Dear Amy: I’ve been dating my boyfriend for the past year. I brought my pets and we moved in with him this past December. He’s an amazing guy — the absolute best!
The issue arises with his house. He owns a three-bedroom house.
Last July his sister and her family moved in with him.
This took the total number of people from two adults, three cats and two dogs to four adults, six kids, three cats and two dogs.
My cats have reached their limits with the children and avoid them.
My dogs love to try to be around the kids but because one is a puppy, they complained and now my dogs regularly have to stay outside or in the garage.
I have absolutely HAD IT with this family.
I feel like my boyfriend and I have become prisoners in his house because there is constant drama and chaos.
When his sister’s family has fights, we basically have to sit in our room, or in the garage (we ended up converting it to a bedroom) while they slam doors and stuff inside the house.
And if we even TRY to start to bring stuff up, it’s World War III.
How do I tell my boyfriend I’m sick of how they take advantage of him and disrespect his house and belongings?
