First off, I'd like to apologize for any errors and ramblings in this post. I'm on my phone.
Some background: I am getting married in November, to the greatest woman(in my opinion). She smart, attractive, funny and can snark with the best of them. She also loves Dr. Who. I am committed to spending the rest of my life with her......her family on the other hand, drive me to drink(I don't drink, my family is half-Scottish/half-Irish 100% alcoholic).
Due to Maria's and I financial situation, we are having a simple and small wedding(going to City Hall), and spending what $$ we do have on rings and a honeymoon (my uncle has offered to pay).
Her mother has demanded she invite her cousins, and her uncles and her Rabbi(Maria is Jewish, but doesn't practice--and that's all I'm saying). Maria said no, we don't have the money.
Her father has demanded we have a Jewish ceremony, and have a big, fancy wedding. Maria said no to both, we don't have the money.
Her older brother is.....*deep breath and a shot of whiskey * a drug-abusing waste of skin...he wants to move in with us. Maria said no, we don't have the space(and our two cats HATE his guts)(ex.Loki and Horus are lap-whores, they see a open lap, they leap up and catch a quick catnap, they will hiss and swipe at him).
Her younger brother...oh FSM, give me strength to survive... Constantly moans about his school, his work, his underage girlfriends...yes, plural. On numerous occasions his tried to get me to cover his boney ass when he tries to juggle multiple woman(I'm sorry, I have enough 'trouble' with one).
Her sister....yeah, not touching that with a 30.5 foot pole, and the ability to dodge multiple times a round.
I'm at wits end with these people, even Maria is as well. My family, when I told them about the wedding, all they asked for were photos! *deep breath* how do I deal with these people without resorting to strategic thermonuclear weapons.
