    Hi just need to let off a bit of steam really, H2bs sister got a bee in her bonnet when H2b sold his home (ex family home) he brought the home from his mother six years ago and paid the going rate back then, his mum then moved in with his sister, not quite sure why but she now is saying to anyone that will liseten that we (house is nothing to do with me,) have ripped off his mum, resulting in 19 of his family members who said they were coming to our wedding now saying they are now not coming, to top it off after saving hard for the last two years for our wedding is now saying I have paid for the wedding with stolen money, when I said I could prove every penny I have earned has gone towards this wedding (separate bank account for wedding only bills thank god) she called me a mad bitch, really at a loss as to what to do as we don't know what she is saying to his mum (who bless her is not well and we cant go see her as she lives at sisters house) thankfully im fully supported by my family and our friends and our wedding in two weeks will be the lovely day we imagine it to be, H2bs brother is coming to the wedding, but she does not get on with him either xx

    Sounds like a psycho!

    Jelaousy maybe that she's losing her bro to you, sad about the family home... I'm surprised family members have believed her, but if that's really the case, they're not worth having there anyway hun. You may as well invite other friends that may have not made the initial cut because of those additional 20 family members, or save the money you would have paid per head on them topwards your honeymoon!

    Wow; if people are going to be like that then it might be best to just ignore them. I'm sure your h2b paid her the right money and did not rip her off; to say it has paid for your wedding is rude and insulting after you have saved so hard for it. If they want evidence then give it to them and see what she says then ;) You can't argue with fact.

    How does your H2B feel about it all? He's the only one that can make any reconciliation happen. All you can do is support him.

    30th August 2014 was the best birthday ever.
    It was the day that I became Mrs. Dixon.

    surely everyone knows he bought the house from his mum? so it was his house to sell? I get she might be upset especially if she was raised there but unless he said he wouldn't sell it then I don't understand. I take it he sold it for quite a bit more than what he bought it for if the sister is feeling that he ripped off his mum? xx

    Have the family members said this is why they Arnt attending? If so maybe your husband can broach the subject with those people, if he wants to. X

    It was only a little two bedroomed terrace in Bury, he brought it from his mum for £39.000 and it sold for £47.000 but he brought it 9 years ago from her and he only got enough to pay off his mortgage (he had a small loan on it too) so he didn't come away with anything from it, spoke to one of his cousins and they said they couldn't come as didn't want to be seen to be taking sides lol which is what they have done anyway, we had already paid for the meals but have filled the spaces now with friends, H2b is not that bothered really that they are not coming, ah well only two weeks to go, so onward and upward as they say, thank you all for the support xxx

    I can sympathise - we bought my H2B's family home when his parents split up. Since then, anything we try to change we get grief and "why are you changing that, it cost me a lot of money" or "don't throw that away, it cost me a lot of money". Even though - like your H2B - we paid market value (actually a little over). Families and money are the worst combination and it seems to bring out the worst in people. Hope you manage to sort things out but if not, then it's their loss!
