[quote=Anonymous]Your personality is "bitchy" if you say horrible things about your ILs just because they don't feel the need to do small talk all the freaking time.

Wow!  You lost the argument so you throw down the B word.  How very classy of you!  Believe or not, I think I hit a nerve.  I don't talk "all the freaking time" and I haven't said anything horrible about my brother's wife's family ( so technically not my in laws)  '

If you had read my post you would have seen that I was trying to make polite conversation with people I didn't know at all.  It was at my SIL's baby shower and gasp!  I thought people would have light conversation which I was trying to do.  That is the point the OP was making that it is awkward when no one makes any attempt at being polite?

I consider myself in the middle of extroverts and introverts so I am can be chatty and I can be quiet when the need changes.  For example, at this event after my attempts for polite conversation died so both my mom and I shut up and quietly ate our lunch.  We talked about it among ourselves while driving home but, then we never talked about it again.  Not to my brother and not to my SIL.

I was sharing my experience with the OP to say that she is not alone.  I realize not everyone can have a personality and that's ok.  Maybe you are the same.  But, there was really no need to be mean.  I never was mean to my SIL or her family.  Maybe you should take a couple of deep breaths and realize not every story is about you.[/quote]
