Oh my god, your entire family sounds like a drama bomb.

You don't have to wait for her to officially tell you. Maybe she assumed that your mom would tell you and is feeling pissy that you haven't bothered to congratulate her, yet.

At any rate, it's been a month. Unless she told your mom NOT to tell you, I would just let it slip that your mom mentioned it because she assumed - OF COURSE - that SIL would have told you about the good news, too.

Mother has said she will not roll over and pay for another house. I think I'm upset about this latest slight because I have underlying feelings of dislike and disgust towards my brother and SIL who are entitled and think my Mom is their personal ATM. My Mom has finally had enough and is not giving them any more money.


Really OP? I would have never guessed

Grow up OP

+1 So much digging for drama and things to be angry about here...

I really wouldn't assume this is about you. You just aren't that important.


I am the same. Plus this SIL is pregnant, for god's sake.

You and your mom sounds like real gems! SIL hates your mom, brother is spineless and afraid of his wife. They only told your mom so she'll buy them a bigger house? Party was planned on purpose when your flight was still in air? Are your hearing yourself? I hope you are a troll, because this much hate on just one page is truly nuts.
