Mother-in-Law HELL

Right from the start I thought there was something about her the way she grilled me, it was worse than a job interview. She was always commenting about my figure I am a size 6-8 and she goes on about how she was like me and any other girl thinner than her, she has been on a diet since I met her, but never loses any weight.

When my Mum had cancer, she grilled me again and was really quite mean until I had to turn away sobbing. When we lost our baby, she was at another sons house looking after them cos the wife had a cesarian, wow! She didn’t give a crap about us, she just stayed there. She is so mean she told her friend off for offering to buy my friend and I a coffee when we bumped into them at a garden centre.

My boyfriend and I have been together 2 years, and we’ve wanted to get engaged for the last year, but his mother does everything she can not only to not allow an engagement, but to drive me away completely. It didn’t take long to realize she didn’t like me, from the very first time I met her she made it quite obvious. We both grew up in a very old fashioned city with a lot of money, and I come from a very old traditional family. His parents have money too, and we both went to separate private high schools and the same university. I’ve never been involved in debutante social kinds of things, and his mother can’t stand me. She is constantly making passive aggressive comments about how my mother was in the wrong social club, and I didn’t go to the right high school, and I am not…

Oh how inoccent she plays, this girl is the beast of all beast. When I first started dating her brother I thought she was okay but HE warned me to leave her alone. He told me she was nothing but trouble but I didn’t listen. We will be married ten years very soon and on the vurge of divorce because of his nut job family, mostly his sister. I can’t tell you all she has done but I will share a few things to the most recent. While I was dating her brother she always had something to say about my wieght, my makeup, my hair and it was never nice. I noticed she always compared herself to me, her being better ofcourse. Well after the wedding my husband and I had a baby that was born premature. I didn’t let my sil in the room with me because my…

I am Canadian and live in the UK with my English husband. It can be very difficult for me with all my family and friends 3000 miles away.

I put up with a lot from my MIL who made it clear that I wasn’t good enough for her son from the beginning. Normally I wouldn’t roll over so easily, but social rules in England are complex and you can’t just tell someone where to go regardless of what they’ve done or you become the outcast. I also didn’t want to cause problems for my husband, even though he never once stood up for me. Christmas 2007, however, was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

We spent xmas in England with his family. Regardless that I was very homesick, she went out of her way to make me feel unwelcome and ruin my xmas. In the span of 48hrs she did the…
