I am glad you got your stuff out.

When we bought our first home shortly after we moved in my husbands older brother needed a place to stay so he stayed with us. He was the room mart from hell. He is my husband older brother and he is always right. I. The summer he would bring his daughter to stay with us to. He never offered any money for extra food or anything. And the kid left messes everywhere plus she played head games with our kids.

He had to live with us for z5 years before I had had it. There have been several times when we have had to tell him he is not welcome on our home. Now that I am on SSDI he believes I am a second class citizen. I pull my weight when it comes to Our finances.

It's been tough because he is family but he has called our kids names me names etc.

You did the right thing about getting out. If you still want a friendship wait, let everything calm down. It took 2 years for my brother in law to apologize to me. Right now we are back to no speaking.

My husband is a people pleaser so he try's to keep the peace

I hope you and your fur baby like your new place

Good luck
