WIBU to tell sil to F off?

Huge backstory to this but let's just say sil has always been the golden child, much favoured over dh, to the point that it has carried onto the gc.

I don't really want to go into the ways she has been favoured but let's just say she has had hundreds of thousands of pounds spent on her and her dc.

She had a birthday a couple of weeks ago and we texted her to wish her a happy birthday, she was out and about so we left her card with a relative who we knew she was due to see that day. We don't buy gifts for the adults, just the dc.

Just had a message off her telling us not to bother again, each year the card gets worse and she would rather we didn't bother. I'm a bit meh tbh, it was a nice card I thought with a nice verse inside with a thoughtful hand written message in it.

She's a proper spoilt diva and I can't be arsed with her fucking drama any longer. I would love to text back fuck off but dh says he's not going to respond.

Maybe we should have had her card hand delivered by turtle doves.

Good decision OP - just make sure you include a card inviting her to your wedding/baby christening/any important family occasion in that, won't you?

Then, when it erupts:

'Oh Gawd, we didn't invite you! Ah well you know since you took yourself off our card list, we don't have anything to...well, remind us that you actually exist at all, if you know what I mean...'
