Thanks for your input. I truly appreciate. It all started in my ist year of marriage when I had my baby and still in school. My mum came to look after baby and few months later, I took in again of which I left baby with mum while I continued schooling. They accused my hubby of allowing my mother to be the only one taking care of baby and not them. That in their tradition, mothers of wife have no say and influence in family affairs. This was a major issue and still is. While in my culture, nothing of such as we see nothing wrong here. They disrespect my mother till date because of this. I have caught one twice giving my mother bad eye. 2ndly, a distant relative came with high risk pregnancy with fibroid and I asked she comes to seek medical help and go back, when she came, it was war in my house that it is forbidden in their culture for a pregnant woman to come to another man's house which she's not pregnant for. She later left but loads of issues after this. My in-laws come anytime even with their children .Every other week and weekend is in my house. My husband will not take us out unless they are around. Hubby's lil sis but older than me lived with me for 5 years and that's where the whole wahala persisted with her giving information. I began to see their collaboration through her and frustrated me to the very letter. We had a fight and hubby asked her to leave. They all ganged up not to talk to me or hubby again which hubby is feeling alienated. Hubby said his position is threatened in his family and I am the cause. I took care of his older sister who had complication in her surgery for 6 months in my house, non of them came to visit her in my house nor call me. Rather , She got well and told others that I didn't give her food that was why when one called her and she said she was in a restaurant to eat. Hubby and I had issue on this. I am so fed up . I work and I contribute significantly in the family. They see me as the one who eats their brother's money alone. Hubby takes great financial care of them. I am just tired. |
Please pardon me for using a new moniker as I am quite known here. Friends and family, I really need your sincere and matured input on this matter. I have been married for over 10 years with 4 kids. My hubby is a great guy save for this area that we will never agree. I have sisters-in-law who have vowed never to give me peace despite all my efforts to give peace a chance. Most of them are all older than him and sort of influences his decision that affects my marriage greatly. From the beginning, it has been if I am in their good books, my marriage will work and I will be happy, then if not, reverse will be the case. My husband has refused to see all their manipulations and always tell me that he grew up with them and so he is indebted to them. I have never tried to cause a separation between them but they usually see me as an intruder to their unity. For these 10 years plus, it has always been the issue, I have begged, used gifts, apologised ,sought for forgiveness from them for sins I have not committed just for peace to reign yet, the next problem will be bigger than the previous. Some are married while some are not. The worst that affect me most is the married ones with children. Now, they all don't talk to me and this is affecting my marriage. Hubby gives me cold shoulders, no sex asking me to mend the relationship with his sisters of which I am fed up with the whole thing and I don't want to beg again. My mind is made up that everyone should stay on their own. Hubby is the only male, seems to be the only one doing well and parents are no more Please what do I do? Mods front page please for more inputs. Updated Thanks for your input. I truly appreciate. It all started in my ist year of marriage when I had my baby and still in school.
