Repost from BHB Issue w/ a member FFIL...

Is a long but I need outside opinion.
I need help, I had this problem w/ the cousin of FH a couple of weeks after we got engaged.
At the begining of the engagment FH and I thought of having a very small wedding (town + restaurant) w/ only parents and brothers and sisters. One afternoon I got to his house and my FMIL and FSIL was there (she got married a year a go) and when they ask what we had thought of doing I explain, while this happen FH little sister arrive and start to hear the conversation and start complaining that that means that she cant even bring a date and that a lot of people are going to feel ofended b/c that is not fair blablabla.... as she start blabling I went outside w/ my other FSIL and she went out and told me that she knows that FH is only doing it like that b/c I told him too (in other way that i was manipulating him) at all this I decide to leave and I cry b/c I felt so offended so I called FH he got mad and talt to his little sister. Well aparently everything was ok so I went to FH house to watch a movie (in that time he lived w/ his mom and little sister) well we weren't in his room not even for 5 min when one of his cousin arrive to the house scream and knocking on his door that why she wasn't invited to the wedding and that not let me manipulate him and a lot of other things that I can't post including the F word in between. apparently FH's little sister had called her and tell her about the early conversation (she liked to gossip ALOT) and that is how she found out. FH told everyone off (is the only time that I had seen him mad). The next day the little sister apologize but the cousin in all this time haven't even say sorry. I really don't feel like invinting her to the wedding b/c of the way she react I am right on not inviting her or not.
Please opinion
And sorry for the long vent.

i think I would give it time and see what happens... she was def. wrong for reacting that way. If you spend the next year not speaking to her after that then i wouldn't invite her. You are not obligated to invite anybody, What does FH want to do about his cousin??

FH say that what ever I want to do it's he respect my opinion b/c that was completely out of order for her to act like that.

i'm so sorry youre put into that position. I kidda know how you feel with the family wanting this kidda wedding and you wanting something else. I'm struggling with that myself. I think you should just talk to ure FH and discuss what you will do. After all it's your wedding so it's your decisions. As for the cousin she's just over reacting and needs to learn that this wedding is not about her.

Definitely give it time. Invitations don't go out for a very, very long time. Who knows what will happen between now and then. Sorry you're going through this.

Ok I'm going to be honest on how i feel okay?? Do not get mad at me...


I feel like this...THIS IS YOU and UR FH's Wedding. I would be totally hurt and pissed if that happened to me. It was wrong for them to ask what u feel like doing then turn around and jump on u for what u two want to do. U didnt derserve that. People forget that a wedding is about u two not what they want or the family even though two families are to unite as one. But I really feel that if u do not want to invite her DONT...she hasnt apologized yet either...she's a cousin not a sister.

Thats the main reason why my fh and I are planning our wedding before the big proposal.

I pray everything gets better darling !

That is what I been thinking, TY for your opinion a needed the opinion from someone from outside.
I know their still a long time from the invitation to go out but she (the cousin) live in the same town as FMIL and visit her often and I want thinks clear from the begining, I dont like to be that type of people that act nice on front and then doing something else from behind.

Yeah kind of two faced thing. I understand. Well she needs to apologize because she was totally wrong. There is a long time til we send out invites...but we should have a good idea of to who invite because we're paying per plate. So it's better to sort things like that out now!

I think that you should tell FH that you feel the cousin should apologize because it spoke volumes about how she feels about you... then if she still doesn't I would still invite her to the wedding because it seems like not inviting her would cause even more problems for you... just ignore the b**ch... that is awful...I'm sorry you had to deal with that!
