[quote=Anonymous]I'm in a family group text with my DH, his 2 younger sisters and the husband of one of the two sisters.

In 2020, at the start of the pandemic, one of my SILs asked a question on the family group chat. It was about a family matter, related to their elderly mother, my MIL. In reply to this I expressed my opinion and said it was a really bad idea, because of x, y and z. I gave clear reasons why I thought it was a bad idea.

Both SILs got upset. SIL1 rang my husband to complain about me. A few weeks later she blocked me from messaging her privately. Up until this time both my SILs hadn't said anything to me directly (verbally).

Three months later my DH texted BIL about something unrelated and mentioned that I was still blocked by SIL (his sister). BIL replied angrily to DH and said I had caused them stress and then went on to list my failings and shortcomings as a family member and a person. All of this in a text.
DH then rang BIL and they had an argument.

Fast forward to Christmas 2020 and SIL1 gets in touch with me again as if nothing had happened.

I saw SIL1 again at a family function recently (first time we saw each other in person since late 2019). She was cordial but we didn't really talk. I haven't seen BIL, her husband, since all of this happened.
I am still on the family group text.

Both SILs have never talked to me about all this in person.[/quote]
