how would u react with ur husband if you face this situation?

My hubby's female cousin , a friend since a long time told me few things such as he was not into you right b4 marriage he was after my sister and when my sister dropped his proposal he accepted you. which totally change the course of our love life and all. My hubby denied all this but didnt confronted her either ONLY coz he said it will lead to total separation of his relation with rest of his uncle, aunty and family due to her.. he though said we will keep a little distance. he called her*(she is a doctor) for some medical help his friend needed in emergency c-section. he called then deleted her number but told me afterwards that he tired to hide from me then he told me so there wont be any conflict in future if it leaks out.

same evening she called and talked to my daughter to wish her happy birthday and my hubby talked to her in very casual light mood and then hang up. i didn't see any thing from my husbands side as he is angry with her............ i'm mad at him. WT WOULD U DO? is it acceptable if he ever tries to hide things from me in terms of her giving an excuse that it is to avoid stupid fights.

Update:

i have only summarized the situation in this question. i have told my hubby everything. there is so much more that she told me as in relating so much flattering talk from my hubby to his sister and total opposite about me and so much more. which my husband says is complete lie from her.

Update 2:

my husband and i were in love and commitment during the time cousin is referring to.

Update 3:

I AM HURT COZ MY HUSBAND CLAIMS HE IS MAD AT HER BUT DOESNT SHOW. I M MAD COZ MY HUSBAND SAYS SHE IS LYING AND ALSO THE TIME PERIOD SHE IS REFERRING TO WAS WHEN ME AND HUSBAND WERE IN RELATIONSHIP. we were sweet hearts since we were teenagers and we got married when we were 26.

    Have you ever stopped to consider why people do the things they do? I mean, even if everything his cousin claimed was completely true, what possible reason could she have for telling such a thing except to cause hurt and trouble between you and your husband? Your husband may realize this about her; he's known her longer, so it's likely he's had to devise ways of dealing with her over the years....part of those ways could be to ignore her or keep her unaware of the impact she's having. I think your anger is misplaced and is playing right into the hands of the person who started this in the first place. In this case,kill the messenger...metaphorically, of course.

    What ?? I did not understand half of what you said ? But what I did get . I think that you are over reacting . 1st maybe the cousin should have just kept their mouth shut ? Why bring this Up now ? Are you happy in your marriage ? Do you love your husband ? Does he love you ? The past is the Past . What good would it do for him to confront this cousin and get into a big family ordeal over something you can not change anyway because its the past .. Move on get over it !

    I think YOU are over reactting.. so what if his cousin wants to run her mouth.. fact is he obviously loves you.. fact is , he's YOUR husband.. Fact is you share a family and a life with this man.. NO ONE ELSE.. so whatever happened in the past , is just that IN THE PAST.. stop dweling in it..she wanted a reaction out of you and she got one.. so what if thats her oppinion... so what if that is in fact what actually happened.. fact is that her loss was your gain.. im sure before your husband you had bf's and perhaps thought at times u'd marry someone other then your husband..but life happened and things happened to bring u both together.. so who cares what happened to get u there.. concentrate on what you have NOW.. she's family and its hard to x out family members.. you said it yourself he's not doing anything wrong.. so let it go.. sounds like you have a pretty good husband, and perhaps you need to ask yourself why your husband would feel the need not to be totally honest with u from the start when it comes to telling u things, perhaps u make him feel he cant be honest with u.. perhaps u need to have alittle more self confidence, and be alittle more open to your husband, and stop believing everyone else over your husband..

    I don't fully understand what's going on....you're upset b/c your husband isn't mad at his cousin?

    The cousin is a drama queen and lacks discretion and decorum (typical in the US). You're husband is trying to avoid conflict (also typical).

    Let it go.

    She sounds like a drama queen. She's trying to make trouble.

    You sound like a drama queen. You're buying into it.

    And you're blaming your husband for it. Poor sod can't buy a break.

    BTW.

    Have you clued your husband in about all the particulars of YOUR prior relationships? Or isn't that any of his business?

    So have you explained why what she said pissed you off to him

    He is a MAN, not a telepath, if you want him to do something, you explain it wit small words, broken down into step in sequential order, or the desired end result.
