How do you get your future Sister in Law to stop talking about her personal private life ??

Question

I am talking about things where they should be left in the bedroom , she is loud and overbearing but my brother loves her so I will deal with it for him but there private life I just don’t want to hear about, I have even come out and said please stop that’s too much information for me and clever suggestions would be appreciated thanks

Answer 1

When she starts talking about that stuff again, calmly say "Im sorry but I thought we talked about the fact that I am very uncomfortable talking about your personal life, and I would really appreciate it if we can change the subject right away." If that doesnt work, then simply say "Im sorry, I cant hear any more of this" and get up and walk away from her. Its all you can do, good luck!

Answer 2

Start putting her down, I mean it ! She has no self-respect, or respect for
others. That is TRASHY. My sister is the exact same way ( and she has alot
of problems )......She DOES have some sort of problem if she feels the need
to expose her sexlife to you, even when u don't want to hear it. I kept having
to tell my sister for YEARS to stop talking like that............It didn't stop until one
day I told her, I could care less about you stupid sex life, I have a great sex
life myself. Mine is probably better than yours !! Then tell her your going to
tell your brother how she's acting. It doesn't matter what she says, just do it
if she doesn't keep her crap to herself. If she keeps it up.....let her know she
talks like white trash, or a hooker !!! I'm telling u that will make her feel so
freakin stupid, she'll get the hint. Put her down everytime she say's something.......eventually......she'll stop it. Who cares how she feels. She is
crossing your BOUNDERIES.........Good Luck, just be tough.

Answer 3

I like Alice W's answer. Use embarrassment to get your point across with this busy body.

Next time she brings something up, get loud about it and try to bring other people into the conversation. Maybe she will get the hint.

Answer 4

I don't think clever suggestions are your answer. You've tried to be reasonable and honest by saying outright that you don't want to hear about their sex lives. Tell them you just don't want to hear about it anymore and if they don't comply, don't see them. If they ask why you don't see them, tell them that as much as you enjoy a healthy sex life, you don't want to discuss people's sex lives with them, and you are disgusted with their need to do so.

Answer 5

why don't you grow up and stop acting like a prudish child... if you don't want to hear anything, just stand up and walk away...

bet you are the kind of person who sees something on the TV and instead of turning it off, continues watching then complains to everyone about how bad it was...

Answer 6

Oh yikes. Tell her firmly that you love her but will not hear that nonsense anymore. The truth will set you free, even if it hurts sometimes! =) go for it!

Answer 7

no longer bothered to be straightforward, the undeniable fact that footballers are meant to pay interest entirely on their soccer reasons us to question their antics off the sector, it is an inevitable results of their life sort in my opinion.

Answer 8

throw hints when she talk... say my mom always told me that u should never tell ppl what happens in the bedroom.... if i was someone else- i'd be all over your man.

Answer 9

"I'm sorry, I thought I told you I didn't want to hear about this." And then get up and walk away.. It's polite, short, sweet, and honest.

Answer 10

TELL HER! say you dont want to think about your brother that way. And be serious. yuck. sorry lady!!
