[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is for your husband to handle.

He should tell his sister that he understands that she is not comfortable as a houseguest in your house, and that it would make sense for her and her husband to make other arrangements for their stay. You'd love to see them while they are in town though, how about X restaurant?[/quote]

THIS! She sounds overly sensitive, bonkers, both, or neither but I wouldn’t spend one more ounce of energy trying to figure out which. You need to lay this all out for your DH and get on the same page going forward: they stay at a hotel, you all meet at restaurants, etc. Why would she want to stay with you anyway if she’s so offended by everything you say/do?! Finally, try and not write her off forever. My BIL was incredibly rude to me for the first 5 years I was DH. Turns out their mother was borderline, all they had was each other, he saw me as a huge threat to their relationship blah blah Fast Forward 25 years and BIL and I are very close. Healing can happen…[/quote]
