📝 AITA for jokingly calling my older sister a ‘party crasher’

On the 31st of December 2024, me (23F), my twin sister, her husband and a bunch of my friends (there was about 9 of us) were having a house party.

We were all drinking and having fun and for context, my twin sister and her husband have a very bad relationship with my older sister (31F) and her husband. They are not in contact.

My older sister she won’t be joining as she had other plans. That’ll be fun and there won’t be any conflicts in a fun day that I’ll have to resolve.

So as it’s coming close to midnight and we’ve all been drinking and pretty tipsy at this point, there’s a ring at the doorbell while we were playing charades and we all sit in silence in a bit of shock wondering who it could be. I look inside the peep and it’s my older sister and her husband (also pretty drunk).

I tell my twin sister, her husband and my friends the situation and my twin sister is extremely disturbed and uncomfortable so I just warn people to keep chill.

I open the door and jokingly say ‘GUESS WHO DECIDED TO CRASH THE PARTY!!!!!’ Letting them in and laughing.

My older sister goes to the kitchen and doesn’t come out for a while so I go to check on her and she keeps saying she doesn’t want to come out because she’s a “party crasher” and I said that was a joke! I only said it because I wasn’t expecting her.

And now there are certain times when I invite her and her husband out with friends I can’t help but feel like she holds this grudge against me because I called her that. I’ve explained it to her and we’ve made up and I’ve reassured her on many occasions.

TLDR: 31st of December, me, my twin sister, her husband and my friends had a house party and weren’t expecting anyone. My older sister and her husband show up pretty drunk (and they have a bad relationship with my twin and her husband) making the environment tense, and I jokingly called her a party crasher (I was also tipsy), I think she still holds a grudge to this day even with reassurance.
