She's driving me up a wall. Our wedding is 10 days away and for the past few months has been nothing but negative and rude. Few examples:
*When asked to get her side of the family's address and guest list put together she put her friends and coworkers on there and didn't include a single family member on my fiances side. (She is divorced and he is her only child)
*Any detail about the wedding I've given her it's responded to with remarks such as "Well why would you have it there?" "Outside? Really?" "You're really going to go with those colors?" "My dress was $200. You shouldn't spend more than that."
*She calls my fiance almost daily to complain about how much we're spending on our wedding, ($10,000 is our budget) and informs him that we will be going into bankruptcy if he keeps "letting me take the reins".
*Still asks frequently (10 days away from the wedding) Why we are having it at the location we have chosen and why don't we change it?
*Bought me racy stripper-esq lingerie high heeled getup for my bridal shower which was casual and then threw a fit and isolated herself for the rest of the party when she felt she was overdressed and that I didn't give her gift enough attention, then leaving without saying a word to my mother or family.
The list can go on and on. She's controlling, selfish and trying to change our wedding plans as much as she can. I'm at my wits end with her and I'm almost getting cold feet at the thought of having to deal with her for the rest of her life. It's exhausting and my fiance just glazes over and tunes her out when she acts this way. Then defends her actions and doesn't want to cause conflict and stick up for me.
I really don't know what to do about her or how to handle this. I'm not very good at conflict with people I'm uncomfortable with but at this point I want to punch her in the face lol. Sorry for the long rant I just needed to get some things off my chest and see if anyone has been in this position and can offer advice. Thanks and wish me luck!
