I (19m) have 16 year old twin sisters “Amy and Ava” (fake names). They are part of this friend group that I don’t really like. Some are okay and I have no issues with them. But the rest are people I can’t stand. Three of them are particularly bad and they act as the ringleaders of the group. My sisters have other friends outside this group. But has been their core friendship group since we moved here 6.5 years ago.
My biggest reason for not liking most of those friends in the group is how bratty and entitled they are. Three years ago I was asked to supervise them at this Halloween event and I did it but almost pulled my hair out.
Two of them kept wandering off and they were being inappropriate toward me. Some of the others were making demands and treating me like I was paid to be there.
Amy and Ava stopped talking to them for a while after it but the friends involved apologized, and it was SO fake but whatever, and the friendship continued.
But I was asked and agreed to step in to chaperone a few other times and similar stuff happened. But it was blatantly disrespectful toward me. One of their friends developed this creepy crush on me too. I never told my sisters but this girl is someone I avoid now.
My sisters and their friends talked about going to a cabin for a week this summer and vacationing without parents. My sisters weren’t super into the idea but agreed if others were okay with it. Mom and dad told them they didn’t love the idea of them going without supervision of some kind. They told their friends and their friends all said that I was the person their parents felt okay with supervising. My sisters said I was busy and wouldn’t do it. But the friends went behind their backs and asked me themselves and I told them no. I gave no reason. My answer was simply no.
They freaked out and some of them told their parents I’d agreed. So some of the parents called my parents and my parents had to set them straight. This started between my sisters and their friends again. Their friends said I was being a jerk and didn’t have a good reason to refuse. They said I was an adult but not super old or a parent so I was the best choice. Some of the friends parents got offended that I wasn’t willing to agree to it either.
Now there’s still a fight between my sisters and their friends. But my parents are defending me to these other parents. The whole thing’s insanity and my sisters said they won’t go now anyway. Which the friends and their parents are blaming me for.
I know my sisters aren’t mad at me. But I know I could help end the fight between everyone if I said I’d go. AITA?
