You had to open the flood gate. Here comes the strong emotions that are gushing your way. Where to begin... I used to adore my mother in law. Things were great for awhile.I actually knew her before I met my husband.We worked together for awhile. Things were great intil he proposed and since then it's been a nightmare.
I'll give everyone a little synopsis. I haven't lived at home with my parents since I was 16. By the age of 17 I lived with my now husband, his mother, and his step father. Things were great intil we got engaged. I'm truely not sure what changed. I was in school yet and working part time.My then fiance and I were working on getting a house. I would've been 19 by the time we closed and moved into the house we were getting.A week before closing the who deal fell through. I was working one evening and when my fiance came to get me he told me his mom gave us 2 days to move out! We had no where to go.
Since then things have been horrible.Things started getting awkward before we left. I no longer trust her and honestly don't like her. I'm not crazy about two faced people.She even went as far as telling my best friend and coworker to talk to me about not having children with her son because she didn't want to be a grandma! Seriously, that hurt me the most. It's not her choice and she doesn't even know we did have a miscarriage. She set up job interviews without my knowlesge then complained to people that I wasnt cooking meals for everyone everynight and cleaning up after her cat. I'm sorry but I took care of our things. (Meaning the downstairs half of the house.) I did cook dinner off and on for everyone. I don't think it was our resposibility though to buy groceries to have them constantly eaten by his family before we even got to eat. I felt bad for my step father inlaw. He's a great guy but there is only so much frozen pizza and microwave meals you can see a guy eat when his wife doesn't cook dinner for him.
We didn't talk again intil recently. My husband and his mother didn't speak either. We got married and she didn't even find out intil recently.She also didn't know anything about my pregnancy or our daughter intil she was almost a year old. I wont allow my daughter to be watched by her and we never stay long if we are there. We only started talking recently because I'm trying to be a bigger person though it's truely hard at times.So many horrible things she has done and has said behind my back to my family and my husband and it hurts tremendously.
I guess that makes me someone with mother in law issues, one of the many ladies I suppose.
