Reality Check...the sequel

So after an exhausting day at work I came home to find out the joyous news....my FSIL and her craptastic husband are coming to xmas at the in-laws.....

Now comes the explanation of why I'm so uber excited....the FSIL and I used to be very good friends through grad school, in face she introduced me to her brother. Things were great up until her bach party last April at which point there was a plethora of shitty moments and the resulting awkwardness ensued....I tried to air the grievances, find out what I may have done wrong, generally clear the air and to no avail I got the good out passive aggressive treatment.....

Flash forward to about the last two months.....she has proceeded to become increasingly rude to me, to my MOH (sending vile emails which were forwarded to me, phone conversations, etc) and generally been acting like a whinny spoiled princessy brat. Basically from what I can see she's always been the center of attention and it seems that now that her "year of ME" is over she's having a hard time dealing.....

So....I have a point I promise.....what do I do? Do I go to xmas and slap a smile on my face and turn the perverbiale cheek or do I somehow communicate my unhappiness and general distaste for her and her treatment of me? I'm one to generally keep the peace but this is getting a bit much to take?????

If I'm being a hosebeast please say so if not give me some ideas to help.....Thanks

  • PS I see the gramatical errors but everyone should get the general idea....sorry it's been a very long day.

  • I'd do a bit of both in being honest with her and telling her you know things have been strained but you want to improve your relationship with her, and then smile and be kind and put whatever it is you're both upset about behind you. It's hard to know what advice to give when you don't really actually state anything she's done other than apparently been passive-aggressive. 

     

    Also, wth is a 'hosebeast'?!?
