Vent/need advice: Marrying into toxic family
I'm at the point of snapping at my fiancé's family how most of them are liars, manipulators and sociopaths. The only ones that aren't is his dad and 2 of his brothers and the ladies that are dating the men. I'm in the family group chat and it's taking everything I can to not explode and call everyone out. I love my fiancé and our daughter but his family sucks ass. I don't know what to do other than bite my tongue and write a angry letter to throw away. It's almost monthly I find something that makes me fill up with anger and hatred. My fiancé puts it "I'm the white sheep among the black sheep family". I want to get married to him but I'm nervous of his family never changing or our daughter picking up bad habits from them

I'm sorry you're going through this. If he knows that he is the white sheep in his family could you guys just have very limited interaction with his family? I seriously doubt they will ever change. I keep interactions limited to people in my family who I don't want my children to pick up bad habits from or even who don't hold the same parenting style as us because they don't respect how we do things they just want to question and introject how they parented (times have changed). Do you have to be in the family group chat? Save your sanity and move away from the drama. If not, writing a letter and throwing it out sounds like a good idea or just let it all out vent and call them out., maybe before you get married just so they know and you know how life will most likely play out in the future....idk. I hope things work out for you, though.
