I need some advice. I'm am soo sick and tired of DH's dad and sister asking about why we haven't bought a house, when are we going to buy a house, etc etc. It's none of their business.
Anyway, I've just realised it's going to get a lot worse when they find out I'm leaving work next year. We will not be buying a house until I finish my degree and the kids are all in school. No big deal right? Ha! I don't get why they are so concerned with our personal finances. I don't know what to do?
I've tried to talk to DH, but he is just so laid back and doesn't even get annoyed at ANYTHING. I'm the total opposite, I get upset/worried/annoyed/concerned of everything. I even get annoyed because of DH's lack of ability to get annoyed IYKWIM :laughing:
I've tried some smart a@@ comments such as;
FIL OR SIL: "So when are you going to buy a house?"
response to FIL: "Don't know yet. So when are you going to marry your girlfriend of 5 years?" I really want to say "When are you going to marry your girlfriend, you know the one you left your childrens mother for. The one you cheated with etc etc :devil6: not worth it!
response to SIL: "Don't know yet. So when are you going to have kids? I don't know why you haven't had any yet"
They just don't seem to pick up that they are being intrusive and rude.
We will buy a house when WE are ready. I'm just sick of their comments. This is more a vent than anything else. Sorry it's a bit long :o
