We fear he’s destined for life in her basement.
: My fiance’s nephew just turned 14. He has older parents and is so socially inept that we fear for his future.Dear Abby: She sabotages our family holiday with her phony drama
Problem is, my fiance’s sister is beyond controlling, and everyone is scared of her, so no one wants to make any suggestions because she dismisses them straight away. We’re afraid he’ll end up a shut-in in their basement, as he’s unable to do anything or think for himself.You are not yet a family member, and even after you and your fiance are married, you won’t be a blood relative. Because the mother is dismissive, perhaps your fiance and his parents should discuss these concerns together with her.
In retrospect, it was, hands down, the best thing that ever happened to me. Now, two decades later, I still get angry over the mistreatment I endured.I feel angry and resentful when I know we will have face-to-face interaction. We have clashed at times during these events.
