Question - (6 March 2013) 2 Answers - (Newest, 6 March 2013)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

i have been married for nearly 2 years. only have 1 big problem and that is my husbands uncle. he is an extremeley manipulative and jealous person. he is so spiteful and i know my husband does not like him to much. he has tried to do everything to cause arguements between me and my husband. i am forced to stay sometimes at this uncles house as my husband just wont stand up to him. i am at breaking point as i am furious at having to speak and visit someone i really cant stand. i have told my husband that if he wants to go and see him fair enough but i dont have to pretend anymore. i feel that my marriage is on the line now and t this is exactly what his uncle wants as my husband used to live with him before and his uncle used him for money etc... what can i do. as i know im going to really lose it and i will end up swearing and having a nig arguement with his uncle. his uncle is trying everything to make arguements between us.

So_Very_Confused agony auntif you don't like him and husband does not like him, do not see him.

just because he's a blood relative does not mean you have to be friendly with him.

CindyCares agony auntOk, mine is probably a stupid question , but, if your husband does not like his uncle, why does he go visit and stay with him ? There are people who cut off their parents too ( not that it's a good thing, it's a sad one, yet it happens ) so why bothering about an unloved and unlovable uncle ?

If your husband though HAS to go visit him occasionally, it would not be easier if he'd go a bit less maybe and you just stayed home the times he goes ? Why do you have to be there too ?
