    Hi their I

    know exactly how you feel. I am going to something similar to what your going through with your sister in law. My sister in law is just the devil she has done so many things to my brother to my family including my parents and sisters. She used to be my best friend even her sister used to be my best friend but I had to close the doors on them totally and my sister husband had to do it as well because he don't want anyone adultery person at the house. So we all had to take action for it before she keeps destroying us. I say girl that you should think about doing the same trust me it feels good cause all the pain and suffering goes away. I say for now I will not let her at the house maybe down the line if my brothers forgives her and if she intend to change in which we all know that she won't then I'm going to step up and forgive myself and then forgive her. Cause if God did forgave us for our sins and had die for us at the cross who are we not to forgive but for now I have to have some space cause if I don't have it I will confront her and brake her in to million of pieces and I pretty much don't want to be the evil person that i used to be and I have children that I don't want to teach them the wrong things in life so I am trying to avoid things from happening and this is the smarter way of doing things.

    Girl think first on what your going to do if this is what you want and if this is going to make all of you happy and feel better then you go through with it and stop letting her get in between you and keep destroying you you don't deserve it good luck

    Sympathy goes out to you. I had three Sister-in-Laws and they treated me so bad. I was never included, no matter how hard I tried. They even excluded my Sweet Children. My Sweet Mother-in-Law noticed how they acted and always gave me the support and structure. When she would go visit them, they would be so mean to her. Well my story ends up , with the meanest , being dead. So now I have two left. The other one, her husband died too, so now we never see or hear from her. I have one left and I am trying to endure her and she has no one left in her pack. If your Mother-in-Law and Father-in-Law are good to you, don't drop out of the Family Functions. If you drop out, then the Sister-in-Law has won. She wants to make you drop out. Don't cater to her. Stand firm and be strong. Ask God to protect you from her. Put on your shield and armor. Let her know that she will not win.

    If anyone should tell her to that she is no longer welcomed in your home, is your husband..It is his sister and it might have a better impact if he does it. Also if you did it would make it worse with her. If I was you , I would ignore her and not even acknowlege that she is in your space. She will get tired of you ignoring her. Besides be the better person and don't stoop to her level.. Good luck

    I know you probably have been mistreated by her but what's worse is stooping down to her level. When she makes a remark about you simply ignore her, if she is rude make a tactful response that makes her look like the fool and you the hero. People like that usually gets what coming to them. I imagine I would tell her she is acting like a woman who is interested in her own brother. Of course she would rebut that then seriously I would ask her if that is not the case if she love him she would want to see him happy and not try to dislike you.

    You did the right thing having your husband talk to her and if you dont want her in your home your husband should tell her if he agrees. As bit a pain as she might be to you, this is his family and forcing him to cut her off is not really totally fair. You just need to make sure you husband has your back.

    Good luck

    i say you dont talk to her anymore. you have your hubby talk to her from now on. if she truly hates you and yo uhate her then why would you want her in your house for another second. i mean honestly your hubby should be on your side. dont let her in your house. dont let her anywhere near her. also dont stop going ot family gatherings, dont stop because of her. i say the next time something is going on go and dont say a word to her, dont say a thing. try that and see what happens. if she comes up to you then just look at her and not say a word. if she starts to yell at you nd makeyou look stupid just keep smiling and dont say a word. i know i keep saying that but honestly it will work, everyone will see her making a fool of herself and you will look like a real woman who can control herself. also, i have learned that when you take one of your own family memebers to the party nothing will happen and the party will be quite pleasant! it works because then your sis in law wont want to look stupid in front of other people, she wont want to make a big deal in front of your family, because she doesnt know what your family memebers are capable of. think about it, you want to have a peacful family and this is going to help if you take my advice. good luck

    Source(s): it worked for me!!! not with a sis in law but with different family memebers.

    Anyone who tries to disrupt your home life or purposefully cause you stress, is not worth your time.

    My mother and aunt had the same exact realtionship as the one you describe. Finally, my mother broke all ties with her and my family has been more peaceful.

    Just because she is family does not mean you have to put up with a vindictive, mean-spirited person.

    Get rid of her, and I wish you well.

    Before you tell her that make sure it's O.K with your husband. But think about it. Telling her she's not welcome is going to break apart her and her brother which hill make her hate you even more. And her par rents aren't exactly going to be thrilled.
