[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the other people is BIL and yes agree my husband sucks for leaving mento deal with this alone. we've gone rounds about it multiple times. God forbid he upsets sister by calling her out. He has before and she stonewalled him. [/quote]

“Called out” FOR WHAT? She doesn’t like you—not required to. She’s not interested in you—not required to be. She answers your questions. She’s giving you cues to leave her alone. LEAVE HER ALONE. Pretty freaking simple.

Talk to the others, bring a book or some knitting or a magazine or something. Get a hobby that isn’t being a slobbery Labrador chasing after a cat.[/quote]

You have to admit though that sil is rude and this would make holiday visits very uncomfortable. Op said that the family is small so put yourself in her place and imagine being ignored for an entire meal at a table with only 6 or so people. Her parents in law suck as they should call out sil for the rude behavior. I have a kid on spectrum and expect better behavior.[/quote]

OK, SIL sounds rude. Can you admit that OP sounds pretty rude? Here’s OP in her own words:

”He definitely has fault in the dynamic.[b] I’m sure I’ve given dirty looks and been snotty back in the early days. Once kids came along I tried to be more cautious with showing my annoyance with the behavior and just try to start new but she def holds a grudge.[/b] Her husband has said as much to my husband in a previous convo.”

No winners here. OP can, however, ***stop playing the game,*** which sounds like a better strategy than pushing and pushing and pushing for something that ain’t gonna happen.[/quote]
