For the whole time of my marriage, I do not remember a single period when I was not annoyed by my mother-in-law. She does not shout at me, does not make scenes, but what she does…
My husband and I live in her house, so she freely allows herself to follow me in stores, on the street, everywhere. She is constantly in touch with me to find out where I am and with whom. Several times a month she consistently checks my closets.
She knows my work schedule, just try to stay for a minute, she immediately calls the boss to find out if I am at work.
She knows my friends’ numbers by heart. When I don’t answer her calls, she calls them right away. I think this is not normal.
When I tell my husband about this, he says that he does not want to spoil the relationship with my mother. One case pissed me off more than the others.
Once I had to meet with a man, a client of our office in a cafe. So imagine the picture: we are sitting with this man, discussing work issues, drinking coffee and then she appears screaming that I am a philanderer and do not deserve such a family. It was not enough for her, she attacked this man. Somehow calming her down, I went to the office, and on the way called my husband:
– I am not going to tolerate her anymore. I can lose my job because of her. Either you calm her down and we move together, or I go to live with my mother.
In the evening we had a serious conversation. My mother-in-law pretended to be an innocent sheep, but my husband saw everything and gave arguments. As a result, we moved away from my mother-in-law. Now we live separately. She sometimes comes to visit us and, surprisingly, is not offended by us.
