He said that his read on the breakup between the ladies is that it's mostly stubbornness in addition to whatever those low blows were, which I assume means that they're just both so entrenched in their positions that they can't even understand each other and just talk this out.

Honestly, if I were in your shoes, I would probably write that letter to your stepbrother.

And I would basically say that it's been very hard and confusing to be cut off and excluded from the wedding.

That if there is an issue between you and or between your partners, you are eager to hear them out, understand the problem, find a resolution in a spirit of like genuine curiosity and openness, of course.

And that despite all of this, you love your stepbrother and you want to be a part of his life and his big day so that he really feels that.

And that you would love for the conversation to happen as soon as possible, ideally before the wedding, so that nobody in the situation regrets missing out on sharing this important event.

I think it's important for him to remember the stakes here.

I don't disagree.

But the fact that he's probably avoiding his brother in solidarity with his fiance.

Yeah.

Such an interesting parallel with the first question, because with the business partner might have been acting in solidarity with his new girlfriend.

It's interesting.

If the problem is not even between the two brothers, that complicates things even further.

That is also a problem if he's that's why he's uninviting them.

But it's a totally different problem.

And that's not something our friend here can really resolve.

It's not his business, really.

No, if that is what's going on, then he's definitely affected by it severely.

But it's not really his place to tell his stepbrother.

It might be harder for him to say, hey, this is how much you should take your spouse aside.
