nervous about FIL'S

Whenever there is a post about FIL'S and how weird or annoying they are-I read it because I have in laws from hell, but this is a little different. I'll try to keep it to the point.
My FH father past away 21 years ago and my FMIL married a man when my FH was 16 or so. His 'step-dad' is very strange and he has been making me nervous lately and I dont know how to approach it. the 'step-dad' is against us getting married because after we get married my FH will not be living there anymore~ the step-dad will not have him there to help him do things around the house and hang out with him at night when his Full children go to bed(FH mom and her husband have 2 children together) now, when I go over there(which isnt often bc of all the turmoil that the FIL'S have caused me) he stares at me with the nastiest looks, follows me and FH around, makes jokes about me being over-weight and just plain-old nasty stuff. I'm starting to be a little scared of this man. He is very unstable. I tell FH about it and he tells me that he talks to the step-dad about it and the step dad says that I'm over reacting, but the very next time I'm around him he is doing it again! I just dont know what to do?! I'm at the point where I don't want to go over to the house at all, and risk me not seeing my FH as much as I would like to bc of it...and we dont see each other as much as I would like to now(work schedule conflict)!


thanks for listening~~hope it wasn't to long of a vent! but this is something that has been on my mind for awhile now.



Feel free to FM if you don't want to post it on the boards.



thx

Wow, that sounds tough. Do you think maybe you could talk to FH step dad yourself? Let him know how uncomfortable his behavior makes you. Also, if it gets to it and he starts getting on you, let him know in no uncertain terms, that you and FH are getting married whether he likes it or not. If he wants to continue having a role in FHs life, then he better start behaving with some more respect.

I am so sorry that you dont get along with your FIL's. Maybe we could start a club or something!!

Saying if i was in your fh's place- if anybody ever said anything bad about my fw , being overweight or anything i would knock the sh** out of him. Thats my wife to. She's going to be part of the family. I would tell future inlaw to get off his butt and do the work himself. I am so sorry your going through this. People can be such insensitive a**holes!
