I hate my MIL
I need to rant 😡😤, i absolutely hate her, I don’t even know how to describe her, she’s just not normal! She is most certainly not having anything to do with my baby.
Since I’ve been with my boyfriend, she’s been jealous, even told me she’s jealous and wanted it to be him and her forever (she was drunk at the time...), and that’s warped af.
My boyfriend tells me stories of him growing up and she’d always be out drinking, and he would have to go find her if she didn’t come home, and would even find her sleeping on park benches! He laughs at the stories as if it’s funny, but it actually breaks my heart hearing that he was raised by a woman like that. But it’s what he thinks is normal.
She’s never worked a day in her life and claims she has back problems and can’t work, so she’s in a council house, all paid for, gets disability benefits, and sits around drinking, watching the same thing on tv and smoking. She constantly cries that she’s poor and has no money and guilt trips my boyfriend to give her money or buy her things. She’s in debt from not paying bills and expects everything in life for free.
She wears the same clothes day in, day out, doesn’t wash, and maybe washes her hair once every 3 months in the sink. When my boyfriend or his brother takes her shopping on special occasions to get her new clothes she picks things suitable for a 20 year old going clubbing, not a 60 year old! She never even wears any of the clothes. They just go in to one of the many wardrobes she has, she’s a hoarder and her house is full of old tat.
I’m now 26 weeks pregnant with our first, and her first grandchild, and she couldn’t be less interested! She never asks about me (never has and probably never will), and she doesn’t ask how my pregnancy is. I’ve only seen her once since finding out and she just sat next to me smoking one after another, with no regards whatsoever. My boyfriend never bothered saying anything, in fear of upsetting her. I don’t want her around my baby. If she can’t make the effort whilst I’m pregnant there’s no way she’s having anything to do with my baby 😤. I don’t trust her.
I have no clue what to do, my boyfriend can’t/won’t talk her in fear of upsetting her. He thinks this is all normal, hes never known any different. But I would quite happily go about my life without ever seeing her again.
Any advice on how to deal with the situation 😅
