      I have ILs but I don’t have ILs.

      So reading all the nonsense they give makes me appreciate hubs even more.

      I don’t hate mine. I just don’t enjoy being around them.
      And I would prefer to leave it as things are:
      They only know my boy’s name and I don’t have to see them at all.
      In fact, after getting married 4 years ago, I only saw them twice.
      Once at my hub’s sis’ wedding, once at his granny’s funeral.
      They don’t call, we don’t call.
      Our family events/holidays/parties don’t involve them.

      As my hubs say, "You can choose your wife but you can’t choose your parents. So I chose you, I must stick by you. They wanna be funny with you, I will make them disappear."
      And ‘disappear’ they did.

      The only time we talked about them during our marriage is just before his sis’ wedding. I asked my hubs what should I be calling them when I see them. That’s it. We never talk about them ever since.


      Mummies who are having probs with ILs, my maternal granny used to tell me "one ear in, the other ear out - it’s like cleaning your ears". That’s how my mum survived living with my disciplinarian paternal grandma. In fact, my mum is the only one who can cook my grandma’s ‘famous dish’. Even my aunt doesn’t get it right.

                buds:

                Enuf of me being an un-dutiful wife who bulllies :whut: her husband and wears
                the pants in the house and me again the un-respectful daughter in law... who can
                never seem to listen to her... :whut: ... the fat whale who cannot please her son
                aesthetically and sexually 😞 .... the incapable mother who doesn't know better
                when it comes to raising my own children :whut:.... the ill-bred child who wasn't
                raised properly by my parents...
                ..
                I truly pray that hubs will do us right... for once.

                God, wherever you are..... please ...... carry me with you if you think i deserve to...
                if you find i have done it right by you...
                *Tks RRMummy 4 reposting that piece... it provides me comfort and solace... i sure needed that...*.
                Gosh dear... i so wanna give you a very big hug right now... :snuggles: i'm tearing as I write.. all the insults that you have had to put up with..and you could still have stayed with them for 10 whole years!! My heart aches for you dear..

                It's great news that baby is now stable. 🙏 Dear GOD, as you gave buds and family a new hope, a new baby and a new home to make it all well again.. please carry her through this tall and strong 🙏

                Buds, if your DH is sensitive towards lyrics, let him listen to \"The Winner Takes it All\". Althou it's abt the losing her husband coz of adultery, I still find the words aptly describes the hurt of a 'betrayal'...

                I don’t wanna talk
                About the things we’ve gone through
                Though it’s hurting me
                Now it’s history
                I’ve played all my cards
                And that’s what you’ve done too
                Nothing more to say
                No more ace to play

                The winner takes it all
                The loser standing small
                Beside the victory
                That’s her destiny

                I was in your arms
                Thinking I belonged there
                I figured it made sense
                Building me a fence
                Building me a home
                Thinking I’d be strong there
                But I was a fool
                Playing by the rules

                The gods may throw a dice
                Their minds as cold as ice
                And someone way down here
                Loses someone dear
                The winner takes it all
                The loser has to fall
                It’s simple and it’s plain
                Why should I complain.

                But tell me does she kiss
                Like I used to kiss you?
                Does it feel the same
                When she calls your name?
                Somewhere deep inside
                You must know I miss you
                But what can I say
                Rules must be obeyed

                The judges will decide
                The likes of me abide
                Spectators of the show
                Always staying low
                The game is on again
                A lover or a friend
                A big thing or a small
                The winner takes it all

                I don’t wanna talk
                If it makes you feel sad
                And I understand
                You’ve come to shake my hand
                I apologize
                If it makes you feel bad
                Seeing me so tense
                No self-confidence
                But you see
                The winner takes it all
                The winner takes it all......

                  While that worked on me aptly, it won't work on him. 😛
