Having issues with my sister in-law. She was unemployed and spent 6 months with us during the pandemic. While she was with us she said some crazy stuff and also wouldn’t leave. I had to make up some stuff about inviting my parents over to stay with us just so she would get out. Now she still comes over on weekends (since she likes to spend time with our kids) and I can’t stand it. Any tips for dealing with a SIL who is super annoying ??? Worries that I’m gonna blow up on her….

Is there a chance that you can forget what she said and try to think positively about her? These family relationship issues can get much bigger, if not handled delicately, especially if you’re on an island

This is exactly what I’m trying to do. But finding it really difficult.

Does your partner feel the same way about it or are you on an island with this?

I feel like I’m on an island with this. I do express my thoughts about my SIL but for the most part my wife doesn’t want to hear it as it’s her sister.

What is the issue exactly?

Yeah. But she has since apologized but still having problems moving on from this. It’s like if you cheated on your wife , sure you could apologize but you have essentially broken that relationship or lost equity in that relationship forever

Just found out that my favorite aunt, who claimed I was her “favorite” niece, chose to leave all her valuables to her other two nieces who never visited or called her once in the last ten years. My aunt passed away suffering from cancer last year and didn’t have her own kids. I was there by her side throughout her battle. I still wish I had done more, made her life easier. I probably sound petty, but a part of me is forcing me to re-evaluate every interaction I ever had with her.

I had a crush on a girl. It's been almost 2 years since I confessed my feelings to her and today she told me that she likes me too.
The only issue is she's a Muslim and I'm a Hindu. She believes we don't have a future and that's why she took a long time to confess. She is confused on what to do and even I am confused because things will actually be difficult for obvious reasons.
Please advice on what we should do now.
