My SOON to be Sister-In-Law.
You see, this is kind of confusing in my position. My brother Bryan got his fiance Stephanie, I guess you could say fiance, pregnant. The only bad thing is every time I do something that seems okay to do, it's always WRONG to her. First of all, last New Year's Eve, I stayed the whole week with Bryan and Stephanie. We get to the party house, and my other brother Michael and his wife Brandy walk through the door with her younger brother thats my age (Brian), and so I go talk to them for like maybe an hour? So Stephanie gets jealous. She goes off and tells my mom. To make this short, my mom and I ended up getting into a fight that night.
Second of all during Thanksgiving break I stayed with Michael, Brandy, Stephanie, and Bryan. (They moved in with eachother) Stephanie was never home, and when she got home she would always close the door to her room, so I figured she didn't want anyone to go in there, so I just didn't bother. But then she starts sending me messages on MySpace telling me that I'm not talking to her and that she feels left out because I'm not including her! WHAT THE HECK! She sure isn't trying so hard to talk to me! So then on Thanksgiving night at about 10:30. We all got into a fight, Michael and Brandy on my side, and Bryan and Stephanie against us.
So that night I stormed out of the house for about an hour. Everytime I would walk by the door, they were still arguing. After they were done arguing someone finally came outside to look for me. After they found me, we all sat in the living room and talked it out.
(I'm sorry this is soooo long you guys, I just have to get this off my chest.)
Things got better once we started communicating. BUT! After that, New Year's comes along again. So she decides to pull the whole thing all over again!! It's getting very old!
Everyone in my family is getting annoyed by her being all baby-ish and having everyone baby her all the time!
I don't know what to do.
Please help!!!
-Thank you SO much!-

sorry but alot of it has to do with her being pregnant. people that are preggo are moody like you have no idea and are very short tempered.. do i what i do to my mother.. i just nod my head and say yes to whatever she says and go and do what i want.

I don't think its necessary to tell your brother nobody likes her as was suggested. All that will do is get him mad at everyone and upset about the whole thing.
You do need to get together and have a talk with Stephanie. You all need to stop babying her. She is probably having hormone overload if she if pregnant... let your brother baby her if he wants to, you don't.
Let Stephanie know that her behavior is getting old. Since it seems most of the fights happen at get togethers, it might be good to talk to her before you go to that next party or family function. It sounds like she enjoys being the center of attention. Get with the rest of your family and don't let it happen anymore. :)

Okay, here's what you need to do. Since she's the immature one here, you need to step up and show everyone else you're mature (which you sound like you are). AS SOON AS she does something again, confront her. Don't say "hey grow the %$#% up," (even though she needs to) but make sure she knows your side. Say she pulls a myspace stint again, saying you won't make effort. Send her back a message as soon as you get it saying what you said here, "well I wouldn't have known you felt left out because you go in your room and shut the door." and then try to talk to her about it in person, alone. People will start catching on that you're being the logical one and she's just starting drama for no reason. You're not going to get rid of her, it sounds like, so just try not to let her get to you and let her know you're going to stand your ground. Good luck!
