I just got out of the car

[psychmom]

These are the same people who you're leaving your kids with at night. Nice.

[wowhead]

Sorry your ILs are assholes. You and H need key phrases for when you need to escape. We have used "I need a coffee" for years. That means I need a few minutes to myself or I'm going to explode.

OK, I am dying to know their background since so much of this is said to be cultural.

Why would you exit the car with no money at a casino? ATM card? Anything?

I just had to get the f out and away. It was spur of the moment.
I assume he's going to show them the business and come back and get me.

Or maybe it was their master plan to get rid of wife #2, smuggle the kids out of the country, and marry your H off to yet another woman. They are crafty, you have to give them that.

I am so confused, are you not American? Did he leave his first wife for you? What is going on?

Well, then that's super cool that you force your unwitting 6 year old to spend the night with them. You couldn't even take 45 minutes of their company. You need to do some re-evaluating of . . . yourself.

[catwithspots]

I read your previous post and now with this one...I feel for your children.

Lorelai said it best.

[saucyc]

OK, so your husband was married to his cousin?

ETA: I am just trying to figure out the dynamics here, I am sorry your ILs are being shitty.

[snickers]

I don't think I know the back story here, but I hope he comes back to get you soon

[Deleted]

I've read that post a few times over and keep concluding that your H was married to his 1st cousin. Truth?

[poppyseed]

What?

Have you officially lost it?

[CurlyQ284]

I usually give people the benefit of the doubt but...

LOL! Ok.

In some countries it is accepted. I know a couple from Pakistan who are also first cousins. The kids have no third arms or anything but they all look quite similar, lol.

[papie]

I hate when I can't figure out which part of your post is made up and which part is true, lol. But I do feel bad for your IL visit. At least they aren't staying in your house!

[saucyc]

Tell me if I have this right:

You were married 10 years ago to a Lebanese man who was previously married to his cousin. Your in-laws don't like you because you are American and they were giving you shit, so you got out of the car and left yourself stranded at a casino with no money?

And she forces her children to spend the night there when one of them doesnt want to because they favor her other child.

Thank you guys, this is awesome.
You all are correct!
They are very wonderful grandparents and do try very hard.

They had just stayed in the parking lot and talked and now we're all at the ranch.
I'll take pictures if you want.

Marrying cousins is no big deal in Lebanon, very chic.

I want to see your elephant fountains again. They are so awesome.
