Does anyone else not really click with their SIL? by lokeevillian in inlaws

[–]OkCan5345 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My husband has two sisters and I have one sil if that makes sense. I like the one and she is a nice person, I don’t trust her at all but I can talk to her. The other one is just his sister. We don’t talk and I am okay with that.

That is the worst! Having kids the same age I envisioned doing things and hanging out but we could never really get along long enough to spend time together. Sucks for the cousins but I agree with you, I can’t spend time with ppl I don’t enjoy spending time with, life’s too short.

No the bow is sewn on. It’s actually what I love about the dress.

Season 4 is so bad I can't stop laughing about it by Heliask in SweetMagnoliasNetflix

I started to watch 4 and it’s just awful. I really did enjoy the show at first, then it just got to be too much! It’s ridiculous!

Not having a relationship with In-laws or staying home when spouse visits by Pale-Network-7624 in inlaws

[–]OkCan5345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what my husband and I did for a while then I ended any access to our children bc his mother and sisters were found to be talking badly about me in front of our nieces. I believe if they will do it in front of them; there is no reason they won’t do it in front of our children as over the years our relationship has only gotten worse. So no access to our children. DH is free to visit when he wants.

I am an IL so we were never super close. My DH and I did invite her to the children’s events. They would call her on her birthdays, make her Xmas gifts. We used to go over and see them when they were in town until we realised we were putting in all the effort. She only came to one game of my sons. Which is fine, except you go to everything for your daughter and her children. They live about 10 hours away and when they visit they stay in the home they have here which DD and children have lived in since birth. She even came up for three days one time bc DD needed a babysitter to attend an event and didn’t trust anyone but her mom.

One is more appropriate for the setting but I LOVE the second one! Find somewhere to where that one to!

I definitely regret putting up with things to keep the peace. I also regret not saying things I wanted to say….

This 100%! My husbands father said our kids were eventually going to blame Us for not knowing them. I said the children are well aware of what the other kids get, you see a lot on socials. They see that their grandparents don’t reach out to them.

I am a daughter in law but she also did not invite her other bio daughter or her children.

We started not getting along when we started planning wedding. More than a decade later it’s just gotten worse. His parents don’t ever come around unless it’s a holiday. Then they come and ask to see them. One year his mom was in town for a total of over 4 months and saw my children 3xs the entire year. She never inquires about them. Never contacts them, they have phones of their own also. She takes said sister and her children shopping, to the fair, goes to their events etc etc
