Anyone else hate having in laws?

I feel like its always some type of issue with them. Gah! If I ever marry again I'll be sure to marry an orphan.

This time around I wasn't invited to my brother in law's birthday party that his fiance is throwing him. Please note that said brother in law is my business partner. What.the.eff.

You'd think after 7 YEARS they would be accepting of me. Hoars.

Re: Anyone else hate having in laws?

  • They suck a$$.

     

  • I dont know why I let it bother me so badly but I do.
  • See DH's family drives me crazy but I can deal with them. My brother's wife on the other hand ConfusedWilted Flower
  • YES!  My In laws are horribly judgemental, small town, small minded, and sometimes literally just not smart at all.  They drive me CRAZY.  My parents, on the other hand, are wonderful. 

    Somehow in life, I think it's a trade off and you can't have great parents AND great in-laws?  Also, ironically I LOVED my ex-MIL but ex was obviously an a$$clown..I guess you can't have it all.

    I feel fortunate for small things, like that they live 4 hours away:)

    Sorry they are treating you that way, not cool.  And "not letting it bother you" is alot easier said than done so don't be too hard on  yourself about that...

  • I'm sorry they are being stupid.

     My ILs are crazy and seriously just don't get it. I've gotten to the point where I just avoid them as much as possible and tell them how it is when they start irritating me.

  • I think the worst part is that if my family ever treated my H this way I would be livid and stick up for him, and my family LOVES him. Sometimes I think they like him more than they like me. ;) lol  And H just lets the stuff with his fam roll of his shoulders and tells me not to worry about it.
  • That sucks.  You should have been included.  Totally understand how it feels to be left out.

  • wtf?  I need more details.  So they said, "hey, DH you're welcome to come but dont bring C." ?!?!

    If thats the case, I'd be pissed as HELL if my DH didnt put his foot down and roll some heads.

    And what does your BIL/business partner think about this?

    ditto, story of my life. prob should try to be more liked but trying not to care so much. They're just family right?

    Never trouble trouble till trouble troubles you.
  • No Amy, both of us weren't invited. But my H is all "well I dont care I woudn't go anyways" and "honey the week isn't over yet, he will probably invite us". A holes.

    I haven't said anything to BIL.

    I'd rather have my in-laws than my own family. They'd never run off to Vegas and get married without us...
