MIL-long but pls read
So initially my MIL and I seemed to have a pretty good relationship. She’s a little different but we got along. We ended up having to live together for a while after we got married which probably started a little bit of a strain but really not that bad, and once they moved out things seemed better. Then I had my first baby and things still seemed okay. Then we moved away closer to my family and fast forward to now my daughter is 1.5 years old. I really struggle with anxiety when I go there because I’m the one who has to start most of the conversations (asking how she’s doing etc.) and she really only starts convos if they have to do with her. She never asks how my daughter is doing, she never really calls or texts. On Facebook she interacts with lots of people but never a single like or comment on any of her grandchild. I’m a hugger so whenever I leave my parents we hug and say I love you and I’ve done this a hand full of times with my in laws but ever since we’ve moved nothing. When I was there last she had a friend over and hugged and said she loved her when she left. She made a special anniversary post for my brother and sister in law (her other son, mamas boy) but nothing for us. It just really bothers me and the longer things go on and more that happens the more uncomfortable I feel. I feel sad because we used to be close and see each other every day but now I feel out of place. It’s getting worse. Like I’m really wondering if I did something wrong or what. What would you do if you were in my shoes?
