Talk to your husband! Explain why you don't get along with his mom or sister and when you explain do it calmly. If you get upset he will too. Its the husbands family and his job to deal with his family...if it was your parents or sister than it would be your job to step in. It will hurt him but if you keep stuff like this bottled up then it will cause resentment towards your husband since it's his family. If you don't talk to him then it's up to you to be the better person and let what they do slide.

I was raised in an old fashion way my mother always tells me that once I am married I am maried into his families as well...I am not sure why you and your inlaws don't get along however I think you should sit down and talk to your husband and see what he has to say about it. If possible sit down and talk to them. There may be a misunderstanding or something that you are unaware of..If this doesn't help I suggested you avoid her anyways you can. They are still your husband's family and if you love your husband you would at least try to get along with them. I know how you feel about the inlaws. I have a nasty mother and sister in laws myself and I understsand your frustration.

Ha ha you just tell him straight out! That's what I did with my husband his mother is the biggest DRAMA QUEEN I have ever met! She was always putting her two sense in our relationship and causing problems between us, I must say that more than half of the arguments and fights we would have were because his family was ALWAYS in our business. Until one day I got fed up with it and told him that I wanted nothing to do with his mother or family and he said that he understood. He knows how his family can be so he understood me. Till this day I would say that it has been the happiest 2 years of my life "since I don't talk to that drama queen lady" lol. Just be honest with your husband and let him know how you feel. I don't think you want to be a hypocrite and go to that lady's house or his sisters house and show up like nothings the matter, talk to him and let him know how you feel abut them. Good Luck =)
