Was I right for not saying anything in the moment?

So last night I had a birthday event. It was in an Airbnb and my older sister invited her friend. It was old fashioned so it had an actual key and I couldn’t find it anywhere. I just turned 21 and this was my first time renting one and I didn’t take a lot of precautions I should have. Like taking pictures of everything and recording everything. My friends sister who is only like 3 years older than me sat me down on fro t of everyone and berated me like a child. I was so embarrassed. Why do that I front do everyone. It was so uncomfortable. I didn’t even know what to do. I didn’t want to check her in front of everyone but I was very uncomfortable with the way she talked to me. I don’t like it at all. I feel weird that it happened and like I should have said something but I kept quiet. I’m soft spoken and quiet so It happens quite often but I was not okay with it and I want to grow out of it. I don’t need anyone talking to me like a kid. I’m and adult

Seems like she likes to belittle you in front of others to make herself feel in control and powerful. And why did she do that? It isn’t her place to do so. It was totally out of line.

Yes and it’s like there was an entire audience and I don’t even talk to her for her to do that. I’m very embarrassed all my friends had to witness it

She totally did it on purpose to embarrass you in front of your friends. She must got a kick out of “being older and wiser”.
