Hi girls

I am at rope's end here, my relationship with my SD is going from bad to worse

She had and still have little wife syndrome

She got pregnant and despite my pleas to marry the guy she did, she informed me that she planned the pregnancy to get married

Her father was not happy and I had my hands full convincing him to walk her down the aisle

I had 9 days to plan the wedding and everything

Well two years on the marriage is not moonshine and roses anymore, he cannot provide for her like her father did

So, she wrote her father a letter and told him he must choose between me and her, and a lot of other things

The therapist read the letter and said she is a narcissist because of everything she demands in this letter 

So for about 3 months it looked like he was choosing me and she ignored him

The therapist said that she must come to us first and we must not go to her because that is what she wants, for us to forever just forgive everything and just let it go without talking it out

So now I find out that my husband has been calling her about every day, and I do not know what to do, this is how it goes everytime

She makes accusations, she sets limits and we must obey and if we do not obey we must crawl back

I am so tired of this, I did play the game while she was a kid in the house just for peace sake but I am so tired now, this is getting to much for me, she is a 24 year old mum wanting to have another baby but she wants us to pay all the bills and give them what they want so that she can have a life with everything she wants, the husband doesn't earn enough and she refuses to "work for a boss"

Please help me with advice I am so tired of this demands and insults and a husband that doesn't have the backbone to put her in her place

So i'm going to suggest something crazy... I don't know your financial situation personally, but I know that you seem extremely unhappy Sad Dealing with a narcissist is NEVER easy.

But have you considered a trial seperation? Gets you away from the drama to recover a bit, and gives your Dh a chance to think about what he really wants.

I don't know that it's possible... But you deserve to heal Sad I'm sorry you're playing so many games with SD right now.

Financially at this stage it is not possible, and my DH does not want me to leave, he swears he loves me and asks me to understand that she is his daughte

I do not have a problem with that and I do not have a problem with them having a relationship I just want him to for once establish me as his wife, you know? Like she is my wife and you are my daugther and I love you both but you have different places in  my life?

Hi wickedly perfect, that is a wickedly perfect solution! I am going to leave him to cope with this and if she starts with her guilt trips again and her demands I am just going to go on, I am going to disengage with her as well, because they must show their emotions and everything to each other and for once start to deal with their crap

If you can, separate finances. If not, start managing that money. No money to enable SD in living her "best life" with YOUR money. Cut that b!tch OFF, like today. So what if her husband cannot support her to the style or level she wants. And she wants another little "DNA hook". Well she will need to get that man of hers a second job!

Block her. Her insults cannot hurt you if you do not recieve them.

REALLY, if your DH wants to be YOUR DH then he will need to put YOU first. And match his words to his actions.

" I just decided that every cent that goes to her must come to me as well"

No. Make it hurt. For every cent that goes to her, FIVE must come to you. It will take that for him to even get a glimmer of a clue. You are his wife, you should expect more than just the same as a daughter who should be pulling her own weight. 

STalkers, wasn't there a poster who took much more than that every time her DuH threw money at his adult kid?
