The bride-to-be wrote on Reddit that her sister's "flirty comments" toward her future husband are "getting out of hand," making the couple feel "uncomfortable" and "disrespected"
Reddit users advised the bride to set boundaries with her sister, and have a serious conversation about her inappropriate behavior
A woman has taken flirting with her sister's fiancé "too far."
In a recent post on Reddit's "Wedding Drama" forum, the bride-to-be wrote that her sister's "flirty comments" toward the future husband are "getting out of hand" and "ruining the joy of wedding planning." Now, she's seeking advice from users on the platform for how to "move forward without burning bridges."
The bride explained that her wedding is just a few months away. When she initially began planning the celebration, she "honestly thought the biggest stress would be seating charts or vendor delays," but soon discovered it was her own flesh and blood "making wedding planning way harder than it should be."
"I didn’t expect the problem to come from my own sister," she wrote.

Ever since the couple got engaged, something has "felt off."
"The way she talks to my fiancé makes me uncomfortable," the woman shared. "Compliments that go a little too far, late-night texts that don’t need to happen, and these 'jokes' that are clearly not just jokes."
The Redditor tried to "brush off" the comments, hoping they were just "playful," but now believes it's something deeper and "toxic."
To give an example, she recounted a conversation at a recent family dinner where her sister laughed and said, "If you ever mess this up, I’ll be first in line."

The groom is now starting to feel "really weird" about the whole thing.
"Especially after she started texting him random stuff late at night that had nothing to do with the wedding," the woman noted in a comment. "At first, we both just kind of tried to stay polite and not rock the boat, but it’s clearly not just 'playful' anymore."
She continued, "He told me it’s making him uncomfortable and that he doesn’t want to be around her alone. I honestly never thought I’d be in a situation like this with my own sister, but I’m realizing I can’t ignore it anymore for his sake and mine."
The bride wants to confront her sister about her and her fiancé's discomfort but fears it will "turn into something ugly."

"But I also don’t want to keep ignoring something that’s making me feel hurt and disrespected," she concluded her post. "I’d really appreciate some honest advice from anyone who’s dealt with jealousy during engagement, inappropriate family dynamics, or anything that felt like a betrayal wrapped in a smile."
Reddit users said that the flirty comments are more like "sexual harassment," and needs to stop. They agreed that a serious conversation must be had with the sister, and suggested blocking her if the late-night texts continue.
Some commenters said that if the roles were reversed, like if the groom's brother was flirting with the bride, then more action would have been taken. The current situation, they argued, needs to be taken just as seriously.
"You need to stand up for your fiancée ASAP!" a Redditor said. "If this was his brother SEXUALLY harassing you would you be ok if he was 'addressing' it the way you are with your sister? AKA if he tells you, 'just ignore it, I don't want to say anything and 'rock the boat' in my family.' I'm guessing not, so why is it ok for you to behave like that? Stop excusing [this] as 'flirty' and 'playful,' it NEVER WAS!! Why do people think it is ok for women to sexually harass men like this?"
