      Wah, opening people's drawers, fridge etc.....really no manners leh. Irritating.

      Actually, before my MIL shift in she did that too. She would complain to my DH \"Your wife very lazy and untidy. Her things not properly kept and clothes untidy\" Now that she's with us, initially I found her in my room opening my cupboard still.....seems lesser now. But just not too long ago, my hubby was teasing me about not enough working clothes, immediately she was in my room opening my wardrobe and telling DH there's a lot of unironed clothes hanging over at the other room. ACE [/quote]Sounds very familiar leh 😐

        If hubby doesn't step in, then his wife will continue to get jelak jelak with his mother. Men are smart, they won't want to be sandwiched in between. My hubby is one. He cannot handle his mother.

        Errr babe.. what's \"jelak-jelak\"? Please enlighten me. :please:

        Men are smart?

        Mine is not. He just doesn't want to handle his mother.

        In fact... He won't handle his mother.

        If you guys recall, his mom will always be his number one... well, at least
        in my case. :roll: Soo... that's already a full stop sentence for me. I can
        talk to the hand for any conflicts whatsoever. I had to fend for myself.

        In his stance, his mother will never have anything for him to handle. 😐

        However, after my girls saw how i was treated by MIL... they were always
        ready to stand up for me in any case they see where i may have been
        wronged. There was one occasion where we were informed they were
        coming when we first shifted into our new place... my DD2 came to me
        and whispered, \"Don't worry mom.. i'm here for you.. if anything.. \"I\"
        will be here to stand up for you if daddy doesn't.. cause i understand..

        Aaaww... :please:

        But i told her it's fine and i'm fine.. that she shouldn't need to help me
        fight my adult battles. I also don't want her to incur the wrath of her
        father for being a little meddler. But still thanks for the thought and
        definitely; the understanding.. While she went on to entertain the
        guests, she'd gimme a wink once in awhile as if just to gimme that
        tinkle that she's around and that she is constantly watching & listening
        and yes... looking out for me. πŸ˜‰

          ... i

          do believe i am busier with the kind of generation our children
          are in as compared to the auto-run children we were back then
          during their time mothering us... that goes for SAHMs, PTWM &
          FTWMs as a whole. πŸ˜‰
          and I thought it was 'bustier' until I read the rest of the sentence....

          Gotta be that AVATAR!!! :oops:

                  I guess depends on circumstances..if small matters to hubby, he will ask me not to dwell about it and \"give way\" since mil already old and to appreciate her help with kids and household stuff....then no choice lor...however, small matters wil accumulate to \"big matter\", then hubby will come in \"automatic\" to \"tell his mother off\" before issues turn sour. :lol:

                  You are still lucky, girl!

                  My hubs would and actually has in fact left all issues to turn sour..
                  Has soured actually.. and that goes for between me and MIL and
                  also between me & him for a good 10 years we had to be under
                  one roof. 😞

                  Each time reflections of the past conjure up in mind, i try to brush
                  it off telling myself to live and let live for life is short and that now
                  i have managed to get my own crib and lotsa personal space, i
                  shud not be grudging..

                  But still... :idea:

                  It's tension releasing to come here once in a while and gripe. :lol:

                  Let go of old steam to prepare for new steam..

                      You lucky guy. My hubby's sister has no qualms opening my drawers, fridge and cupboards to examine contents. She is NOT welcomed in my house.


                      but whatever for??!! :? I don't even like it when my kids goes into our drawers...not like we have any secrets but simply coz they have no business there.

                      Precisely, what biz does she have opening my fridge and cupboards ?
                      Most sickening part is calling HER mother and telling her ? What the hell...is she sent to my house to be a spy ?
