        Not her blood really reminded me of my mil. At times, when I'm not well, I will ask her what to eat or boil to drink, she will say not sure.

        Then few days later, my sil got the same illness, mil knows what to cook or boil for her. See different standard. Heart-ache..

        Frankly speaking, I treated my mil better than my late mother. Because she helps to look after my kids. I tried my best to take over the chores whenever I'm at in law house. But this is the treatment I get. I don't even think of asking her to cook or boil for me. I just ask for any other alternative beside seeing western doctor.[/quote]ask her dear daughter to look after her when she's old... lets see if she would...

        being dil, we cannot defy our mil, if we do, we r labelled as bad, evil, unfilial!
        when their own dd defy them, they are just being wild, not sensible enough...

        afterall, i sometimes wonder why i need to be so upset about having such pil... they should be insignificant in my life...

          [quote=\"Glacier\"]My Mil acts very cool and kind in front of us. Behind that fake smile and gentle voice is a devil in disguise.


          I can identify with that...whenever we visit them and hubby is out of earshot, her horns appear with that tone of hers :mad: The moment my hubby walks into sight, those horns disappear and she smiles...it's very scary. How could she be like that ? My hubby would never believe me if I tell him.

          My hubby makes it very clear to his mother from the first day of marriage that if she bullies me is the same as bullying him so she will try her best to be nice to me.[/quote]ur hubby is so good.... envy... :grphug:

                  That bracelet is for himself…that hubby suddenly vain. His mother saw him wearing and told him it will look nicer on HER. If she took away what hubby bought for me, sure have Hurricane SANDY in her house.

                    PIL recently tried to rope me in to patch relationship between them and DH. Oh why should I even bother after all the sabo, lies and picking consistently for the past 10+ years.


                    Just listen and smiled.

                      Sorry to say this...don't bother. Blood thicker than water, they will find a way.
                      Furthermore, PSLE results will be released and they might just turn the tables if you patch them up.

                        [quote=\"straffan23\"]You ladies here makes me feel so envious, lar... :oops: My MIL comes over to my place 3 to 5 times a day, everyday. The current arrangement is already the best so far - weekdays, she comes over as and when but I am at work (hence, can die cannot fall sick else will have to deal with MIL at home!). Weekends, the moment she comes or calls, I ask my children to go wake papa... so she doesn't call/come over too early like she used to! Imagine she used to come at 7:30am and my husband wakes up at 10:30am!! :yikes: :yikes: So halfway she might get bored or gan-cheong, she will goto my room, sit on my bed or next to it, then chit chat with my half asleep husband! :siao: :siao:


                        Let's not even get started on MIL's daughter's tactics!!

                        You are still better off than me. :rotflmao: I am a SAHM and i stay with my in laws.... 😓

                        ai ya me too....

                        but we moving next yr... cant wait.... =)[/quote]Congrats on getting your own house 😄 i will not be shifting til PIL are not around.... 😢 another 10-20 yrs..... 😢
