Your sister can't male it a point to not invite your wife and expect you to come. If she has a problem with it, she needs to invite your wife.

His wife was invited. Can you frickers not read?

Fast forward to an upcoming event, my sister (also no photos) really wants us to attend and i KNOW it’s going to cause a rift if i don’t come but my wife just threw down that she wasn’t going to go because she wasn’t welcome (basically my sister said she didn’t trust my wife…now, my wife hadn’t done anything to warrant that comment but my sister said it )

So now… i have to tell my sister that we aren’t coming but make it sound as if it’s my idea as so i minimize the collateral damage (meaning…how my sister will react if she finds out that this is my wife’s decision)


You might as well be honest with your sister. She knows anyway, no matter what you tell her.

Why don’t you ask your sister why she doesn’t trust your wife.

Probably because the wife walks all over her brother.

You should lay down the law to them both. Tell sis she's going to sincerely apologize upon arrival and if not, you're out. Tell wife she's definitely going and what you expect. If both care for you, they can suck it up.

Met? Yes, plenty. Married? Just the one that met my requirements and whose requirements I met.

Correct answer. Could be she has a valid reason you need to know about.

Also, tell your wife to grow up. People go to things all the time that involve people they don't get along with. Even your wife.

Tell your sister the truth to keep your wife's name out of her mouth and if she has some issues to address with your family (you and your wife) you are willing to speak with her about it.

Neither here nor there, but I recommend never listening to anything someone who uses the phrase "keep someone's name out of your mouth" says. That's the trashiest, hoodrat shite I can think of. Close second is "put respect on my name". Just stop.

Correct answer. As a woman who struggles with her sister in law, you never know what your sister knows. Remember, if you have a good relationship with your family, meaning they aren’t druggies, thieves, or just generally bad people, chances are she is looking out for her brother. Not to say that your wife isn’t innocent, but there may be something to your sisters doubts.

Your sister said something about your wife that was unwarranted per you. When did this happen? Why did your sister say it and to whom did she say it? What did you do about it?

If your sister isn't nice to your wife, then you might explain to her that you are married, you love your wife, she was wrong and needs to apologize or you will not be attending her functions.

If your sister "really wants US to attend", then she needs to do what she needs to do to fix this.

Grow a pair and handle it. Believe me. I’m constantly amazed at how little drama happens when you just air it out and talk about it.

The majority of women (obviously not the good ones) live in and for CHAOS. It gives their life meaning. The more neurotic the woman, the more your family life will suffer. Your wife will continue to put you in this situation because it subconsciously turns her on and makes her feel alive. It's that tension women need to feel truly alive. You are just collateral damage. You could stroke out from all the fabricated stress and not a single frick would be given. She just doesn't care because it's ALL about her. Take note and live accordingly. Sorry, baw.
