[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you or DH show any interest in her life? It's a two way street. It's curious you categorize all of your ILs as selfish. I'd also take a look at your own attitude and behaviors.[/quote] +1 OP, are you remotely as interested in your SIL's life, as you expect her to be in yours? I gave up on my self-absorbed SIL. She had so many expectations about how others ought to help her, be interested in her life, etc. I (and others) tried and tried. But it was always a one-way street, so I gave up. Because I gave up being her cheerleader, she probably thinks I'm selfish, but the truth is, all relationships (including ones with in-laws) require reciprocal effort. It doesn't matter who has kids, who is sick - some degree of exchange is fundamental.[/quote]
