My dear you have to take it easy with him, just explain to him the consequences of involving his family in you private life. But let it not cause quarrel between two of you.

bringing your domestic affairs to a public forum is one way not to solve it.
trust me, many of the respondents are no saints and have husbands/wives that are far far worse than yours. no man is perfect. accept him for who he is.

But do you know the poster in person? Where do you go to for advice? She might be living in
an environment where she doesn't have 'real friends' close by. Where does she turn then?
I have found out that NL offers people good advice only it has to be sieved. You tend to get
varied opinions on the issue and that way decide what your next line of action will b.

I do hope you don't practice this kiss and tell. Tongue

You have to seat him down and explain your feeling to him, it is good to empty your mind on such issues, state your position or you will be in constant pain.  He is a matured person, am sure after that he will see reasons with you, i don't blame her sister, female.

This has to do with his up bringing,  he is obviously not an independent person,  the parents must have brought them up to be dependent on each other if not i don't see the reason why a married man will sought permission from his family in such insignificant issues.  Talk to him

Typical response from ladies - blame the man!

@Poster Your husband is supposed to be your best friend and chief confidante and vice versa. Why is that not the case here? I suggest you work towards that role as soon as possible.

@ poster,

U have a valid reason to be pissed, but take things easy. Try talk to your hubby and let him see your point. It's definitely not right to involve extended family members in your marital issues.

I think most reasons men involve their sisters in marital decision is the fear of being accused of neglecting their family, or worse, being tied to the woman's wrapper. Women detest that, but alas, they are their worse enemies.

@ topic

You can still do something since it's not his mum because in that case you wouldn't win the battle.

Even in law the privity of contract excludes an outsider from the agreement.

Am sorry to say this but your husband is not a MAN if he cannot make decisions without consulting his family. He is wuss if you know what I mean and his sister has got nothing better to do.

This is what happens when you marry kids as husband, when i say kid, i aint talking about age, but the level of development up there, come to think of it, how old is he?

Some men pretend i know, but if you are a smart woman you can easily detect a guy"s character, before marriage

well good luck in you family affairs Grin Grin dont forget to tell your daughters to look before they leap Wink

Totally unacceptable  Cheesy Even if he tells the sister and she suggests something he shouldn't actually tell you everything the sister says  Huh Dude knows you don't like such so why does he continue to do that? That's so annoying.
