I kind of hate my FBIL. He's a giant child and has to be the center of attention at all times. What makes it worse is that my FMIL always favors him, I call him the golden boy. Really he is just selfish and truly believes the world revolves around him...
There are times he says and does things that makes my blood boil... at first FH would kind of get his back up and I understand it is his family but I asked that he try and see it from my point of view. He defintely gets it and now he sees it more... I think he just grew up being used to his brother's antics and his mother's acceptance of it so now I think it annoys him just as much as it does me...

Fortunately, I really get along well with his family and vice versa.

I could go through insane amounts of drama with FH's family (and believe me...I've already been through a lot) but there is nothing they could do that would make me question what FH and I have. I know he loves me and is on my side and that's all that matters. ![]()

Well FH's mother passed away when he was 16, and lived with his friend's family up until we moved in together 6 months ago - his father was never in the picture. They are Spanish but they do speak a lot of english but when I first began dating him, it was difficult to deal with because I couldn't understand what they were saying half the time, and there are many relatives that don't speak any english at all. Family parties were difficult at first, and it was very different from anything I was ever exposed to.
As the years have gone on, I couldn't love his family more. I didn't ever not like them but it was just difficult sometimes and I felt bad that I couldn't always understand what they were saying. Now I'm very close to them and he's in the process of being adopted by them. It always amazed me how they had 3 kids from the ages of 16 to 25, yet they still took him in when he was a troubled 16 year old. They even moved to a new house so he could have his own room. So needless to say, I'm very happy that I have such caring and helpful people in my life.

First i want to say thank you again (for like the 60th time) !!!!
My first question of the day is have you ever experienced any difficult situations with anyone in FH's family - but by difficult i mean to the point where you werent sure if you guys should stay together or not?? If so how did you handle it?
My answer to this questions - is, uh, yea i have quite a few times which is sad. Its not really the family as the brothers women. They lie and stretch the truth and come up with nonsense to try to cause trouble. It took a few years for 1 of the brothers (the only1 i really like) to realize that it wasnt me and it was them. Once that happened - it was like smooth sailing - i get along great with FH's mom, cousins and that brother - but now its to the point where the brothers let the women argue if we have to or not talk to each other if we have to and they dont get involved which is wonderful because i dont want to cause issues between the brothers. But i have learned to just stay away from them (which is why they are NOT invited to my shower) and everything will be wonderful! Im glad that FH stood by me because he knew all along it was them and not me. whew!!! that was a long response! Have fun & have a great day! XO
i've had a similar situation with one of my FH's cousin's wife. (They're a really close family so they're like brothers) its a looong story, but pretty much i've known her since kindergarten and i think it kills her to know that someone's entering the family who knows the real her, not the persona she puts up in front of the family.. any who, things are still kinda cold and weird when we have to be in the same room at the same time, but my FH has stood by me the whole time and i'm so thankful he's there for me
