[SIZE=14pt]Okay so here is my trouble I have a brother and DH has a brother. My brother is goofy, and at times doesn't think his decisions through very well but overall he is a wonderful guy. DH brother is arrogant and not a nice person he is married to a girl who is dunb and does whatever he tells her to do (she stays at home and doesnt drive) My DH thinks the sun rises and sets on his brother, he has a great job where he makes great money and has done well with himself but he is such an a@@ He only calls when he has something to brag about like buying a Hummer he never asks about our girls or me just to brag about his latest toy. My brother calls EVERYday now granted he never has very much to say but he does call and he always asks about my girls... Now why I am fed up DH gets angry because my brother calls everyday.."he never has anything to say why does he call..." He loves me thats why!!! My brother and I grew up so close and DH and his brother can not relate to this I am not looking for anything just wanted to vent!!![/SIZE]
I'm sorry that you are having family issues :hug99: Just know that you have a great brother, and it seems weird to DH b/c he doesn't have that same kind of relationship with his brother.
Just wanted to offer you a hug. I am very fortunate that my dh gets along with everybody in my family. Oh and by the way I think I have told you this before but I love love love your girls names. They are beautiful.
It's so hard when it comes to family. I have a very...ahem...difficult brother-in-law, but I also have three amazing brothers myself. I have decided after six years of sheer he!! with my BIIL to let dh deal with it on his own. I have stopped asking about him and dh doesn't talk about him all that often. It needs to be this way for the sake of our marriage. Maybe you can make peace with the fact that this is how each of them are and be happy knowing your brother is so involved. :hug99: It definitely is hard, trust me, I can relate.
My sister and I talk every morning, but not on weekends, because our DH's get exasperated with how much we talk on the phone! My DH talked to his brother last week for the first time in months. They are 5 years apart, aside from family they don't have much in common, and his brother moved 12 hours away this summer. They get along fine....I figure it's just a guy thing. I tell DH that he's just jealous that he and his brother don't talk much. Can your brother call when your DH isn't home and therefore won't know he calls? Not that you have to hide it, but I know if my DH knew how long we are on the phone each morning he just wouldn't understand! Seems like you have a GREAT brother!!
:hug99: Sorry your hubby doesn't understand. It sounds like you have a great brother, and are very close. :hug99:
