FSIL/FMIL Vent ~ {UPDATED} aarrgghhhh

Original post by Roed522

OK This is a bit long but I need advice girls...
They (FMIL & FSIL) are driving me nuts
{pours a glass of Pinot}
OK I sent out e-mails to all of my girls a few weeks ago, including FSIL who I asked to be in my BP because I thought it would be the right thing to do. I told them that they had to order their dresses NO LATER then 4/14. Thaat day came and went, I didn't stress over it too much because I figured I still had at least another week to work with. As of yesterday everyone had gotten their orders in except for guess who. Yup, FSIL, arrggg I just wanna scream because it's been like pulling teeth. Everytime I ask her she'll answer me with a question and nevers gives me a straight answer. Yesterday I spoke with the shop owner and she told me point blank that if my dress order wasn't placed by today that I might not have my dresses. I am sooo pissed and totally stressed. I call her stresing and she's like 'oh I can't make it today do you know if... and proceeds to ask me a ton of questions that I can't freakin answer because I don't work at the ******** shop. Pick of the damn phone and call her yourself and stop sending me senseless e-mails and wasting more time. needless to say 5:30, the cut off time came and went. Her mother, FMIL happen to be here (that's another story ) and what does she do, gets on the phone calls the shop and tells the woman, 'Look my daughter can't make it there and I'll call you tomorrow to place the order' She gets off the phone and says 'see what was so hard about that'. What did she think the woman was going to say. She's already told me I'm taking a chance if I didn't order today. I was tempted to place the order without hers and then let her order hers on her own and whatever happens happens, at the same time I know that if I did that it would have created a whole lot of drama around here. We'll see what happens tomorrow, should I e-mail or call her and tell her that she has up until a specific time if not I'm going to have to place the order??? I just wanna cry, then FMIL says 'oh it's nothing to stress over'
I can tell you one thing if someone did that to her daughter she would have her short hairs twisted!!
Sorry I told ya'll it was a bit long.

OK so after all the BS about the damn dress I figured I would take a step back and let things go but NOooooo, not FMIL... this is what she says in her last e-mail to me, (just when I thought this would all be dropped) .... 'Please do not think she doesn't care. She was told that she had until tonight to go and that was her full intention. She was definitely going to be there tonight. In being completely honest (which I hope is something we can always be to each other) everyone else went two days before her and that wasn't an issue. But enough said, it is done and that is all that matters.'
Now is it just me Ladies but did she have to go there about the girls that ordered their dresses 2 days before?? She just had to have the last word. Needless to say it's been driving me reakin nuts because I wanted to reply so bad but I didn't. Then of course when I tell FH about it, he says this.... '........................' Yup that's right Nothing, total silence. I called him on it though and ask him if he wasn't saying anything because he knew she was wrong, I also told him that I knew that he would never admit it because he would always defend them no matter what they do. Now everyone is PISSED because I decided not to attend his cousins communion today. Hellooo why would I want to go and sit with His Mom and his Sis and his entire family when I know for a fact that all they did last night and today was talk **** about me and the dresses, yeah re comfortable right. He's not even going to be there because he's working. First he calls to ask if I'm going, I told him no, then his aunt, cousin and my FMIL all call to ask the same thing. When FMIL called to ask if I was going and I said no she got all pissy and said ok goodbye and 2 seconds later he calls back. Get this now he calls back to tell me that if I don't go that I'm making a BIG mistake. Now you're threating me, like I have to go or else their will be consequences, F*&^ THEM!! So yeah now I'm not talking to FH and I told him not to call again and to tell his entire family not to either

Sorry ladies my MOH couldn't be reached and I just had to let this out TIA

Re: FSIL/FMIL Vent ~ I just wanna SCREAM

Believe me girl, if this is bad it only gets worse with the FMIL and FSIL, for my SURPRISE wedding shower, my FMIL and FSIL both together showed up an hour and a half late to my shower.

And then my FSIL had the balls to walk into my shower talking on the phone like she was this important person that couldnt even get off to give me an appropriate hello.

The next day my FMIL TRIED to apologize for being late after my FH screamed at her. As she is saying she was sorry, she is laughing. I got so mad and I said Im happy you think this is funny.

Its been a month since my shower and my FSIL still didnt call me or apologize to me when she saw me. Believe me she isnt in my BP, thank god...

WHOA Loads of drama.

Hopefuly she will get her order in on time & if it doesn't fit that's her own fault. Her behavior is unexcusable. It's hard to be peacemaker but sometimes being nice has to go out the window for the sake of sanity. If the order isn't in today sumbit everyone else's & remove her from the BP. Who wants that kind of stress??

aarrgghhh I knew this would only get worst.
I can so see FSIL doing something like that. I'll just have to take that lil f'ing blackberry that she walks around with and stick it straight up her narrow, selfish, self absorbed, Azz!!
The good thing and be very glad is that your FH stood by your side. Not in this house, I've actually packed bags before due to FMIL related fights. Her kids are 'Perfect'and can do no wrong, it's everyone else who's screwed up. Yeah ok, whatever lady {pops her bubble}

He will defend his own til the end no matter what it cost him. Geez I like a family oriented guy but come on already.

I've got a bit of a vindictive streak in me sometimes .... I would order the other girls dresses without your FSIL's since she can't seem to get her act together.

And if FSIL's dress doesn't get ordered, then guess who won't be in the bridal party?!



This is exactly what I would do. How many times do you need to tell her. It sounds like she really doesn't want to be in the wedding. I would just flat out ask her, do you want to be in it or not. If so order the damn dress already. Nicely ofcourse.

Ummm Nothing to stress over? HELLO IT'S YOUR WEDDING! of course your going to stress over deadlines!

Honestly! some people!

I would giver her a deadline and if she doesnt reach that deadline then put in the order. Ugh! If it was me I would give her the deadline or she is our of the BP. But thats me.

Trust me, I think he only defend me because I made a big stink, and since he has to live with me, he better do it now or he will be miserable,

Just this week, I had told him no more people are getting added to the wedding. What did his love Mother do. call him and tell him that so and so are coming, he didnt even bother talking to me about it, just told FMIL to give him the address I was sitting right next to him, FMIL isnt paying a dime for the wedding so should have no say on who comes and who doesnt

Set your ground girl, trust me. I've been in his family for 9 yrs It doesnt just stop

Jes, that really stinks. I'm sorry you are dealing with this crap! I hate it when family members get involved in relationships! FH should stick by your side though...but I know sometimes my FH doesn't..he is a momma's boy (Lucky for me I love his mom) So, once in awhile they slip up and get pressured to take a side...it sounds like maybe your FMIL said the BiG mistake part...from what you say about her, I can picture her saying that to him to tell you., I hope it all works out, sorry.

Re: FSIL/FMIL Vent ~ {UPDATED} aarrgghhhh

Oooh goodness. Im sorry for all this cr@p!

well, for one, im glad you didnt reply to her email. if she wants that cheap last word, give it to her. what can you even say back that woudl be of use at this point.

at first, when you said youre not going to the communion, i kinda disagree w/ you. i wouldnt skip it out of spite, but thats just me!! im not dealing w/ these issues, ya know. but If youre not going bc youre just uncomfortable w/ fh not being there, thats more understandable. ultimately, to be honest, id suck it up and go. i wouldnt want to burn bridges when you know this drama will pass. its just going to keep spiraling from here. it gives more fuel for the fire. and im sorry its causing problems w/ you and fh, try to nip it in the bud if you can! all JMO!!

Re: FSIL/FMIL Vent ~ {UPDATED} aarrgghhhh

sorryy i know how you feel, i go through similar situations, TRY NOT TO fight with ur FH over his crazy mom, you two love each other...and try to make this work...ur inlaws will always be a part of ur life no matter what...sadly like my mom says 'your not only marrying FH your marrying the family' .... hope you feel better

and i know when im angry im like screaming at FH and all he does is stay silent, or defend his mom, or say im making a big deal out of nothing, or im 'immature' yeah and his moms real mature right?


hope everything works out...try to calm down and have a heart to heart talk with FH and a manner that wont feel like your attacking him.... instead of saying 'They did this to me.... I hate FMIL ..' Try using phrases like 'I felt so upset when ....[this occurred] ...'

Re: FSIL/FMIL Vent ~ {UPDATED} aarrgghhhh

I'm so sorry you're going through this! I too thought that you weren't going to the 1st communion out of spite, but since FH isn't going to be there, you're not obligated to go! its ***** that you have to deal with this junk, but be strong and try to let your mind relax! the more you don't let her get to you, the better it'll be

Re: FSIL/FMIL Vent ~ {UPDATED} aarrgghhhh

::Sigh:: It does blows big time but you are all right. I shouldn't let it cause problems between him and I. If he were going I would definelty have gone. I get along great with his entire family. Believe it or not even FSIL and FMIL most of the time, when I turn the other cheek that is. So I had every intention of going but without him there it's just going to be a VERY uncomfortable situation. I've been there before (more than once) and I refuse to do that to myself again. They also have a way of turning everyone else on you in a heart beat. SO I know it would be one of those, you walk into a room and everyone just gives you looks and no one says too much to you. They all stick together even when they know that they're wrong. Well I think I'm just goona have a few cocktails and sit in the yard, enjoy the peace and quiet and work on a tan
oh and he calls back and says 'I spoke to my Mom and we're going out there Monday to talk all of this out and just put an end to it' Yeah that should be fun, talk about get ready to get tagged teamed.
