In-law problems?
-
Mamo:
Her idea was that everything that belonged to me, also belonged to my husband. Everything that belonged to my husband, belonged to her. Therefore, she could do anything she wanted with anything that belonged to me without asking. I didn't tell her off.
Isn't that too much?!?
I just kept on asking for my belongings back until she understood. For a few years after that, I was the selfish one who didn't know how to share. But that's ok. If a reputation for selfishness meant that people would respect my space then I was happy to add to that reputation. -
my MIL is person who like to whine in front of her daughter, telling her my kids are so poor thing, their mummy dun give them good thing to eat. I do not like the thing that she bought cos it is from CHINA & u noe the reputation of China thingy (somemore it is edible thing). Then nowadays she change tactics saying that the thing that she bought is actually from my SIL. My hubby is actually taking to his sister but the sister is someone who stood by my MIL, taking in every single breath n word that the mum is saying… Pissed me off…

:yikes: ...and now they want recognition for their efforts and respect from their DILs? (can't bring myself to type in the 'love' word..)LKVM:
Looks like seriously we all are some where or the other in the same boat... in my initial days MIL also tried to be violent and when my parents question she said i didnt behave and she did cause she felt she can do the her kids :faint: imagine not even saying sorry but on top of that defending what she did is right..
Oh goodness!! She tried to hit you too!! -

You are right, they like to buy those made in China stuff cos it's cheap. And she also likes to pass those snacks she got from her outings with CC or RC to my kids. In the end, they will lie on the kitchen top for days and weeks and thrown 'cos my DS doesn't like this kind of foodstuff. -

Certain things just cannot be tolerated or forgiven. Once a certain line is crossed it’s hard to go back to being neutral. Unlike most of you I respect my mil as she is really nice, treating me very very well, especially when compared to the monster mil some of you are so unlucky to have. But I have a horrible sil to make up for it. Just like what some of you experienced with your mil she has caused me a few quarrels with DH. Anyway after her recent selfish request to buy my ils’ flat cheaply there’s no way I can bring myself to be anything more than civil to her.

Ouch! That must have hurt!! To leave a bruise like that!
She held my hand tightly(the blue mark was there till dunno a week or so
) and pushed me down... imagine I was preggie that time... :faint: -
Chenonceau:
That is terrible. To use such violence esp. during your pregnancy?!!! I probably would have made a big hooha over it & I will not give my DH any peace over this - 60yrs issue man. Even now when MIL would just tap me hard on shoulder or sometimes grab and turn me over (cos' I was unaware she was talking to me), I already very buay-song. I WILL fight back if anyone try to use violence on me :nunchuk: but first of course, there will be a BIG cry....cos' I cannot take such treatment :rotflmao:
