Advice this includes houses and in-law family?
Mrs.Throbby. asked:
Ok so heres the deal..My husband and I where looking at a house next to his dad. Well his stepmom told his dad that she doesnt want us there. So she called her son (who knew we where looking at this house) and they had him buy it. No one told us about it. I know most of you will say “just look for another house and ignore the family” but it is not that easy as my brother-in-law is very close with my husband (brother-in-law lives right next to my father-in-law) any suggestions on how to deal with this.

Too close for comfort. It won’t work.

I can see where it would bother you. It was very dirty for them to do you that way. Obviously there is some shady characters in your husbands family. She could have tried to talk to you about it first and your father in law should have defended your husband/you and your family.
Anyways, no family that lives close together stays very close otherwise. I would just be glad you didn’t buy it and have those problems. Since her son is such a hero let him deal with it. Also, I wouldn’t even let them know it bothered you. Find another house that is better, and live in peace. I know that isn’t the advice you were wanting but it is clearly the only choice you have besides dwelling on the drama. If your husband wants to visit his brother then he should. He doesn’t have to speak to anyone else if he chooses not to. It sounds like they only want to start trouble anyways, don’t give them the satisfaction.
