[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG, op! I mean, talk about the lack of self-reflection! You sound like an uppity, insecure snobbish type who has no idea what values matter in grown-up life and families.
Your SIL might be this or that, but she sure doesn't seem stuck in the HS mentality you are clearly in and mistake it for "worldliness!"[/quote]

OP here. I am insecure? Oh please. I am not the one getting pissed over an exgf of my husband. I am not the one who makes her husband call his sister about his upset spouse. If she had beef with me, she should've been the one to call me. That's what adults do. So yes, tell me again how I am the one who's insecure.[/quote]

I love that insecure is the only thing you take issue with.

Apparently the words uppity and snobbish and lack of understanding values and misunderstanding worldliness do apply![/quote]

Just because OP doesn't want to hang out with SIL doesn't make her snobby. Her SIL sounds immature if anything. Why get in between sister and brother and not address her concerns with OP directly?

Just because someone is married to your sibling doesn't require you to be all buddy-buddy with them. And there's nothing "uppity" about it. People are different, you shouldn't force them on each other.[/quote]

It's come across very clearly that OP thinks she's better than her SIL, because she has a career and a more cosmopolitan way of life. No one is saying these two women should be friends. They are clearly different. But posters are reacting to the obvious lack of respect OP has for her SIL.

And completely separately, OP can be friends with the ex-wife, as long as she's discreet about it and doesn't share this relationship on any social media that her brother and SIL could see. OP has the right to be friends with whomever she wants, but respect for her family means some relationships must not be flaunted.

OP isn’t the one posting, it’s the ex. SIL follows the ex on social media.

Agree though, OP clearly thinks she’s better than SIL, her post drips with condescension. But SIL has no right to dictate her friendships. [/quote]
