Let me just say that I probably don't need any more details on stories to get the idea that you two have a lot of drama and a lot of problems. His mom may not be a charming woman but the source of these issues are you and you and your husband's communication (lack of and style when upset).
I don't think that you'll be able to fix it yourself at this point as you are very caught up in the details. They no longer matter. You and you and he have issues. that's it. Go to a professional and sort them out. (PS: no judgement but being mostly naked in a pic is something you should have shared with your husband if he asked if you had taken nude photos. Your indignation that his family showed him is overshadowed by your attempt to deceive him. I can see why he was angry. And THOSE things are what you need to own rather than being mad at his sister.)
good luck. I don't know if you'll make it or not. You have a lot of work to do both personally and as a couple. Wishing you the best

I do not understand how it has anything to do with the predicament that brought You here !! !! !!
Is it me?? ?? ?? as in, however did I miss this?? ?? ??
Engagement ring guy story: We went to the Phoenix Bridal Show and one of the booths there was a jewelry company specializing in custom rings. We took down their information and called and discussed my ring for a couple months, chose a setting, center diamond and negotiated price. Paid $3000 to get the ring started and it was supposed to be finished in 8 weeks, at which time we would make monthly payments on the remaining $5000. 8 weeks comes and goes. No ring. Designer says its because something happened to one of the machines and they had to order a part and it would be done in 4 more weeks. 4 weeks passes and still no ring. Contact the guy who says 2 more weeks he promises and send me an unclear picture of a 1/2 finished ring. 2 weeks comes and goes, at this point husband and I are pretty frustrated. Jeweler says that he just found out that the ring hasn't even been started due to delays and it will br another 8 weeks. We decide to just ask for our money back and he says no refund on custom orders. We fought with him for months about our money, he wad also doing the same thing to other couples because this was his get rich quick scheme. It was on the news and apparently he is now wanted for assulting a bank teller when she informed him his money was frozen. Whole stupid mess. Moral of story don't trust all booths at wedding shows because all they have to do is buy the booth without having a real company.
Some thrive on crisis. Could that be the situation here? It's seems You
and MIL are BOTH focused on making each other look like the "bad guy".
I feel more sympathy for Your Husband and Her Son than anyone else in
this scenario that just keeps on keeping on. Poor Guy - Between His Wife
and His Mother He's getting no peace.
Glad You're going for therapy. Good Luck
Showed less then a bikini. My father who is very conservative saw the picture and after my husband calmed down he admitted it wasn't that bad. Its also a side profile shot and everything is covered. I've seen worse pictures in ads of regular magazines.
Oh brother......What hasn't happen in your marriage? Honey, you got ALOT to sort through. Kinda reminds me of having to wash laundry AFTER 2-3 weeks worth built up and you just don't know where to begin. Yeah, where do you begin with all this?
I would be calling that therapist to see if she/he has any cancellations to get you in earlier. You need a session STAT.
There will almost have to be a miracle for this to work out. This doesn't sound hopeful.
