Does this type of mother-in-law sound annoying? |
My mother-in-law is a complete alcoholic control freak. Normally she is 2000 miles away from us so I am not too bothered but:: I feel her presence even when she is not here. I have a career. In addition, my husband and I exercise at least 30 hours a week (bike riding, jogging) what have you. We also have a side business to help us hopefully one day retire. My husband also likes to do outside activities like go to plays, symphonies, or whatever. What I am trying to say is that we are very busy. We have a hard time taking off work for vacation but we try twice a year (one major, and one minor). However my mother-in-law thinks we should spend our vacation with her even though her husband (she has never worked) is retired. I try to give her this time. However she turns sometimes into a complet witch! I also feel her presence in my house every day because she is a big chef (she has the time) and my husband tries to be this way too. Our kitchen is alway messy and I am exhausted it would seem your husband has chosen a wife not unlike his mother,both outspoken,both headstrong and both who love him,,for her 2000 miles wil be a long way and yes you are busy but i doubt she actually realises how much,,her life at home is very different from yours,you go to see her in her home and it probably is strange,,for both the women in his life,,if you feel your m,in law at your home even if she isnt there it would seem you are mentally letting her in so can you maybe make the cooking time about you and your hubby,,cook together,make the kitchen a place where you both feel at home,,and if he can cook better than you,make it a fun learning lesson,even 'have some fun' in there too,give you and he the right to your own home with some memories that can be triggered in that special way,,for you to feel this way is not good but i doubt your hubby truly understands the feeling of invasion,,the mess you will have to talk to him about but the mother in law,,either talk to her,,really get some good conversations going,,try to get a little more emotionally closer to her,,she may actually feel like the one on the outside,you and he are successful and dont have the time to be close as she may want you both to be,,this may come accross as domineering but if she is a woman used to getting her own way she may not use the time she does have with you and your husband ,very constructively.she isnt going to go away so to keep yourself sane ,,try to get on with her ,have a laugh with her,try to get to know her as a person and not THE MOTHER IN LAW ,, Buy a gun !! ALL mother-in-laws are annoying!!!!!!! it an unwitten law! Yep Wise up and go on a vacation. Your MIL can cook in her own kitchen. as long as she is not around all the time why do u have to bother.....take charge of your own feelings....its not her thats the problem currently.....its your own thinking thats bothering.....i would have taken her as a pain had she been around which she is not..... Um yes she does sound annoying. In experience from my mother (who is insane) I've learnt that you just need to do things your way. If you dont have time, so be it, dont stress yourself out over people. Only you. Youre living your life, not hers. |
