My husband cannot stand to have me point out anything negative or disruptive his family does. This has been going on for 30 years and I don't expect him to change. I am trying to defend myself but am walking on eggshells because heaven forbid I make his Mom cry then he becomes enraged at me. He will defend them no matter what. For example... his brother invites himself to visit us and expects me to be his slave. Last time he was here I noticed that he had a weeping herpes sore on his lip and he was leaving bloody tissues all over the house, touching my computer, wanting mygolf clubs. I was really upset and told my husband not to let him use my golf clubs. Well of course he did let him and I went ballistic when the brother left and made DH use clorox on the grips because his brother was touching his weeping sore and then using my clubs. DH was mad at me because he thought I was making a big deal out of nothing. My point is that he has no respect for me if he will not honor a simple request. There was an extra set of golf clubs in the garage besides mine that brother could have used but his brother wanted to use mine. So DH let him. It is more the lack of respect that upsets me.
