I (33M) have a pretty close relationship with my sister (I’ll call her Jade - 24F). We were best friends growing up, and we are still very close to this day. Jade married her wife (Audrey 27F) last summer after dating for 3 years.

For as long as I’ve known her, Audrey has been this serious person that is all about business with little sense of humor. I mean it is understandable because her family of origin really wanted this for her. Jade doesn’t share much about her marriage but it is obvious that Audrey keeps a distance from everyone. I understand that and love her because Jade hasn’t been happier.

Now, back to the event. I dropped off my son (Liam - 8M) at his aunts’ place to go on a trip with my wife for two weeks. This was 2 months ago. Liam adores Jade and was happy to be staying with his aunties. Jade would update us and send us a few pictures every day, and it was lovely to see Audrey as involved in the whole process as Jade was. She has a busy schedule but she was there having a blast with Liam in every photo.

After we got back, I learned that Liam and Audrey had formed a ‘secret friendship’ because apparently he was the first family member from our side that met her. They kept it a secret for the sake of fun and mystery and would have fun together every time I dropped him off with them. Now they felt like they wanted to be a new kind of team and are sharing this with us.

I thought it was really cute and I started teasing Audrey ever since by saying things like ‘even vampires have a lot ot love to give (I call her a vamp cause she’s pale)’ or ‘Liam’s been telling me you give pretty good hugs (She doesn’t even hug Jade when she’s hanging with us)’. I said these things during dinner yesterday and Audrey herself was just smiling as she always does when I tease her.

Out of nowhere my mom tells me to stop disrespecting Audrey in front of everyone. She has the tendency to think of the worst and act like a volcano for no reason at all. I said I am clearly not disrespecting her because I am still alive, and if I did, Jade would probably cut me in half. She said I needed to stop this childish behavior. Audrey said it didn’t cause her any trouble, Jade said it was fine, but mom said it was her home and she didnt want any of her guests to be uncomfirtable. I said then maybe she should stop making these jokes about herself and let her guests enjoy their time together. My dad also picked her side and the enire evening was awkward.

My mom has sent me a lengthy text saying how it was rude of me to disrespect her at her own home. I kind of felt bad afterwards and wanted to see if what I did was indeed AH behavior. Pleade tell me if I was being a prick. Thank you
