Was he ever sound?
I hate to leap to my typically misogynist conclusions (no, I dont) but has his behaviour changed since getting hitched or involved with the missus?

Yeah he used to be fine.
Just the last few years. It basically started just before he got married. The wedding was far more leaned to her side of the family than ours. We were just guests, whereas members of her family and his mates were actually important parts of the wedding. Infact a few of us were totally discluded from the reception meal completely!

my husband's brother did this
as kids they used to be really close, but his wife soon put a stop to that. We didn't even get an invite to his son's 18th.

any reason for him to harbbour resentment towards you?
