Hello everyone.. I have a problem that is about my sister..

It really affects me and i feel so bad for her !

My sister has a mother in law or should i say a devil in law... She has done nothing but try to ruin my sisters marriage.. Caused a million problems between my sister and her husband...

About a year ago she suddenly blocked my mother and sister from her phone for no reason and after 8 month my sister sent her a message to reconcile with her and my mother forgave her..

We are very nice people and my mother is such a shy and polite person.... Anyway this issue is really bothering me because even after whats happened she is still not good to my sister and my sisters husband cant stand up to his mother..

I think he is frightened of his mother.... They have a daughter together and now my sister is pregnant..

I always secretly wish they can divorce so we can be rid of his mother and maybe him too! Thank you all for reading..this issue is really eating me up

aunt honesty agony auntIt is up to your sister how she handles her mother in law. I totally understand why you are worried, but your sister probably loves her husband therefore she probably does not want to get divorced. She is pregnant so be a good sister, listen to her when she needs to talk, help her out and forget about his mother, don't allow her to win.

It is really up to your sister's husband to defend your sister.

I'm sure they don't live with the mother in law so it should be fine. Just ignore her. At some point you and your sister needs to realize that this negative woman can't ruin your lives. Just go on and be happy and do the things that make you happy. When ever the mother in law contacts you, just small talk her and don't let her comments bother you both. Brush it off with a laugh. The mother in law will never change, but you and your sister can change your reactions to her actions. That's the only way to improve the situation.
