Hi markfch!
I am surprise nobody here has thrown you rotten tomatoes yet!
Why leh? Because you are a guy mah....that's why you will not have any MIL problems one! Correct me if I am wrong, usually MIL is VERY NICE and POLITE to son-in-law one!
As for me, the horror of all these MIL problems being shared here are too much for me and I feel really sad for buds.
Now I am immensely grateful that my MIL has left me alone for the past couple of years ie. no undue trouble, dramatic scenes, interfering or showing me very black faces. :love:
Thank God!

Not adding oil into fire here, but aftering reading all your misfortunes with the dreaded mils, I felt quite fortunate that all my mil expected of me was to bore her a grandson (which I succeeded, phew!). She even went as far as making an appt to a certain 'renowned' sinseh for me (w/o my consent) when I was childless after a few yrs of marriage.
Some female acquantances I knew are so full of themselves that I expect they will end up torturing their own dils in future

Hi markfch,
As far as I know, men do NOT have much problems with their MILs.
My hubby is one example. My mum doesn’t tell him what to do nor show him black face. In fact, my mum stands on his side most of the time.
Women basically are more particular about everything…that I agree, bcos it is inborn. That’s why men are more 粗心大意 and bochap. -

I agree with you. My mil is almost as nice to me as my mum. And that is really saying something. In my dozen yrs as a son-in-law she never once allowed me to do the dishes after dinner. I suspect that the unspoken rule to her is that washing is an woman's job. So my sils always do the washing. Being the obedient son-in-law that I am, I obeyed her instructions to the core

Yes, I'm also very sorry to hear about bud's case. -

Talk about 粗心大意, think my ds is one of the champions. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I've repeated the phrase 'First letter of a sentence must start with capital letter' at least a dozen times this week. Today he still write them in small caps :roll: And can still complain that he finds me very irritating & naggy.Hi markfch,

Hi markfch,
My hubby does a good job washing, drying and keeping the bowls/plates after dinner...so much so that mum expects me to do the same too
Even my brother doesn't do such a good job washing up.
As for my SIL, my mum doesn't interfere. Once a week when both come back for dinner, mum will cook dinner for them and cooking more vege bcos SIL loves to eat vegetables. -

I always tell my kids. Do you think I like to nag???? That is the last thing I like to do after a day in the office. It's so lame to nag. If you do your work properly and by yourself.... I don't even need to nag. I am nagging because you are making me nag. Not because I want to nag at you. -

hope you know by now your MIL treats you as her son
