Would you talk to your mil because your husband asked you to, after she disrespected you?

Question

Answer

Yes, if you respect and love your husband you will suck it up for his sake. That's exactly what I've had to do, though it's hard it's definitely worth it in the end. When she one day dies it's going to be so much better that there was as little bad blood as possible.

Answer

I have and things seem to be better, but I still keep my distance at times.

Answer

I have plenty of times. Altho one time I was so mad I didn't talk to her for a few weeks but I got over it and forgave her. We are really close and family is important to me. Its like any family member, you just forgive and move on.

Answer

Also comes down to what would u do if the roles were reversed - would u expect him to talk to yours if she disrespected him

Answer

My SMIL is an openly racist, anti Mexican, Trump supporter. She says shit about Mexicans a the time and I deal with it (I'm Mexican) because I don't want to start any grief between them. My husband is just starting to reconnect with his dad and I don't want to be the reason that fails.

Answer

I do it when I don't have a choice. We have butted heads more than once and she has disrespected me for 4 years and my husband actually allowed it and never stuck up for me. I always had to stick up for myself. She's family though and we have a little one on the way. My choices of speaking to her or not are  basically over. Still have to bite my tongue.
