I will punch this B. MIL from hell.

So violence is never the answer, but I’ve just about had it with this lady.

Long story short, my husband comes from a blended family. His parents had him and his sister.

They split when he was 3 and his sister was a newborn. His dad remarried a great lady a few years later. His mom, being the train wreck that she is, had two kids with her now ex-husband.

*Nothing wrong with remarrying or having kids with other people.*

So his dad and stepmom raised him for 25+ years, he’s 33, and he is such a wonderful human being.

The best. Like THE. BEST.

So I connect with the stepmom more, naturally.

His mom is still in his life, but distant.

She lives in a different town about 1.5 hrs away from us.

My mom, my rock and best friend, passed almost 3.5 years ago, and my dad is a POS, so because he can only ever think about himself, I cut him out. Best thing I ever did. His mom is just like my dad.

None of my siblings talk to him. None of my husband’s siblings talk to his mom either, both his sister and half siblings. Just him. He feels bad.

NOW...

She is just so inconsiderate and my husband just ignores her. He doesn’t give her the time of day or the satisfaction of arguments, but I was hoping something would change when we got married.

Yeah.... it didn’t.

This was our most recent conversation about Thanksgiving. She asked if she could sleep at our house, my husband works early the next day and I don’t trust her to be in the house alone when I’m gone. He felt bad, so he said yes, but she is just so awful. There’s a certain point where I’m like okay she gave birth to your favorite human, but she’s a nightmare.

My husband is just about done with her, but he is more passive and hates confrontation and will probably say to give her another chance. For my sanity and health, I will do what is needed for my marriage.

She hasn’t changed in 30+ years and this is nothing new to him.

HELP!! What do I do?

I’m so over this. I’m not even 10 weeks along and I have so much stress from this.
