My husband's brother lives in a neighboring house, and works with a husband on the same job. They are both twenty-five years old, and I'm twenty-two. We live together for almost two years, there are two small children. The daughter of the first marriage, three years.
We live while in a rented apartment, as the salary of her husband is small. To us and so it is difficult (I at present do not work yet), so also the brother of the husband all time sits down to us on a neck! His money squandered, by the way, he has problems with alcohol and very large.
Drinks daily. That thing asks to wash (okay, I wash), often asks for food, as money spends on drinking, not on food. When I give dinner to my husband for work, he divides it for two.
Constantly, he has some troubles and the husband, instead of having a rest or spending time with the family, he solves his problems. And this list can be continued as long as desired.
My husband said many times that I was already sick of it, but he does not take any measures! On the contrary, he starts to take offense at me! Everything was boring, she told his brother everything that I think about him. So what happened ?! He began to insult me and said that such words could be obtained. That in general I am a woman of easy virtue, and said that I should be grateful that his brother married me. In general, a nightmare. I kicked him out of our house and told him not to come again.
I told my husband everything, his brother's behavior also does not suit him, but he tolerates it all. And I'm very upset. But the most insulting is that my husband did not especially protect me. His brother insulted me and even said that we had never helped him in any way! I love my husband, but his reaction to all this was a surprise to me, to put it mildly. What if this parasite destroys my family?
Dear @lolitalilu! I hope it works right way! Upvoted
Thank you for sharing this story. I strongly feel like your husband should have taken control. Even though it's his brother, there comes a time where the line is crossed. When you help people, try not to expect anything in return so the hurt wont be as much when they treat you differently. Also strong minds never fail, if you can sit down with your husband and tell him to take charge in your marriage, I guarantee he will. I'm sure he loves you as well and you will get through to him... but your job is to always stay positive about situations like this. If you think negatively it will happen negatively. But if you think that this is another barrier to get through you will achieve positive results!
