In-laws

[Mumofboys124]

Hi,
I'm just after people's thoughts and/or experiences of the same.
Since me and my now husband have been together the relationship between us and his parents has been very strained.
They haven't actually spoken to us properly in over 2 years. We've tried to build bridges, especially after the birth of our son 15 months ago. But nothing has come of it. They've never asked to meet him or even asked after him. They don't speak to his brother and his family either (we have a very good relationship with them).
It seems every time we try to communicate, they either want to argue or simply don't respond.
I've had enough of the constant worry. I think I'm ready to tell my husband that I want to leave it all in the past and move on with us and the people who actually care about us.
I think he would be on board but just wondering if anyone has been through the same?
It's a shame for my husband but he's not getting anything fro the relationship anyway.

Yes, though with my in laws it was a but different. They thrived on creating any drama they could, tried to sabotage out wedding, and screamed abuse during any contact my husband had with them. Drugs, alcohol, emotional abuse. Refused to take any responsibility for their actions, and as such we went NC, joint decision. It's been harder on DH than me as they re his family. But I just supported him in any way I could. From the sounds of it, you are well rid. Toxic people tend to become more toxic when confronted with their behaviour. All you can do is ignore and hope they get the message. I'm.just sorry you are going through this. After her last episode where SIL turned up at our flat, I'm hoping that will be the last though I'm cynical about it. Sending you and
