IL ranty rant

[lauranicole91]

I wish we could just rid ourselves of them completely. I just don't understand how they are so non-confrontational and so good at pretending nothing has ever happened. I think huge blow ups and talking things out is healthy for any and all relationships.

Neither BIL or MIL bothered is after the carbon monoxide bullshit but FIL called DH a few days ago. Wes called him back and all his dad said was "just checkin in with you. I'll let you get back to work" that was the whole conversation.

Little SIL has been blowing up Wes's phone all morning now. Saying they found more presents for us/Peyton from christmas(oh yippee...). Then us moving next month got brought up and she/his parents were mad that they had no idea we had put a deposit down on a new place and how we never keep them in the loop anymore. "Mama daddy and I really don't appreciate you never telling us anything about your life" really?! Maybe because the way you react when we do. Back the fuck off!!

They are acting completely oblivious to the fact that they were throwing insults of our parenting just a few days ago...they have no idea why we are giving the cold shoulder.

She also went on to say they don't see us enough and are mad that they've never gotten to babysit and all this bullshit.

Ugh I just can't take this anymore. I'm exhausted with their insults and mind games.

ETA: please understand there is way more to this tension than just the most recent argument. We have never been friendly with them in the 6 years we've been together. Ever.

That sucks, I'm sorry. I have shitty ILs too; nothing compared to what you're going through but I feel your pain!
