You remember that movie Jennifer Lopez started in called Monster in law? Well I have one better and she's going to be my Sister in law. From day one of our engagement she as been nothing but opinionated, to the point of telling us not to have a big wedding because my FH parents cant afford to help. Mind you she's telling us this the first time we see the family after just getting engaged! The wedding is already in the double digits countdown for December and she's driving me nuts.
Just last month she voiced her opinion on my FH step dad family not coming to the wedding and how shameful that is. Mind you we are having a intimate dinner of 45 and his mom told us months ago his step dad said he didn't want to give out only a few invites because everyone would want to come. Well this turned into a huge blow out between her and my FH and she removed her family plus grandma from the wedding!(out of spite) Fast forward to this week we decided to send both his sisters a long text letting them know we listened to everyone request and extended invites to his step dad family. To which they declined to coming but thanked us for the invite. We expressed we hoped to move on from any ill feeling towards the wedding since we got our answer and want them at the wedding. She responds she will be attending the wedding but then hits us with needing to pay rent/mortgage to his parents. We live with his parents for the time being and help out paying cable, internet and supplying the house with items every week. His parents converted half their house into a studio apartment that they rent out, so our plan is to move in once its vacant and start paying them rent. Well his sister demanding that we pay a decent amount of rent/mortgage after the wedding while living out of a tiny bedroom. She states she will be discussing the rent amount with us and im like H#$% NO! We explained many times we will discuss this with his parents and thanks for the input but she keeps trying to tell us what she "Expects". My FH lets her try to be controlling and im not having it! We plan to pay them a little amount of rent till we move in next door and start paying real rent! Who wants to bet she removes her self from the wedding again because of this? I DO!
Anyone else have a monster in law sister? Please share!
Side note: Mom loves me! I help around the house and his parents don't except money from us ever! I make note to stock the house with food and anything else needed because of it. She's the older sister by like 12 years, my FH is 29.
