Father-in-law problems....
My husband and his dad are SUPER close which I'm fine with because I'm close with my family as well it's just that I'm pretty sure he spends more time with his dad than with me and if I try to confide in him for something he'll tell his dad too whether it's his dad's business or not. I get super frustrated and I don't know what to do anymore!! Please HELP!
Re: Father-in-law problems....
Telling something that is not his dad's concern is not great.
You have an H problem, not a FIL problem. I strongly suggest you tell your H where this is at and nip this in the bud now.
Tell him flat out he's to not repeat tales out of school to his father. What he is doing is just wrong.
I failed to mention in the first post that his dad is staying with us for the time being because of a hard time (which is a long story) on his part and is trying to save up a little extra cash so he can finish his home (it's not liveable at the moment).
My FIL heart is in the right place but he wants to be involved with everything like for example if my H and I are having a convo in the living room his dad likes to butt in as well. He has never lived alone before and isn't use to his son being an adult who can make his own decisions because it will always be his little boy. So he is always trying to help but sometimes his help gets in the way or makes us disagree.
I try to be polite and bite my tongue so I can think before I speak (my FIL is also sensitive) so with the living arrangements at the moment I def. don't want to cause any tension or hurt feelings.
