First of all, my siblings are much, much younger than me. I am twenty and they are 12, 8, and 7. I have been more of a mother/auntie figure to them when they were growing up. They are my half-siblings, children of my dad and his wife, so I only got to see them every other weekend and in the summers. When I spent the weekend with them, the children we all so excited to see me. I played with them and gave them candy and all that. In the summers, I was literally raising them while their parents were at work.
Second of all, my fiancé is nine years my elder. I feel bad for him because it must be the slightest bit strange to have a seven year old sister-in-law. When I first introduced him to my family I said, "This is my boyfriend, Patrick... he's twenty five." We first started dating when I was sixteen and he was twenty-five. My parents and my stepmother were all steaming pissed, as I expected. But Patrick and I were stubborn about it and they eventually got over the fact that we were in love. Patrick started to meet more of my family, and I met his. I moved in with him after high school. When I was nineteen he asked me to marry him and I obviously said yes. His family was happy, my family was shocked and they tried to talk some sense into me but it wasn't working. One time my youngest sister, who was then six, spent the night with me and Patrick and I was bathing her then she asked for Patrick to wash her. So the three of us were there, Patrick kneeled down beside me, and my sister said, "Patrick, do you love Anne? Are you going to marry her?" He answered yes to both of those. Then my sister asked Patrick, "What are you? What do I have to call you after you marry Anne?" He then told her, "You can call me whatever you want. Patrick, if you like." She then said, "But I thought you were my uncle?!" We then laughed because Patrick and I did spend a lot of time with my sister, much like my sister's real uncle does with her, but we never told her that Patrick was her uncle or anything. But he just told my sister, "If that's what you want to call me, then you can." Ever since she has been calling him Uncle Patrick and my brother has caught onto that too, but my oldest sister who's twelve doesn't because she actually knows what's going on. So, is it weird that my younger siblings are calling my fiancé uncle?

They are all fairly young at the moment & obviously confused as to who is who & what they are calling him. As they get older, get their minds wrapped around who is who, what he actually is to them, I'm SURE they'll get it all straightened up in their minds & calling him by who he truly is to them. The most important thing is that they all get along well with each other. THAT IS the most important thing, You KNOW it all will work out for the best in the end,,,best to you, honey, not to worry...:)
I trust messykat... i actually won't be in a position of work out your marriage going properly in case you won't be in a position of negotiate one in each and every of those minor venture. My fiance is close to to his kinfolk and he in lots of situations forgets to make valuable issues are pleased with me, like weekend plans, etc. yet whilst it includes significant issues like our wedding ceremony, in spite of the reality that we take an outstanding sort of enter from his kinfolk, he might by no ability do something like this. you're suitable: He would desire to be sheltering you somewhat of yelling at you and letting his mom stroll throughout you. Did you point out to his mom that her son won't take her daughter as an attendant the two? possibly she could be greater effective to yell in his face. i circulate exceptionally a techniques for my in-regulations, yet i does no longer take abuse. If all the consequent craziness hadn't befell, i might say in simple terms make her a bridesmaid. If she doesn'tchronic, in simple terms get her a dress and enable her stand with you on the special occasion: what's it extremely going to cost you? the two that or provide her a activity the place she would not communicate (lol) yet seems significant, something like coordinating some area of the marriage so as that she gets a particular point out interior this gadget or something. attempt to regroup along with your fiance and notice if he can come to a place the place he sees your component. then you certainly can graciously comply with have her as a bridesmaid, displaying which you is in simple terms no longer pushed around, yet could be persuaded. reliable success.
Technically he would be their brother in-law, not uncle. So yes, it is a bit odd.
Its ok..its signs of respect...as long as your bf agree no problem..
