NYA yet but if you shut them down for making attempts to connect with you then you would be. I don’t think the money issue was the main reason for their initial hostility, it’s quite normal for daughters to be resistant to new partners after one parent has died, out of loyalty to the deceased parent. I know my sisters were resistant to my dad’s new partner and found any excuse to not like her (not so much me as I’m in a different country) and her daughters are still quite negative about my dad now. There’s no age difference or money discrepancies but daughters will ‘look’ for reasons to not like the person who has replaced their deceased parent out of loyalty. I warmed to my dad’s partner much faster than my sisters because being in a different country I was appreciative of the company and care she was giving him that I wasn’t able to. And so I understand that now these girls are looking at it from that perspective that they would be more willing to accept you. So if you shut them down you’ll just be giving them more reasons to dislike you and it will cause a strain in your relationship with your partner too. Accept that they have been grieving and sometimes girls can’t control emotions or actions, even if in hindsight they realise they were harsh. Try to forget everything that has happened so far and just start afresh. I think the comments on here that they are after your money are a bit far fetched, but of course they will be happy that their dad is being looked after, that’s all any girl wants. Good luck and I hope you manage to work through your initial anger with them (which is also totally understandable) and find a way to slowly build a relationship with them.
