DearPrudie: How do I make my husband see the problems with this?
I just have to be honest about my bias here. I am so jealous that someone gave you a house! I’m a massive introvert too, and I feel like if this happened to me, I would be so elated I would just suck it up and chat with my sisters-in-law all every day. But you don’t feel that way, and that is totally okay.
To figure out how to move forward, you and your husband both need better information about each other. It sounds like he understands something about his family dynamics that means there’s an expectation that you live the unit that you were gifted.
If you do end up living on the family compound for some period of time, don’t rule out a cheerfully blunt expectation-setting conversation with your sisters-in-law: “I love you two, but I am antisocial and I will short circuit if I don’t have eight hours each day when I don’t have to talk to anyone. I know that makes me an oddball in this family and I am so afraid of hurting feelings, but during the week, I’m mostly going to be in my introvert den and I will let you know when I want to hang out.
Thanks for dealing with me and letting me love you from afar. If I can do this I’ll be so much more fun when we do spend time together.”
