Wife wants brother in law over for dinner, I dont.

A couple months ago I was at my mother in law's house where she was babysitting my nephew and niece. Ages 8 and 4, I was with my 1 year old and 12 year old.

My 12 year keeps running up and reporting to me that my neice and nephew are hurting my 1 year old on purpose. I come in to the room and pick her up from crying and the nephew says the 4 year old neice slapped my 1 year old for taking a toy. I don't think much of it and bring her in to the room with me where my 12 year old is explaining to my mother in law that they are picking on the 1 year old (his sister) and he's upset.

30 minutes later my 1 year old and the 4 year old neice are playing with a balloon on the floor, no problems. I walk around the corner into the kitchen and my 1 year old screams and stops, and screams and stops but sounds muffled. I come into room and the 4 year old has the balloon pressed over my 1 year olds face and she's gasping for air and crying trying to get her head away from the balloon. I yelled "Stop. You can't do that, it could hurt her!" And so the 4 year old runs to my mother in law and says I'm being mean. I explained what I saw, but my mother in law was clearly annoyed that I yelled at my neice. Yelling at her wasn't cool, but by yelling I mean, I'm 10 feet away from speaking in a loud quick tone, not yelling in her face like a drill instructor.

An hour goes by and my daughter is in the living room and in front of me as I sat on the couch but on my phone. The 8 year old comes in as my 1 year old is standing trying to get on top of a riding toy and pushes her over and the back of her head came within 2 inches of hitting the TV stand, but she's crying bloody murder at her head and back hitting the carpet. Now I did yell "Why would you do that?! She's minding her own business and you just pushed her over!" And he runs to my mother in law and says "He's being an asshole!" And she comes in and she comes and just stares at me while my 12 year old is yelling at the 8 year old for pushing his sister while I'm packing her diaper bag while holding her to leave, walking home with her and my 12 year old. The mother in law doesn't call or anything, but does call the father of the kids (my brother in law) and tells them I was a huge asshole to his kids. He contacts me on Facebook and says "I better watch how I talk to his kids because he will beat my ass" - I tell him everything that happened, apologize for raising my voice at him, he says "watch your back faggot" so I blocked him. I talked to my wife later that night and she gets very angry at me for "starting drama" but is a little upset that her daughter was being bullied at her mother's house by her neice and nephew, but not nearly as upset as she is about me starting drama. She didn't talk to much for a day or two, and sometimes praises my brother in law around me. I told her about the conversation we had on Facebook and she just shrugged her shoulders at me like "so?"

Since then, while attending my nephews and neices birthday parties and family functions, he's just stared at me and puffed his chest out in front of me to try to intimidate me and hasnt spoken a word to me since. I saw him while grocery shopping he paced around outside around my car on the opposite side of the parking lot from where he was parked but in vision of the store windows so I waited until he was gone before leaving.

We moved into a new house recently and my wife invited all of brothers and sisters to have Thanksgiving dinner here, which I'm happy to accommodate except for that specific brother in law that threatened me. I don't even mind their kids coming and stuff, but the brother in law being in my house bothers me. I talked to my wife this and she reverted back to the "you are just causing drama" argument and said I was being a baby. How do I put my foot down about not letting her brother in law into my home?

How do I (24M) get my gf (24F) to quit her dreams and face reality?

I'm prefacing this by saying I know I sound like a dick, but hear me out. Also bit of a read Some background: We have been dating for 8 years (apparently a long time) and have plans to move out from our parents house and start our lives together. We both agreed that we wanted to buy a house together and split the down deposit 50/50. We've tried living together for week periods at a time, so we're not worried, and feel that'll be a good start since were on the same page. 5 years ago, my girlfriend started her own art business. She had dropped out of high school at the end of grade 12 (has like 5 courses left to do get her diploma) and decided she's not gonna get some piece of paper since she doesn't need it. Ever since, she's been working on her business with her mom and trying to get it off the ground. I've been going to uni, got a degree, and am now working fulltime. The problem is with her business, from my pov, it's not sustainable and it...

Part 4 of the dinner date and my last post ever on here.

Yes, last post. I guess me updating those who cared turned into me seeking attention or making things up. I joined reddit to ask advice about my relationship and was so impressed by my feedback on the first post I continued. I don’t need to make things up, truthfully it’s the last thing I even need in my life right now. This post I will go over some important things people seemed to miss on my 3rd post. -My girlfriend is very insecure about me having girl friends and is always looking at my phone “who is that girl” “the moment she wants to hang out with you alone is when I draw the line” -I’m 20, yes i’m 20. My age never fluctuated my whole week of being on here: -I brought up that I was slightly off put by her going with a guy i’ve never met but was okay with it because she told me it was just pizza and coming home -When I offered for him to come over both times it was a different excuse: 1:Friday’s is our special day 2: He has coupons and it’s a waste of groceries So mix...
