Anonymous wrote:My mother could not get away from work. My brother and SIL spend a lot of time at my parents house. Basically they stay there from Friday to Monday every week because my parents have a pool. I only see them two to three times a year. But every time I go I feel like SIL is a replacement for me. She walks around the house in a t shirt no pants. Just all around inappropriate. I think my mom is a little jealous too because she has mentioned things to me like SIL will call dad daily just to check in or to ask for advice. The thing is her parents are nearby and they have a pool too!

My brother is spending most of the vacation on his laptop he is working. So today we were at the beach and one of her kids got cranky so she left to put him to bed. My dad was upset that she did not tell him that they are leaving. He also Keeps commenting on her tan and appearance in general. I have never vacationed Witt her before but apparently she is a little uninhibited. She came back to the beach in a shirt And lace underwear because all her bikinis were wet. Just totally weirded out by the whole thing.
They are both gross. SIL shouldn't get a pass just because she is a woman.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Your dad is gross.

They are BOTH gross. What grown woman walks around in underwear and t-shirt in public or answers the door like that?

Okay, now it sounds like someone's exploring a little pervy fantasy.

My thoughts exactly. OP's dad is directing romantic/sexual attention at the SIL and OP describes her feelings as "jealousy".![]()
I am not jealous of their flirtatious relationship I am no sure how you infected that. I said I have had my share of jealousy toward my SIL before but it is unrelated to my dad. It's the sibling rivalry type of jealousy which strained my relationship with my brother. I do not want my dad to smack my ass or to flirt with me that's just gross. But I do agree with one of the posters that my overall jealousy maybe clouding my judgement and I am ascribing more meaning to their interactions then there actually is. My dad is in his 50s and my SIL is in her early 30s.
You said: "Like they have this bond that he and I should have. He is interested in keeping a conversation with her while mostly ignoring me."
Then you described sexual interactions.
