By skyforbes Last Saturday her water broke. She called me panicking because it was three weeks early and she was home alone. I left work, got her to the hospital, texted my girlfriend (26F) what was happening.
My girlfriend met us there. Everything was moving fast. When Hannah's contractions got really bad she asked if I'd stay in the room with her. She didn't want to be alone. Her mom is dead, her best friend was stuck in traffic, and obviously her husband is deployed.
I said yes. My girlfriend got this look on her face but just said she'd wait outside.
I stayed through the whole birth. It was intense but Hannah needed someone there. She had a healthy baby girl.
My girlfriend came back after. Met the baby. Seemed fine.
Then we got in the car and she went off on me. Said it was weird and inappropriate that I was in there. That I saw my sister in a "vulnerable state" and brothers shouldn't see that.
I said her husband is deployed and she didn't want to be alone giving birth. My girlfriend said she could have asked the nurses or asked my girlfriend instead.
We've been dating five months. Hannah barely knows her.
We've been fighting for three days. She keeps saying it was inappropriate and I crossed boundaries. I keep asking what boundaries exactly and she just says "you know what I mean."
I don't know what she means. I was supporting my sister during a major medical event.
This morning I said maybe she should talk to someone about this reaction. She got pissed and said I'm calling her crazy.
I'm not apologizing for being there when my sister needed me. But my girlfriend is making me feel like I did something wrong.
AITAH?
