Sister-In-Laws


Sister-in-laws are a complicated subject to discuss. It’s the same issues as mother-in-laws; you either hate them or love them. I have two sister-in-laws. One of them I can’t stand and the other I simply tolerate for the sake of the people surrounding us. I can’t reveal which is which but if they know any better, they’ll know exactly which one they are. My brother has a girlfriend and even though they aren’t married, I call her my sister-in-law because he’s tied down with three kids. My boyfriend has an older sister, one whom I share names with. So sister-in-laws are either best friends or worst enemies on shows. Movies try to make it quick and easy by mainly trying to stick to the best friend idea.  Neither of my sister-in-laws are my best friends. I talk to one more than the other, however. I’ve tried to get along with one but it always results in major backstabbing on her part and major trash talking on my part. That’s the sister-in-law that if anything were to ever happen to her, I really, genuinely would not give a shit. My other sister-in-law has come to me for advice and takes my word for a lot of things, something I would never do in return. I try to help her out as much as I can but it does get a bit frustrating when I’m dealing with some of the same issues. Now, on TV, I would have tried to break up my brother and his sister-in-law and tried to get my entire family to hate her. Needless to say, I didn’t do that. On TV, my boyfriend’s sister would have tried to break us up. This is where I can relate. The beginning of our entire relationship was us butting heads and her constantly badmouthing me to her parents. So on and so forth.. I cannot stand one sister-in-law. Anyone who’s so desperate to get their kid noticed by splashing pictures on everything they can get their hands on isn’t worth my time. I don’t talk to her. And my other sister-in-law is actually pretty cool. We’re almost nothing alike, yet we tolerate each other and get along, if not by force. My advice to everyone out there is to try to stay on peaceful terms. Starting a war with a sister-in-law will only end in tension amongst family, which is never good. Try to stay neutral and keep your head up high because the better person always walks away from drama.
