[quote=Anonymous]Hi everyone,
Just want to say thanks for listening to start.
I have posted in the family relationships board before about my in laws..mother/father in law and brother/sister in law.  They are hispanic. I am not..  They are the main source of conflict in my marriage.
I am having a very difficult time with my marriage and working through my anger and resentment at these people.  Brother in law is downright mean and ugly to me.  Sister in law takes advantage of whomever she can.  Mother in law is a very passive person...and husband tries to keep the peace.
We have three young children and are of course very stressed. . I am feeling so depressed and stuck, because I have so much resentment at my husband about how much money he gives my in laws and the fact that he very lamely stands up for me when his family is icky.  I understand he is in an uncomfortable situation....however I feel like I am never going to get him 100% on my side as a true husband.  It feels like him on one side halfway with his family, and me on my own, getting angry about things.
My husband doesn't question me about my spending.  I really appreciate this, because I do my best to be frugal...however, he gives and gives to his family for things that they should be responsible for, because he doesn't want to see them uncomfortable.   Of course, who does want to see their parents uncomfortable?  But feeling like the money I make goes to them for their dumb financial decisions because he is the oldest, responsible one, is making me so so so resentful and I don't even want to be married anymore.  Thanks for listening and advice.[/quote]
