Question: What would you do? My husband and I have been married for almost 2 years and together for a total of 4.Our sister-in-law and I had a argrument about a year ago over the way she talked to my husband on the phone.I felt that treating my husband like one of her children and screaming at him was uncalled for and when I asked her to calm down, she told me that no on in the family tells her what to do.So for the better part of 2 years, she spends her time throwing stabs and I do what I can to bite my tounge and keep my comments in private between my husband and I.We very recently attended a wedding where much of the family was in attence.I visited with his grandmother and got to know family I have yet to meet while he visited with his brother, whom he does not see much anymore.The sister-in-law then proceeded to flirt with him.Not an innocent flirt but a suductive jealous flirt.She never touched him but I was beyond furious just the same.I promptly joined in on the conversation to stop things. I said nothing.

Answer: Don't go around her anymore. I realize that she is family, though I don't quite understand how she is related unless she is your brother's wife or your husbands' brother's wife. \n\nAs far as her flirting, there isn't much you can do. If she knows it bothers you, she will do it more often. When there are family things going on, stay close to your husband or just let him deal with her if she comes onto him. If it's his brother's wife, maybe your husband can talk to his brother. I doubt she is really after your husband, she is just out to make you mad. Sounds like she is doing a good job too.\n\nLike you would tell a kid when someone is bugging them, ignore her. After she sees you aren't going to take the bait, she should stop. \n\nGood Luck
