      Buds, ur MIL oso v cartoon.. dun wan to stay and cannot imagine staying with the other SIL and yet made hell for u?!?!

      I cannot believe it either when she said it to my face... :whut:
      The crappy part is she would make it a point to please BIL and SIL
      when we visit them (go over their plc) or when they come over to visit
      us. I suppose since she hardly gets to see the children from BIL/SIL..
      she makes extra effort to pretend. My SIL knows and cannot be bothered.
      hapydino:
      she herself must have known she 吃定 you already..

      i got this nagging feeling that your HB might give in.. yes, it will be YOUR home and his home (but the IL coming along).. i hope i am wrong!!
      I hope i'm wrong too... but like you i have the same naggin & biting
      feeling these past few weeks already. Aniwaes, I'm still keeping my
      fingers crossed till the eventual crunch time.
      hapydino:
      cuz doesn't make sense to go thru all the trouble of selling, house searching, moving out to bring along both IL.. esp with the new baby, where got space!!
      Yes. A real waste of time.

        Buds,

        you are really caught!

        do you think things may change (even if you are staying together again, but this time, its YOUR HOUSE) if buds hub put his feet down and talk to his parents that YOU and ONLY YOU ARE THE MISTRESS OF THE HOUSE and YOU WILL HAVE THE FINAL SAY in EVERY THING AND ANY THING?

        I think you also need to sit buds hub down and talk to him about this. like you say, damn if you are and damn if you are not… so why not charge at the problem, and make buds hub see your pointS and get his parents to sit down with him and you too that YOU ARE NOW IN CHARGE? that your PIL ARE NOT TO RUIN YOUR LIFE if they were to stay with you again?

            If hubs has not dared to say i was right even when i blatantly was for the

            past ten years... it is very unlikely that he would even mouth those words
            to dictate to his parents... especially his mom! Even if it IS OUR HOUSE now.

            You are right. I'm definitely caught. And so is hubs. 😞

            BIL & SIL have been having the time of their lives and i am very sure they
            prefer to keep it that way. Un-intruded... peaceful... and their own personal
            space where they can be themselves. BIL even went to the extent to
            say that it would inconvenience him having them around... He's talking
            about his own parents you know? So, I'm the only bad one? :roll:

              Buds,


              pardon me if i am wrong… i think i read past posts that such logistics have been sorted out when u decided to bite the bullet and sell off the current house?? and it has been made known the IL are not coming along to the new place??

                Yes, we have... though there still are things to be done. Some works
                incomplete but it's fine. Good thing is we're outta there. The last time
                i had to endure her black face was when the movers were doing their job.

                That's another story... sigh... :roll: Reali sianz.

                I'm halfway through decorating & arranging my classroom. :please:

                Already have parents reserving places for lessons. 😉

                FIL told my DD2 that he doesn't mind not having a room. :whut:

                    Yes. That was what was pre-arranged... promised... and yet again unfulfilled
                    not surprisingly. It HAS been made known that they are to stay on their own
                    and in the presence of MY parents and siblings.

                    So far, in the history of the last 10yrs... promises to them are meant
                    to be broken. 😞

                      No you're not mean.. cause i DO mind a lot!

                      I honestly cannot see anymore good from my ILs anymore.
                      They've crossed the line already.

                        ur parents and siblings were around? wow! oso good, den at least they are aware of this matter and your husband would more or less keep to his promise, to you and to your family members…
