How to deal with in-laws you don't like/don't like you?
Since the holidays are coming up, this got brought up.
Now I don't actually dislike any of my boyfriend's family, but who I absolutely loathe is my boyfriend's brother's girlfriend.
TL;DR - When my boyfriend was still in university he started renting a place with his brother, which was perfectly fine. Then his brother's girlfriend moved in, not paying rent or anything. She basically lived off my boyfriend for free. Didn't contribute financially, made messes, stole things from him, was just an overall (insert every rude word in the book here),etc. then she started throwing these huge cocaine parties, cheating on my boyfriend's brother, sleeping with people for coke. It was a mess. So I told her one day to stop living off my boyfriend to do that. Contribute to rent or something at the least and don't bring drugs like that around him, especially because the people get violent. She has hated me since. Then my boyfriend started telling her that too. It turned into a giant mess and finally one day she decided to try to beat me up. So, that was the last straw for my boyfriend and he moved out.
Now every time there's a holiday, obviously I get invited to my boyfriend's parents house. Which would be great, if I didn't have to see someone that attempted to physically harm me and my boyfriend. And now they're doing a gift exchange, which I had to opt-out of because I can't handle giving her something. I don't owe her anything and she doesn't deserve anything after what she did. Not to mention, now my boyfriend is involved in that, which I'm not impressed about. I can't tell him not to, he can do what he wants, but I still don't like it. I feel so bad. I ignore her as much as possible, but now I feel like opting out of things like that and not attending events because she's there leaves a bad impression on them. I just don't know how to deal with this?
