My husband has a 15 yr old daughter w/ his ex & he pays child support & he also helps her w/ money for her other kids that aren’t even his b/c she’s always crying poor & she doesn’t work. He’s a really good guy & he’s been taking on more clients lately to give her more money.
My husband & his ex went to high school w/ another couple & they’re all still friends. All of us are in our late 30′s. The wife of that couple is catty & devious. She was rude the 1st time I met her & asked how old I was but her face was like she was smelling poo. I’m the same age as her btw I just look younger. The 2nd time I walked in & said hi & she responded by saying “I thought you were a blonde” with a smirk. I said no & she said “hmm must have been someone else then”. Bittttttttch. Her teenage son comes here for tattoos. My husband is a tattoo artist & they’re in the middle of completing a large piece on him. Her & her husband always tag along & want to BBQ at my house. AND she takes over my kitchen like she lives here & asks me to move out of her way. I can’t stand her.
Long story short she started being nice to me, asking about our wedding plans, asking how much we paid for our couches, how much was my ring, how much my husband is renting his deceased mother’s house for. As it turns out she was using me to get info for my husband’s ex. Now my husband is getting texts from his ex w/ all sorts of wrong information. One text said “ur a f-in piece of sh*t loser, ur paying for a wedding, ur renting that house for $$$$, u refurnished your apt & ur daughter is living off scraps”. NOT true. Our wedding was just me, my husband & 2 friends on the beach in Maui which was also our honeymoon, he does rent his mom’s house but he also pays the mortgage, and almost everything in our apartment belonged to me from before I met him so yes the place looks completely different now b/c it’s all MY stuff. It’s not a bachelor pad anymore. Excuse me for having nice things. She also goes into my bedroom & I have to ask her to please use the guest bathroom instead. She’s just very bold & always snooping.
What can I say to her the next time she asks me something point blank? Like “nice aquarium, how much did you pay for it”? Or “how much did your honeymoon cost”? Or “you always look so nice, it must cost you a lot to maintain your hair & nails” Back handed compliment. How am I supposed to respond to questions like that right in my face? I can’t say none of your business b/c it’ll start a fight. And what do I say when she asks “so how much money do you make per year”? I mean who is that intrusive? WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO SAY TO THIS WOMAN? Btw her son & her husband are WONDERFUL people & very good friends to my husband. I’m normally very strong & pretty confrontational but I know if I go off it will be bad.
