Rant on my mind
My husband’s younger sister has never spoken to me or ever seemed happy for us in the 10yrs we’ve been married. I’ll never understand her issue with me and tbh I don’t care because in my early married years I let her get to me when she’d ignore me but she’d speak to her other brother’s wives. Family in the past have said to me she’s like this and can be a jealousy thing as she was close to my husband before he married me. What aggravates me now is I have a baby who she’ll happily hold and take him away but carry on disregarding me!!?? In my head I was thinking what is she doing? She’ll hold my son, try and bond with him and I’m not evil to take that relationship away but it’s definitely wrong if your going to still ignore that child’s mother even after all these years?! My husband says you can take our son back whenever you want, you are his mum and no one can say anything to that. At an event, she’d take my son from my husband or relatives while having a laugh with others and I thought I ain’t letting her think she can do this anymore. So I did take my son back and his sister pulled such a moody face and I couldn’t care less. I’ve given her chances to hold him but I won’t let her think I’m stupid or scared to approach her whenever she holds my child! Has anyone experienced this with any family members? What would you do? Because I’m not the most confrontational person
*****Edit: I have spoken to her in the past, always been polite and make conversation but she doesn’t reciprocate or seem interested. Many family members have seen this and told me not to take it personally as it’s a jealousy thing. She even stopped talking to my husband several years but I encouraged him to make effort and they now do talk. When I married my husband, I always respected his bonds with his family but if someone hates on me for no reason, I have chosen over the years to keep my distance and peace. It’s only now when she intentionally makes me uncomfortable by holding my child, having a laugh with her circle and ignore me. That’s something I won’t allow going forward
