I need some advice on the issue..
My brother is engaged, and I have no doubt that they are very much in love.
But due to (what I put down to) a MAJOR personality clash, his fiance and I just do not get on. Not that we are at eachothers throats all the time or that there is outright drama - but there is always a tension between us...and when we are spending time together (always with my brother present) we have no common ground to build on.
Obviously at school or in the workplace, when there is someone who you don't particularly get on with, it is easy to just disassociate yourself with them if you choose to. But this is my brother's fiance, and I feel like we will be in eachother's lives forever, so why not build some sort of relationship beyond "oh hey....how are you..oh ok, cool".
But is it possible to really force it? And if it is, HOW the hell do you even start?
Has anyone else got a family member, or in-law that they just can't gel with??
