[quote=Anonymous]OP, think of it this way. If you continue to make this about something you are doing wrong, it gives you the feeling of control over the situation. You're not getting what you want but it's still your fault so it's under your control. It's really really scary to not have control over these things. If you finally accept that it's your MIL's personality, then you have lost control over it. For you, that's scarier than feeling like you're the one with the problem. Another way to look at it is that a huge inferiority complex is the flip side of a huge superiority complex. You may feel like you suck but you suck really really badly so it's a feeling of power. The reality is that you don't suck. You're just normal. It can be very scary to accept that you are just normal. [/quote]
