Family-in-law crisis

Hey corrie, I must say that… that is a very though though situation you are in. But you know what? The LIFE or, better yet say…the love is between you and joe. You both love each other. I understand that family is always on our side, nothing will take the place for our family. But, again the LOVE is only between you and joe. And I must add this, As Dr. Phil said, whatever or however our family think or feel about the person that we chose to love or to share our life together and if they have problem, that’s where you know that person (in your case, joe) truly love us by steping in and stand by your side slove that problem. Let them know that YOU whom HE loves and want to share his life with. He will STAND UP FOR YOU! I know it’s not easy, but if love is truly what you have for each other, family can not break it.

Go to the wedding. That way no one can call you “immature” for not going. If his sister comes up to you screaming or if her “loyal friends” are going to “kick your a$$,” it’s most likely going to cause a scene, ruining her wedding. Then everyone will see who the true immature btch really is. And slap your boy across the face. He should be defending you not siding against you. Tell him to grab his balls and stand up to his little 22 year old sister and tell her that if you’re not going, he’s not going. I would never let any member of my family talk to my boyfriend that way and you shouldn’t be hearing it either. You sound like a kind person who has a good head on her shoulders. Keep your chin up and just bear the wedding. Either way, you’ll come out looking good. Fck his sister. She’s being a bridezilla.

This is awful! Well Corrine, I would first sit down with Joe and his whole family, including the sister and get this sorted out. What is it that they don’t like about you? And have Joe listen to each and every family member. It might not be as bad as you think. It could be a misunderstanding. You really need to sort this out. It seems like Joe really loves you and you feel the same so this is a test. Tough times will occur and this is the moment where you both have to work as a team to resolve issues. I really wish you the best of luck.

Wow. It will take tremendous courage, civilty and class for you to go to this wedding and pretend none of this happened. You will be the better person for it. Your sister in law has said some terrible things to you. But if you can handle this, then do go with Joe and show him that you can be above all the childish fights that his sister is trying to instigate.

But please do take her aside and tell her you will be attending her wedding for Joe’s sake, because he has begged you to accompany him.

Hold you head high, and wish the bride well. After the wedding, have a good chat with Joe and ask him what the hell is going on with his family.

I don’t think Joe cares a whole lot about you or he would have stood up for you - Red Flag >> Joe wants me to go to this wedding with him! He says I am being catty and immature and that if I don’t go it will be an embarrassment to him! << - What is that ?

Sorry, I’m PMSing big time can you tell?
