selfish for trying to serve that dish in the house while your brother is there. How would you react?

I'm sure that you would be profounding apologetic, agree that you really don't care for what happens to your husband and that you'll just skip what you hoped would be a big nod of appreciation to your mother by honoring her tradition that you love. And you'll realize how wrong you were to even think of honoring your mother because frankly, your husband really had no idea what he was agreeing to and he needs to be mothered by both you and his sister as you both know better than he what he needs.

Well when my brother married his wife she had told him how much going and picking out a real tree meant to her before knowing of his allergy. That was 5 years ago. They've had fake trees every year. This year my brother's wife was showing me their tree on her phone and I said wow that looks real. It is real. I'm done with her. I can't believe she would do this to my brother. Ugh

Maybe it is a douglas fir dum dum

Just out of curiosity, are you this protective of your brother with everyone, or only with women he is romantically involved with?

Protective in general. When I said something to her she said first of all stop referring to him as your bubba since we aren't 5 and second people outgrow childhood allergies all the time. Then she told me to shut up and stay out of it. She's a peach.

What the fuck is this about?

People from the south use Sissy and Bubba as nicknames for sister and brother. OP is a creepy weirdo who still does it even when confronting her SIL about her Bubba's Christmas pine allergy and SIL told her to knock it off. I like SIL.

WTF? is it a pine Xmas tree?

One of my kids is highly allergic to peanuts. Anaphylactic, hospital if one bite, the works. Am I a bad mom because I have almonds in the house?

This has absolutely nothing to do with you. Get out of their relationship!

This to the degree I wonder if this is a genuine post.

I guess I overreacted. I just get so tired of how unappreciated my brother is by his wife.

Something tells me your beef has very little to do with pine trees and more to do with your overall perception of your SIL.

Tree allergies are a real thing. My son recently got a full allergy work-up and his allergy to various trees was off the charts. I had a sneezing fit after decorating our pine tree last weekend.

And how would you know? You brother has venting sessions with his sister?
Lemme guess, you're single.

I dare you to confront her if you're so bold.

I did confront her.

As long as he's fucking her and not you, you're opinion will never carry as much weight. And, like the PP said, unless his mouth has swelled shut AND his hands have swelled to the point he can't write or type, you need to STFU and MYOB.

OMG you are the most vulgar person ever!

Well, it's true.

That was my first thought too
