So, my FI has this brother, it's his half brother...for his entire life he has always had to be the center of attention and when he is not he becomes malicious, vindicitive and manipulative. For example, at my FI's brother party before his wedding (albanian tradition) the half brother decides to announce that he is "engaged". At the time, he was 19 years old and his GF was 17. So, now it is our wedding and he just announced that his wife is 8 weeks pregnant (different wife by the way, he was divorced from the first)...side note--when I say married/divorced, in their culture living together is considered married and not living together anymore is considered divorce...there was no signed paper.
This girl (prego wife) also caused an immense amount of drama in the family in the last few weeks, stuff I will not even bring up because its so long winded and ridiculous. So, now, FI's older sister decides to make ammends with the half brother and his wife - - and now we are all supposed to feel sorry for him and cater to him, and blah blah blah...it's just so annoying and aggravating...people enabling other people all the time drives me NUTSO. Oh yes, they also claimed to have never gotten an invite to the wedding, yet his wife helped me stuff the invitations at the time; claimed to not be part of anything for the wedding - - sent him an email about tuxedos months ago, his wife did not show up at my bridal shower, etc etc etc
