      Even if you win by facts, you will lose to the TEARS.
      WOW....how true can this get. I experienced this just a few months ago. Teary eyes only....damn powerful.....immediately have to give in and stop all further discussion.

        When u r already immune and numb to so many cases? Would there be tears anymore?..either you choose to 1. Ignore and go around with your own daily affairs or 2. an accumulation of "bitterness" and "feeling of unfairness" towards your hubby who asked you to "tolerate", "give way" right?

          unfortunately (or lucky?), i will be stuck living under the same roof with inlaws. FOREVER! 😢

          only good thing is mil does cook. though her meals are pretty routine, some i eat until sian liao.
          even if i move into my new house, they will be tagging along....after few years later.

            Those TEARS, I can tell you how powerful they are…can appear like turning on the tap and everyone will say you are bullying an old woman.

            Significant other said she is starting to have signs of dementia…so it’s good to have her do something constructive like looking after her grandsons FAR FAR away.

              haha, so how are they coping with the fresh air there?

              they are not coming back soon, are they?

                Really hate my mother-in-law. Many many things happened so tired and sick of her nonsense.

                  Think another way; she gave birth to your husband and you may become somebody's mil.
                  So close one eye!

                    I don't care if they are breathing in fresh air or not.
                    Supposed to be there for 6 months, but she didn't want to extend the visa from what I last heard...or else they will be coming back end of THIS month. So peaceful without them around...yes, THEM...bcos the FIL is the 'quiet-dog-bites' type.

                      [/quote]Completely understand your situation. I moved in with my MIL while waiting for my house to be ready at the end of the year...I cant wait to move out. That's why i come to office early and leave late so as to avoid possible clashes with her. Though I go home late, I make sure i will reach home before my DS reaches home.

How did you spend weekends then ?
