We all wish we could try a few alternatives before making a final decision, but often in life, you can’t.

In this case, two sisters went on different paths, but one of them now seems bothered that the other one is choosing a similar path to what she originally wanted before having babies.

The person who posted about it is wondering if she’s in the wrong for being blunt to her sister about it not being her fault that she became a mom instead of finishing college.

Read the story and see how things played out.

AITA for telling my sister it’s not my fault she became a mom instead of going to college?

My sister (28F) had a good thing going, after high school, she went to college for sales and finance to do real estate.

She was 17 when she got into college because she graduated early.

She got in the mix with her boyfriend. At that time her boyfriend was 36 and they met because he was at a college party and he got to her.

No one could tell her anything about him.

She certainly thought it was them against the world, while he was grooming her.

It was crazy because she was deep in love with him, our parents did not approve of this relationship because they thought it would ruin her future.

She ghosted everyone, no one knew that she dropped out until two weeks later.

She wasn’t leaving her boyfriend and no one could stop her. She only dropped out because he wanted her to and I guess made her believe college wasn’t good enough.

My sister is very gullible and believes anything if you sound sincere about it.

Her sister cut contact with her and their family and gave up her previous plans.

She stopped calling everyone, if we called them, her phone would go right to voicemail.

Anyways, she has 5 kids with her husband now, still going strong, recently had her baby on Mother’s Day.

I barely talk to her, off and on. She used to be fun to be around but she finds fun in being with her kids and that’s good, she cooks all day, cleans, washes clothes, lost many friends.

In the meantime, she got into college.

Now that I’m in college, I study finance as well. My sister didn’t know because she never cared to ask because she has her own family now.

I was surprised to get a call from her, we ended up having a deep conversation.

That’s why she finally asked what I was doing in college…

I told her I was doing finances for real estate and I guess something just clicked.

This ticked her sister off.

She asked why I was copying her, which was so random for her to ask.

I told her I wasn’t copying her, but she threw multiple questions at me. She then asked if I thought I was better than her because I’m taking her spot.

It was weird because she was going crazy, I was trying to calm down the situation, but she added to it.

She was projecting on me, saying that I’m never going to be in her spot.

She ended up lashing out as well.

I told her it wasn’t my fault she became a mom and didn’t finish college. I made her cry.

She called our mom, my mom told me what an ******* I was being and of course, I second guessed myself, so I might be wrong.

AITA?

They’re sisters, so having similar interests is quite normal. This whole argument was unfortunate.

Let’s see if Reddit has anything to say about this situation.

Her sister saw herself in her.

Some advice.

Yup. She was a victim.

This commenter shares their feelings.

Another reader chimes in.

It was like she held a mirror and her sister saw the potential she forgot she had.

Hopefully, her sister reconnects with her true self and matures emotionally.
