[quote=Anonymous]My mother in law has a martyr complex but also (paradoxically) is bossy and always thinks she's right. She has zero introspection and zero personal boundaries. 5 years ago my father in law left her (now I get why)  and since then she has glommed onto my kids, my family, my friends, my life. She has no interests or friend of her own and is totally taking over mine (constantly offers to help my brother's wife, joined my gym and my fitness group, goes to my hairdresser, totally took over my Pilates class and now I no longer go, calls my best friend nonstop- this summer we had a random period where my bff and I stopped speaking and I thought the friendship was over and behind my back, my MIL was calling her and inviting her over and telling her she'd "always be our family". She has a martyr thing going where she always offers to help so my brother and SIL think she's amazing but she does it to get gratitude- she has this thing where she always helps but makes sure everyone knows it so she gets praise etc. even when I don't want help and tell her she overrides me so that she gets that gratification. It makes me insane and after several years of feeling bad/ trying to help her the tides have turned and I now wish her serious harm. Like, I fantasize about getting into a physical fight with her and kicking her ass. I looooooooathe her. If we owned a gun I might try to shoot her. It's bad. But she's not going anywhere (unless I kill her hahahaha jk not jk ok ye jk but srsly). Help me. How the FUCK do i deal????[/quote]
