I can NOT take it anymore.. I think I am beyond irritated with my “mother” in law from HELL!! She is the most over bearing annoying person on the planet!
she has NOT cut the apron strings and cant fathom the idea of her son actually LOVING being with ME, his WIFE!
firstly I got lucky enough to avoid staying with her in the same house thank the GOOD GREAT LORD for that, BUT because we’re not living there we have to go visit every Sunday. Its a problem for her because we go there for only 3 hours..its apparently not enough time for her to see her baby.. who she’ll drag to the kitchen to tell him she loves him and misses him and to hug him(as if I’d have a problem with that! but she chooses to do it “under cover” as if!
I’m so ticked off with this woman that I have no idea where to begin!or what to share!
now as you know we go visit her every Sunday and we go for supper.. but instead of supper ending just there the woman wants to send off ALL the food she made to my house.. instead of sending food for TWO people which we only are TWO people she’ll send food for 10 people! and her food isn’t all that great but she insists we take it.. and it all goes OFF because we are only TWO people!
every Sunday we go home with a CAR loaded of things.. FOOD CRISP COKE SWEETS, BAKED GOODS(which aren’t great either)NOT for me I’m sure but all for her baby boy son!
what riles me up is she’ll call at all weird times trying to fish what I’m doing or if I’m making food for her son and her favorite thing to throw in my face is “YOU PEOPLE MUST NOT STARVE YOURSELVES! YOU STARVING YOURSELVES!” as if to say I’m not freaking cooking and keeping MY husband fed! the damn woman sends food to feed an army! and she doesn’t allow me to freaking cook stuff WE like because its a SIN to waste food and throw it away! and I LOVE COOKING! my husband LOVES the food I cook and the proof in that is he never wants to eat his mothers freaking food that she ships off to our house! we’re STARVING ourselves!
she probable doesn’t think I can cook!before we got married my husband and I had a tiff over the phone and in the background I heard her say “if you cant handle your PROBLEM, put the phone down”!! Can you ever!
She’ll be all smirky and smiley with me in front of my husband and like she’ SOOOO loves me and accepts me and as soon as he’s not around she’ll be bossy and demanding.
I have recently installed a house phone line.. and I think that it is going to be an action I’ll live to regret.. she’ll probably phone at all given times to check up on her baby
oh wait I was given strict instructions that every night before her son goes to sleep to give him warm milk or a hot beverage! can you ever a freaking 27 year old MAN being babied to such extents.
she’s sent things to my flat that I DO NOT WANT! her couch! her olden day doilies that she expects me to put on her couches.. she gave me instructions on HOW to clean the couch with a wet cloth every Sunday STRICTLY to keep it maintained.. hell this woman has just about told me how to do everything besides how to … with my husband!
I used to have a great relationship with the woman before I married her son and now its like she’s this obsessive compulsive CREEP that’s trying to COMPETE with me for her sons attention! she’s made me the enemy and I can NOT deal with it anymore. complaining to her darling son isn’t much help either because in his eyes I hate his mom..if I have to make any comments about how she’s being towards me.
the most ironic part is that my husband himself goes by this theory “OUTSIDE INFLUENCES, RUIN MARRIAGES!” and here he is being oblivious to his mother butting her big butt into our marriage:(
its frustrating, tiring, and emotionally exhausting!

Hi,
I have been there. The best thing that you can do is to just ignore the comments. She loves getting a rise out of you. Just smile and don’t let it bother you. Don’t even mention it to your husband.
Give the food to someone that could use it. Just take a bite full , so you can say that you ate some.
It’s not worth ruining your marriage over.
Maybe, y’all should move to another State.

I had an ex mother-in-law who wanted to make sure we weren’t live ( me & my child) She told me I was shit on the ground the day she met me ( she didn’t even know me )After I married her sorry step son my child and I were living in constance hell ( she saw to it )She made sure that we stay hungry,homeless,and no where to go.She is DEATH now and her name was Pat Garbutt she owned Laguna Beach Christian Retreat.I am happy evil is gone! But the remaining of her family still trying to hurt us from the distance and all I can do is praying every day of my life that one day I live long enough to see evils being wipe out from the face of this earth.You have one that do too much.I had one that wouldn’t do.
OMG…I hear you exactly. I am in the exact situation!!! It is totally draining and it’s very hard not to let it into your marriage. I am on prozac because of my MIL. I just broke ties with her and even though my husband still has a good relationship with her, not the greatest like it used to be, he is supportive of my choice. I had to because it was killing me! Not to mention our marriage. Hang in there, your not alone!
