Re: FMIL Rant
That's BS... since she went shopping on her own she can find the best price on her own!
But at least she found a dress... my FMIL still doesn't have one yet... I don't even know if she's really looked yet...![]()

Re: FMIL Rant
okay - first off - i'm sorry, but now that you vented - what are you going to do?
my suggestion - give her some websites and let her do the work....tell her you are just too busy to have the time to do it....
or - suck it up and do it for her....a small price to pay to shut her mouth!
not an easy decision either way you slice it!

Agreed 100%... I lose either way. If I don't do it she will B****out my FH and if I do then she is walking all over me. Nothings worse then listening to your FMIL complain. I'd rather hear nails on a chalkboards.
I hear you LOUD & CLEAR....
we came to the realization that his parents had an issue with us living together before marriage.
Once we were married, things have changed DRAMATICALLY with his mom & me....they're actually nice and i don't consider seeing her as much torture as i used to...

Re: FMIL Rant
OMG - i'm sorry!!!
Thankfully - Dave's sister has two kids - so we don't have that pressure from her. My mom on the other hand....she hasn't said much TO me - but she has to others....
The only way we could equate the change was the living together thing...but also - we lived together for 5 years before we got married...it's not like we were together for a minute...but whatev...it's dealable now...(for the time being - though tomorrow, it could start to suck again, she's kinda nutty)....

Re: FMIL Rant
I would tell her that you have enough on you right now, that she'll have to do the research. Since she has the maker/style info she should just search for it online.
I feel your pain![]()
.......
FH's Mom wanted all the details on what my Mom was wearing, what dresses the BM's were wearing (styles/colors, ect). I invited her to come along to the bridal salon I used when my girls were getting measured and picking their gowns, and my Mom and Nana were looking that day also. Her response was 'I'm not interested.'![]()
That made me really p'od![]()

Re: FMIL Rant
I wouldn't be too upset that she didn't bring you along for the shopping trip, but I don't think its right for her to ask you to hunt for a lower price for her.

Re: FMIL Rant
Rant away ! do not shop around for her - if she can shop by herself she can shop around by herself -you simply do not have the time to shop around for her dress.

Re: FMIL Rant
I was scheduled to go with my FMIL and FSIL to find her gown but I had to work that day, I asked if we can reschedule it but they didn't...I was a little upset because I wanted to be there to 'bond'. Then I got over it...she found a dress she loved and thats all that mattered.
In your case, I would kindly say that you are very busy at this time and you feel the best thing is to buy it from that store. Why doesn't FH sister do it?
