Me and my brother have a great relationship.
For some god awful reason he occasionally makes decisions that he wouldn’t normally do and his behavior does a 180z
I was sick one day and felt super shitty. I couldn’t find anything to eat that would fill me up properly. It was terrible trying to scrounge up enough to eat before needing to rest.
I remembered my brother was available to get me food and something from the pharmacy. No brainer.
He seemed very bothered and irritated when I asked, even knowing I was sick. He all but told me to fuck off. I couldn’t believe that this shit still happens. The person that never hesitated to pay full meals for me on a daily basis. Why the 180 treatment now?
I told him when he’s sick I’m gonna throw the exact same shit back at him. The anger whipped out the “save” option and burned it into my soul to bring up later.
Since then he’d been his great caring self. Lent money to him, which he’s payed back, listened to him through his breakup. Worked together well to solve my issues. Today he was sick and asked me to get him food while making it obvious he’s forgotten about what he did to me.
I calmly told him if he remembered what I told him last time. Nope?
I slowwwly and condescendingly told him that I definitely had not forgotten. That I needed him and he cruelly refused to be there for me while having a rude ass attitude.
“Oh” and he leaves. He’s currently on an empty stomach and he can fuck off for today. Being sick that day really sucked.

Going on the internet to brag about how petty you are is a phenomenon I’ll never understand
My brother ratted me out for coming home late one weekend when our parents were away. So I stopped helping him sneak back in the house at 3am and started deadlocking all the doors 🙂
So you have a really good relationship with your brother, and they wrong you one time when you’re sick, so you carried it and retaliated because “being sick that day really sucked”?
Sounds like a good way to destroy a really good relationship if I’m honest.
This is a good story for r/pettyrevenge

This sub cannot stop their love to criticize so disproportionately deeper than I ever did thinking this is life altering or distressing lol.
I learned from a post of mine that blew up that the snarky comments always come first even if the post ends up dry.
Your brother got a taste of his own medicine, 100% fair call.
>me and my brother have a great relationship
🙄
I’m really concerned that someone this petty and immature is a gun owner.
Get over yourself
Brothers.
People who don’t understand this probably don’t have siblings they are inseparable with. My twin sister is my best friend and nothing could ever change that. We almost never fight, but when we do, we fight hard. I am never that petty with anybody else lol. In fact, I’ve never been in a fight with anybody else. But we also forgive and forget fast, even if we need our revenge sometimes lol.
I would have still brought food and medicine, but I’d staple a big ass note with the OG text printed out, rubbing it in her face that I’m the better sibling. But maybe us sisters are less cold blooded 🤷♀️
I give him all my change, then ask him for change as I’m out of change and need it.

This is pathetic.
I feel like there are so many ways you could have made your point without being so petty or spiteful. As someone with four siblings with plenty of sibling spats to complain about, the fact you carried this with you is strange, especially when you even pointed out that his rude behavior was uncharacteristic. This just seems really unnecessary, even if it’s kind of funny.
Not sure why a grown adult can’t take care of themselves when they’re sick. You can get your prescriptions delivered. You can get food delivered. You can get anything you may need from the drugstore. You can get prepared food delivered. You don’t need to leave your house for anything.
Not all the men in the comments berating you for not simply forgiving and forgetting his bullshit 😂 I feel sorry for the women in their lives.
You could have taken the high road. It would have been better for your soul than this petty bullshit.
Sometimes the hardest thing to accept is others are not going to be there for you at times and its not their responsibility.
