Mother-in-Law HELL

DH and I were abused by his parents for several years, whilst we tried to cut them out of our lives: we finally had to leave the country to escape them. Because MIL and FIL refused to have DH in their ‘family’ unless he ended OUR relationship, he has not been part of his ‘family’ for several years. The innocent people (siblings/aunts/cousins/grandparents) have all been told crazy lies about us, and have witnessed MIL and FILs pathetic act, so we are both seen as cruel and selfish, while MIL and FIL are the ‘poor abandoned parents’.
Despite several nasty comments we got from these misguided relatives, we also got several messages showing that they still love and care for DH, but we were in no position to try to reconnect with them, because they firmly believe MIL and FIL’s twisted lies about us, so it wouldn’t have worked.

Now we are safe…

So…this gist of it:

My Fiance and I were tired of the round about with his family and decided there was no point waiting to get married. We did a quick ceremony at the court house and it was done. This was Nov. 23rd.

His family decided to leave for Thanksgiving with the rest of the family earlier, after we had set everything in motion. To be fair, no one came, only our witnesses.

My mother and Grandmother were thrilled-they are still glowing over their daughter/granddaughter and son/grandson(he’s not an in-law to them by any means ) The rest of my family and all of our friends have been so happy for us.

Everyone knows that we will have a ceremony to reaffirm our vows in a year or so and everyone will attend, even if we pay for them too; this way everyone can share our happiness.

Now the problem.

His parents and sister haven’t…

I am tired of living with my husbands family…

I want to live alone..but my husband loves his family too much to leave them.

The whole family is spying on me. They are deciding every single thing in our life. Our family is not even a family where the dad and mum takes decisions for everyone. It is his parents which are doing that right now.

He has asked me never to talk to my family members because he hates them. His PARENTS told him that my parents did something so now he hates them. And not to show my one and only child to them…my little baby. But..okay..I said fine…to make him happy…he feels that my family is manipulating me.

When I tell my husband to do the same..he says no..he is the eldest son and he wants to take care of his family etc. Fine…he is happy with his family..I am okay…

I…

I should have known the day I met my in-laws that there would problems. My husband, who was my boyfriend at the time, didn’t really want to introduce me to them because he thought I might run for the hills! However, I insisted that I meet them. So, we were invited over for dinner one Sunday afternoon early in our relationship. The guest list consisted of me, my husband, his parents, his brother, and his brother’s girlfriend who I warned was a total beyotch!

I am a vegetarian. I am not one that preaches to others about my choice to not eat meat. It’s my own personal choice and I do not expect others to follow my lead. I always call the host ahead of time and let her know that I will be making a veg dish to share with everyone, just in case she is unsure of what to…

me and my girlfriend have been together for 8 months. we are 2 years apart and I am 21. we both live in seperate houses but close to one another. So she started staying over every night of the week for a month. I have told my parents about this and they got very upset. Since I have been seeing my girlfriend she has had a feeling that my parents didnt like her. The past couple of days that was made certain. Although they cant come up with a valid reason other then a “gut instinct” they still make excuses to get to know her and try and see the girl I see. Although they live half way across the country they still have a way to stress me out. When they come here to visit they dont even want her around and I feel like I have to step…

Well, Me and my hubby finally saved enough money and got a place of our own in the country. Sounds nice huh? 8 months after moving in, his mom talks him into letting her move in to our guest house. Well, it would be alright if she didn’t undermind my authority with my kids, She buys them things after I tell her not to and she questions them about our personal life and uses it to her advantage. She has even has gone as far as telling my girls they can’t have something cause there mommy don’t want them to have it but if was up to her they could have it. I am trying to find ways of telling her to back off without offending and starting a war. My hubby always takes her side and tells me I need to be nice. Do you have any ideas to…

I have a terrible mother-in-law. I can give you a hundred stories, but I will make this short and simple. On our Wedding Day, my in-laws wanted one picture of the immediate family(excluding me–the bride). That didn’t seem wrong at all. However, this is the one and only picture of the wedding that they have displayed in their living room! I was extremely hurt and annoyed by this. But till this ten almost 10 years later, I have kept my mouth shut. I have tried to ignore her but it’s getting harder and harder. Even though I am not blood-related, I am married to her son. Yet, she treats me like an outsider. I have so many more stories but this hurt the most
