My brother-in-laws wife?

I know she is busy with her kids but I called her to wish her a happy birthday and her husband told me, I'll tell her to call you when she get off her cell phone. She never did, so I called her again a few hours later and she didn't answer the phone but I left a message wishing her a happy birthday. So I just called her this morning and she was on the other line. I have a feeling she is mad at me. I called her around 3:30 yesterday to wish her a happy b-day. She tends to get mad at a lot of things I do because I am not the way she wants me to be. She doesn't understand my OCD or depression. She can not accept me for the way I am. It seems like every winter she calls me and yells at me for whatever it is that is bothering her at her at the time. She is the one person in my life that causes me the most stress. I'm good at dealing with people but with her it's like impossible to reason with her. She thinks things should be her way or a certain way and if you don't follow her beliefs then she gets mad at you. I'm tired of calling her to wish her a happy birthday because I feel she is mad at me for something. How many times am I suppose to call her? Her birthday was yesterday. I didn't stop over at her house because she told me her kid and husband were both sick. I went on to facebook and she thanked everyone for wishing her a happy birthday so she had the time to go on the web. I don't know what's going on.

    I'm sorry you're having to deal with that...You did your part...I would have left the message and that be it..if she wants to contact you she can..but in my opinion you did your part.

    Know what?

    You're the reason she causes you the most stress. You worry too much about what other people think and go off on a tangent when there may be nothing more to it than she hasn't gotten the message or made time to call you.

    And stop calling her and wishing her a happy birthday. Why don't you just go on about your business. If she gets in touch with you then hooray. Other than that you're foolish to concern yourself with her and matters as inconsequential as this.

    You are creating your own drama honey. You call once and wish a happy birthday and leave it at that. You were waiting for a "thank you" and that is why you kept calling and calling and calling. Just say it once and let it go. Move on with your day. If she doesn't like you then that is her issue. If someone called me 3 times to wish me a happy birthday I would think they were strange.

    Hey, if you can acknowledge she's the one that makes you stressed out since she doesn't accept you for you, then you should be equally aware that you are the one who is demanding a friendship with her.

    I think it's time you ignore/avoid her. If she can't handle your personality, than you're too good to just be calling her all the time. Find new friends that accept you for you. And if your brother-in-laws wife is not a lady that can do that, it's ok, just don't be good friends with her. You're too good for that.

    Keep the stress out. That's my advice.

    One call, message left with your brother was enough. If she does not return the call then she is rude, so be it. It is nice that you are trying so hard to tell her in person, but I agree she is dodging. Let her dodge.

    There is no sense in wasting your energy on someone who is unresponsive.

    Keep doing the right thing, if only for your brother and let the rudeness slide. In the end she looks bad not you.

    Stop trying to get her approval. 1 phone call is enough you are coming across as weak insecure and dont know when to stop. Whats going on with you your actions are very strange to such a simple thing that shouldnt be an issue I would avoid you too.

    your ocd is a big part of this.....you cant let go.....but you must.....stop trying so hard....do it once, wishing her happy birthday, and then leave it.maybe next year send a card instead of constantly worrying about contacting her personaly. You dont need self induced stress...recognise the fact that you are contributing to your stress levels through your condition. good luck : )

    i would not have called after the first time. It is good enough that you left a message with her husband. Don't let her get to you.

    You need to work on your depression though. Don't let it ruin yur life!
