[quote=Anonymous]Are you me? One of my SIL's (brother's wife) is exactly like this. Have really tried to get to know her, reach out, done lots of things for her, but she's just cold. She has no interest in talking about anything that doesn't include herself at the center. She's not loud and obnoxious at all, and is soft-spoken. I'm an total introvert so I get that sometimes introverts can come across as cold, but she isn't that. She just doesn't try. Doesn't have any interest in being an aunt to any other kids in the family, doesn't even care to talk about/to anyone else. If it isn't her appearance, her kids, or her house, she doesn't care. I gave up making any effort. I don't like her. Just don't really engage with her. I think she's just a very self-absorbed and snobby person. It's sad, because there are plenty of ILs in our family/extended family, and we all get along. Not perfectly, but they're all pretty nice people that at least make a tiny bit of effort. Trying makes all the difference. This SIL does not. Not even a little bit. [/quote]
