Background - DP and I been together for over 3 years currently looking to buy a place together. We also hope to marry next year.
His sister got married a few months ago. I got on okay with sis at first and still ok on surface. However over the last year she has been making the odd snide comment - very difficult to pin down - just feel I'm being got at. I don't think she dislikes me - more that she thinks I am not a suitable life partner for her brother. Tbh I think his parents secretly share this attitude though they are nice to me and on the whole I like them.
Anyway - she gt married in Kent and we are up north. Invited to the wedding - had to beg for time off work and pay travelling expenses and hotel to attend - a lot of money for me. My DP played no formal part in the wedding which was a very traditional affair. Found out a few weeks before the event that she had arranged for him to sit at the table with bridesmaids and best man and placed me far away with 7 random strangers.
I asked DP to object to this arrangemet but even though he knows I am shy and would hate spending a copuple of hours with strangers he did not want to rock the boat. Also he said he didn't think it was intended as an insult to me.
So this has been festering and I guess I am asking whether you think I am over reacting and am wrong to take it as a personal insult. Do you think he should have insisted on sitting with me?I do not have much experience of formal weddings but I really did not think that's the way to do things.
