AITA because I don’t want to attend Brother’s second wedding?

A Redditor shares their emotional dilemma about attending their brother's second wedding. Living on another continent, they have frequently traveled home for family events, spending considerable time and money. When their brother's first marriage ended in divorce, they supported him through it all. Now, with the brother's second wedding approaching, they request to bring their best friend of 20+ years as a plus one, but are denied.

ESH OP made the decision to move to another country which had huge implications regarding family visits. He also chooses to fly home for so many occasions. His family visits three time a year. I live an hour away and still battle to see family due to work and life obligations. No one is rubbing it in his face that he is not partnered they are just living their lives so stop thinking it is all about you OP. That said, his brother should definitely include the best friend unless there is a deep reason not to. Personally this is not a hill I would die on. Go to the wedding but cut back on visits for smaller occasions. Send a card for birthdays unless they are milestones.
