[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can't change other people. For whatever reason, my SIL hates mates me too, and has wedged a divide between my brother and I. I did a lot for them, especially when they had their first child - I was there day and night for weeks. I did anything and everything to help them out, including making meals, running errands, watching the baby so they could get some sleep, cleaning up. I don't expect much in return but a hand once in a blue moon. A little kindness. That's it.

I've never said a bad word about her to anyone, except here, anonymously on the internet. She's passive aggressive and insecure, and indirectly snide. Leaves me out of "family" e-mails. But I ignore it all for the sake of "family." For whatever reason, she's discouraging my brother from talking to me (even though I've never ever said anything bad about her to him).

Some people are just truly awful. You have to live your own life.[/quote]

Wow, are you me?  This is exactly my relationship with my SIL (brother's wife) right down to helping them with the baby.  Leaves me out of "family" emails, too.  I ignore it for the sake of my nephew, who I adore.  I just try to be the bigger person and live my life.  Try not to let her get to you, OP.[/quote]

They probably think you are too instrusive in their lives.[/quote]
