[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, I just wanted to say it's not my husband's parents that are the problem, just his dad (his parents are divorced). His mother and her family have never treated me like this. Hell, they invite me to events before my husband.[/quote]

NP here.  Your DH and his father both seem to have issues.  For one, the FIL knows better than to try to triangulate and cause problems, but it does not stop him from trying. Your FIL sounds like an immature ass for pointing out (much like a petulant child) that he "doesn't like you".  Does he stamp his feet and slam the door when he says it, for crying out loud?

Who the eff cares if the old bat doesn't like you or not, it has absolutely no bearing on you.  If I were you (and I am, partially) I would tell the FIL to grow up.  PPs are right - your DH can go see FIL by himself, if at all.    I am sorry you are going through this, OP.  In my DH's case, he has a hard time standing up to his abusive family because well, they are abusive.  If there is a fight to be had, I choose wisely, and stand up for myself - because if I wait for my DH to do it, it would not happen. I am not afraid of my IL's, nor should you be afraid of yours.  GL.
