Unfriendly SILs

What can help me, my SILs are not very nice. They don’t communicate well to me or to each other.

Just avoid them.

When you can't avoid them, smile, be polite, make small talk. go home.

What’s your expectation around their communication with you?

I have two SILs. We get on, but don’t have much interaction.

Minimise all your interactions with them. However be super polite and diplomatic when around them.

Keep your own relationships with your own people tight and make sure you are careful with what you with say to any mutual relatives/friends.

Be boring and shrink into the wall when around them

Make sure your life outside of their sphere is busy, happy and fulfilled.
