Family rant coming on.
I can't believe that woman has her daughter convinced that I slapped the daughter years ago.
I never touched the kid. The teenager wanted a stuffed animal. So teenager said she would just ask my then boyfriend (now husband). I told her I would ask him. She got all butt hurt because she thought I meant get it for me. Her mother over the years turned that into a physical slap.
Her mother didn't like me for 2 reasons. One I am 10 years younger than my husband. And 2 I disrespected her former sister-in-law by not waiting a year to marry my now husband. Husband is the one that set the date. He called one Monday and said do you want to get married this Friday or next Friday.

Out of respect for my husband, I can't say anything to that woman that happens to be his sister. He told me to be the bigger person. Due to family stuff we have to see her this week.

I can't believe after all the crap hubby's first wife put him through, his sister thinks of her as perfect. I know the sister knew what was going on, I'm just not sure if the sister was helping with the crap. Heck, the niece knows and she was only 13.

I don't understand it, I'm not sure I want to. Not that I really give a rat's behind what his sister thinks of me, but you would think being his sister she would want him happy.

I can guess something happened after his former wife left. All I know is when his first wife left this world, his sister and her family was staying with them. A few months later, the sister had moved out at her brother's request.

Then I come along and big brother starts turning his sister down for money. Part of that stemmed from he didn't have any for various reasons.

Oh and yes, husband and I have talked about his first wife. Heck, our first conversation about her was when we announced we were getting married and his sister was all you need to wait. Poor man, he didn't understand his sister's thinking. As far as his mental state, she (first wife) was gone (although way more expensive than a divorce) and he was ready to get on with his life.
He had already boxed up all her pictures by the time I moved in.

Now the kicker is I have been married to him at the moment 10 years longer than the first wife.
You would think his family would realize we are happily married. But no, his family won't.
I couldn't believe what he told his niece last night about his sister. He gave an ultimatum. Either accept my wife or stay out of my life. Needless to say there hasn't been much contact in the last 26 years.

I don't like that because I have a feeling, it will be a nice to my face only. I don't deal well with passive-aggressive bull. Time will tell. Part of me wants to be protective wife but it isn't worth it. And I thought I had the crazy family.

Long rant over.
