[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]She might not know exactly what you’re getting at? If you’re not otherwise close, she might think you’re fishing.[/b] In general, it sounds nice and thoughtful, but having accidentally bumped a hornet’s nest with my SIL, I now know my intentions don’t mean squat compared with how actions/words are interpreted.[/quote] This is an incredibly sad way to treat people who are just trying to be nice. My SIL does this so I just dropped the rope and stopped even trying. [/quote] Oh please, it is all dependent on the relationship. There are people who love to discuss the tragedies of people they don't like even their inlaws and families. Don't be naive. [/quote] Oh please yourself. You are being a jerk and jumping on my ass and I am tired of this BS on this board. That's not the case here. Op sent a simple text to let SIL she was thinking of her. God forbid. This board is always quick to jump on anyone for being too needy to want a better relationship with their in-laws, for expecting to be considered family (the nerve) or overstepping or relishing in SILs misery by attempting to communicate concern to a SIL who might need a pick me up during a tough time. Sorry OP this is what you will get from this board even with nice intentions. Don't seek actual advice here. They just love to tear people down instead. [/quote]
