Hell to the no no no no no.   You only tell her stuff you want to get back to your husband.  You have to play that card very fucking close.   Remember blood is thicker than water, she is going to run and tell it no matter what she says.

I have no idea Undecided Depends on how well we get along, how much tight of a bond we create
It's the reverse in my case, my bro's girlfriend (my sister-in-law to be), we tell each other almost everything

How are you sure she's telling you everything? She may also cease to tell the day your brother will say I do.

Yeah i know, i don't know if i can form the bond i have with her with anyone.
I think it's because of the love i have for my bro and how happy i see he is with her (you'll have to see them to understand the bond they have) - that i understood the person she is, so it was easy for me to bond to her.
I don't operate by the blood is thicker than water thing Undecided Besides, there's nothing that my brothers will hear about me that would shock them Wink We are all pretty close

The relationship is always one sided anyway. She'll have a lot to lose if you decide to  flip the coin on her one day.

My sisters-in-law are very close to my sisters and I. I tell you, If we (my siblings and I) didn’t all look alike…I mean seriously, eerily alike, people would think my parents had all girls and the guys are the in laws. IMO if everybody knows and understands there are boundaries that shouldn’t be crossed; I see no reason why there should be a problem.

That aside, I don’t understand why some sisters feel the need to compete with their brothers’ wives. Jeebus! They are too busy minding how the wife served them water in a slightly dirty cup on a silver tray even though she knows they like the gold tray, they don’t realize their husband is sleeping with the young nubile thang down the street until he after he’s run off with her. Then they turn around and blame the wife…Oh she brought her ogun idi le to their family, before she came divorce was not even in their dictionary, her family on the other hand, had divorce 10 generations ago and then they. . .

Wait…what was the question again? Oh right my answer is. . . Yes absolutely.

I think it's because we women have this inbuilt jealousy thing that is causing disunity among us. Women can form forceful air tight groups but it wouldn't last because of the stupid jealousy factor over trivial things including fashion. Some women make it a habit to check out their brothers wife and how she spends her money on herself, what for?

Couldn't have said it better!

My mom is always telling us that the wife can sit on her head and she won't have a problem as long as she makes her son happy and that is what we should focus onhis happiness. What  some don't get is people respond to love with love (except they have mental issues and that's a whole other story) and hate with hate. Some sisters get all territorial about their brothers, you wonder if they think they are in the wild west fighting a turf war.

Please, It is not that serious.

people are bound to protect their own too. I won't be sitting quiet if my brother is dating a snake that masked herself as a lady. Men do not have that sixth sense to discover a trap but we women do as long as the jealousy factor is taken out.

I remember on of my brother's friend BTW he's brain is not catching up with his age tell me thatwith the bond i have with my brothers, if this particular brother of mine had a girlfriend, i would be jealous and territorial - homeboy please rolling eyes - i told him rofl then you obviously don't get the love thing of siblings.  Am even closer to his younger bro than he is.
As to focusing on his happiness, i couldnt agree more.

What does it matter if she isn't telling me everything? It's not like we are doing trade by batter with the information. I don't need to sit down to count the words to know I've told my sisters in law more than they have me. . . why? I am a talker.

My 3rd oldest brother's wife hardly talks but she listener, does it mean she's delibaretely hiding something from me or she is mentally taping everything I say, to be filed and used later as a weapon? No. She's is not a talker,  besides, what are am I hiding? I mean if I have a secret that could potentially  harm me if it gets out,  then I deserve everything I get for telling someone else.


I think the whole "oh don't trust your sister in law" is a product of the US vs. THEM mentality but the thing is. . . there is no THEM, she is married to your brother, that makes her US.

my problem has always been that my brothers girlfriends have tried to come in between my bother and my relationship.  They try as hard as they may but nothing will come between us and no matter what i will always have a place in my brothers heart.  So that being said i don't tell them bitches shit and i don't take shit from them, i just watch them roll out one by one.  Peace bitches!!!!

Okay, this a different issue,  of course no sister should sit back and watch their brother fall into the hands of Jezebel. However, we are talking about the first surge of jealousy(Still don't understand why) Huh and pissing contests some women get into the moment their brother brings a girl home. They don't have any reason not to trust her but they've already started building walls. How do you think she'll react? Build her own walls of course and soon you have bricks colliding with bricks. I say let her give you a reason before you go Kung Fu Panda on her behind.

I think it's the jealously thing that is synonymous with women. Even the married sister in laws tend to build walls from the get go and wait for you to push down the walls either by force or cunningly. It's even worse when you are dating the only son, his mother, sisters ,female maternal  cousins will be all over you like  bee on honey. That's why most Naija chics these days don't fancy only sons whose mother is alive coupled with the usual gazillion  sisters that will always wait for you with a spear.
