Just need to rant as I feel unappreciated...

So since lockdown I’ve been staying with my fiancé at his which is his parents house. He fell ill on my birthday so we had to self isolate and happened to be here. I then fell ill a couple of days later so self isolation just became longer and then lockdown happened. My dad has serve asthma and I didn’t want to go home in fear of potentially giving him corona if I did have it. I’m very appreciative of them letting me stay here! I buy my own food, get them things if they need it, clean up after myself. Pull my weight basically!

The entire time we’ve been in lockdown his mum has just been very lazy. Leaving me or my OH to wash up after her and her boyfriend. Expecting us to cook for them a lot. Getting angry when we don’t. Not saying thank you or very rarely when we do these things for them and it’s starting to really get to me. She demanded once that we go to the shop for her to pick up a loaf of bread because they ran out but me and OH don’t eat it. OH politely said no as he wasn’t willing to queue for 45mins just for a loaf of bread which we don’t eat. One evening we decided we aren’t going to cook for them like they just assume and make our own dinner. I wanted veggie as meat doesn’t really agree with me and I don’t like eating it much at all (the others love eating a lot of meat). We made a mini roast, stuff was in the oven cooking and we were just relaxing in the garden. His mum came out and asked if the dinner was just for us two or if we were doing it for her and her partner aswell. OH said no it was just for us and his mum stormed off in a hump and didn’t speak to neither of us for a couple of days. I’m sure she has bipolar. She does suffer with other mental health issues, I also do aswell but she’s so up and down. One minute she’s on a high the next she’s so angry towards everyone and in a really down mood. There’s been many other times when they’ve just been rude but this post will just end up being ridiculously long!

What I’m trying to get at is I just feel really unappreciated. I’ve been brought up in a family where we were always told to say please and thank you. My mum would never dare sit on her ass infront of the TV all day and leave washing up for my OH to do, mine cleans up after herself straight away like I do. I know everyone’s different and I don’t mind the occasional cleaning up after others but when it’s all the time it really takes the piss. For example tonight I made tea for everyone. Didn’t quite get the amounts correct but there was enough for everyone. OH mums boyfriend eats a stupid amount. We always get ‘make sure you make enough for (let’s say) Fred’. Because OHs mums boyfriend is still hungry as we didn’t give him a ridiculous amount so that everyone had their fair share he’s in a mood with us and didn’t say thank you. Sounds pathetic but I could actually cry it’s starting to get to me that much.

Would be nice to hear people’s opinions on it. Just really needed to rant!
