coolit:
Hehee.. ..wait long long for those 'ex' ones...Thanks AuntieM, makes me feel better that there are others out there who have
similar experiences.
\"alien\" mooncake? you mean the purple, green ones?
Those mooncakes from JB that are packed in cardboard boxes.. ..
Well travelled and been thrown around a fair bit you wouldn't dare to open the box kind.. ..
Seriously, a decent one from NTUC is good enough for me..
:stupid: -
From JB in cardboard boxes? Oh dear, I did not know there were such mooncakes
around. Honestly, I think we are ok if we do not get mooncakes from MILs,
I rather not get anything that funny ones like you described or get and
get ‘hints’ that I should have given her.
These gifts are emotional blackmail. -
I have a drawer of expired and crushed tidbits and biscuits collected for my DH to consume.. ..Wonder why DH cannot see leh.. :?
My MIL expects to eat out in fancy restaurants and plays mahjong big time, yet when it comes to stuffs like this she is so 'niao'/'mean'.. ..I really :salute: her.. -
Maybe your hubby bo pian, knows she is like that and shuts both eyes to what she
is doing. That is what my hubby does but at least when I complain to him, he will
listen. When we were staying with her, it was worse.
Fancy restaurants? hmm, my MIL also, she always wants to go to Min Jiang at
Goodwood park hotel. Other places too cheapo for her, if higher class
than Min Jiang no problem but cannot be cheaper than that. -

Hi,
Anyone facing in-law issues? Can share personal experience?
DH said I'm considered quite lucky as he has heard very cham (pitiful) stories from his colleagues.
But from my girlfriends, they seem to be having a breeze and upperhand when they handle in-laws leh...
But one thing I know I'm very lucky is that I don't stay with them, bec if I had, maybe I had already :stupid: liao.
oh im a very sad person regarding in laws..
I'm starting a new topic..x -
married since 12 years… everything got changed when my bro in law got married and SIL (Jennifer) came in pic
oint family … even though I stay upstairs cook for my kids … and occasionally MIL will send food for my boys.
>> so I got my SIL 2 daughters 2 dresses… and after a month she said they ill-fit.
I couldnt return( did not have bill)
so bought new dresses …
>> she did not bother to say any thanks… and then after 5 days said…I’m so busy .
>> so she went shopping last night …MIL said she has gone to buy some cream…
>> this morning my niece said "Aunt Zara…I had gone to buy shoes…" SIL said yeah …our MIL gave her a dress so we needed to match it with shoes .
see I’m not shallow , if its not this its something else …
like this morning when I came to say Eid Mubarak(happy Eid) to my in laws they all were having tea… Gosh …I’m a " staircase" away …
this sucks…and my husband … will eat with them … he does not feel the agony I go through by constantly feeling rejected .
he says…" why do you bother"
so if someone can say more than " grow up" etc please help? -
in-laws are forever problematics…all becuz they r nt our own parents, we r only their daughter recognized by SG law.
my ILs used to the kampong lifestyle…while my side of family r the more modern type.
U can imagine the "clashes" we hv with regards to taking care of kid, etc…what made it worst…I LIVE with them…haiz…
Lucky, my hubby is supportive & my son "play" a good buffer…if nt i go crazy…
Hubby and kid play very important role in minimizing the problems btwn DIL and PILs -
chocolatebar, maybe this post comes abit late but just to let you know anytime anyone wants to help me do the dishes I said go for it!!
