Family and Weird: Intruders!

Intruders!

By wtf babe? - 29/06/2020 14:02

Today, I came home to find my husband allowed several of his family members to move in without even asking me. His parents are in the spare room, his brother and wife are in my den and they expect me to make my daughter share her bed with two older cousins. I’m ready to take the kids and leave. FML

Crowded House

Today, my boyfriend asked me to go to his parents' house for the weekend. He didn’t tell me until after we’d arrived that all his siblings and their SO's would also be coming. His parents live in a 2 bedroom, one bath house. So far there are 16 people here and he’s refusing to drive me back home. FML

Today, I found out that if my husband and I move to another country to live, then his mom and sister will live with us too. I'm already living with them because of societal traditions. I like them and everything, but I really need some privacy. FML

Today, out of the blue, my husband suggested to his parents that they move to our town for the next six months, with the understanding that we’d see them nearly every day. I found out about this when they starting making plans. FML

Today, my two boys wanted to sleep in bed with us. My wife gave them the okay, even though there’s not enough room for all of us to lay. I’m now sleeping in my 3 year-old’s bed. FML

Great parenting

Today, my sister is upset that I won’t upturn my entire life by letting her kids stay at my house 4-5 days a week. She decided to move in with her boyfriend after one month, before even introducing him to her kids. Now he’s decided he doesn’t like the kids, so she wants me to keep them. FML

Today, my husband told me that he's letting his mother move in with us. He told her it was alright without even consulting me first. I hate my mother-in-law so much that I'm contemplating divorce rather than living with her. FML

Today, my boyfriend and I moved into our own house. He proceeded to invite his parents to stay for the week. The same parents we've lived with for the past 5 years. FML

Today, I overheard my parents planning on how to get me to move out of the house. It's my house. They only came to visit and forgot to leave. FML

Today, my parents, my two sisters and their significant others went on a vacation and dropped their children at my house without ever asking me. I'm single, live alone, and can barely make ends meet, and they know it. FML

Why did they need to live with you? Are they all homeless, or was it out of convenience when the lockdown came into effect? It was pretty disrespectful of him to go behind your back like that, so you need to sit down with him, and find out why he didn't say anything. Also, your daughter shouldn't have to share a bed with anyone, cousins or not, especially if they're older. If his family are homeless, you and he will have to compromise, and work out the best way to keep everyone safe and happy. If they are there out of convenience, or some other reason, kick him out along with them, and don't let him back until he realizes the risk he put you and your kids in during the middle of a global pandemic, and apologizes for his actions.

Agreed. You and the kids shouldn't leave, everyone else should - including your husband. That is a huge betrayal of him not including you and your kids (they should have a say too) in this decision. If they won't leave willingly, consult with a lawyer to ascertain your rights in this situation and what you should do next.

Tell the inlaws and your husband that they can get air mattresses for whoever, and that either the guest room or the den reverts back to your use. Floors are fine for sleeping on!

Sounds like that's part of his plan. If he gets you and the kids to leave, his extended family will not be so cramped. He's a genius for letting you think that's your idea to leave with the kids.
