Vent Blog: My sister's bf is controlling.

Tweet

So, I've decided to write this post about my sister's bf. Well, her fiance but I don't know if they are still engaged or what. They were supposed to get married in Aug 2018 but then didn't. Then said they'd get married in Nov 2018. Didn't happen. Now they aren't talking at all about getting married. Anyways, her bf is older. I mean, he's older than our dad. My sister's bf is almost twice her age but then again, that doesn't bother me. He's a nice guy for the most part I guess. That's not really what this post is about. Lately, her bf seems to be pretty controlling of her. Tells her what she can or can't eat, drink, dress. Recently, I got a coupon in my email for Michaels and it gave me so much off of my order so I told my sister about it. I was planning on getting canvases for myself and she asked me to order her some as well. These are the value packs where you get 8-10 canvases for only $10. She told me she would pay me today when I came over but when I did, she asked if she could pay me next week instead. Not a big deal as she usually is good for it but her bf asked what she needed to pay me for. When she told him about the canvases, he said "Well, don't you think you should have discussed this with me first?" She replied that she did talk to him about it before telling me to order her some and then they had to go upstairs to discuss it. Now mind you, the canvases she asked me to order only came up to $22. Not a big chunk of change. Anytime I am around my sister and her bf, they are always talking about money. What they want to spend it on and this and that but when my sister wants to spend $20 on art supplies her bf gets mad. mostly because she didn't discuss it with him. I don't know if she doesn't see it or what but her bf is becoming pretty controlling of her. And since he's controlling her, he thinks he can control me which led to a big blowout between the 3 of us. She of course took his side and I told them plain as day that I will not be controlled by anyone. If that's something they enjoy, then good for them but they will not control me or disrespect me like talking about me when I'm not in the same room. I know there will be some problems when summer comes because I have all these things I want to do with the kids but if my sister has to beg her bf for money then I probably won't be inviting her along to most of them. May sound mean but by summer I will have saved up $1100+ (the + is for all the change I've been saving up and rolling). That money is for me and my daughter to do fun things but if I have to pay for my sister every time I turn around, that money will be gone in a flash.
