[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry because I know it’s cliche around here, but I’m at my wits end with my MIL. My DH works in an industry that takes him on the road for weeks, sometimes months at a time. It’s a particularly busy time for him right now, so I’ve been mostly on my own for the month. DH family are such takers, always wanting, wondering what you can do for them. It’s exhausting. Of course because DH is away so much, everything falls on my shoulders. For the most part, I deal with it just fine. I do what I can, say no to what I can’t. My MIL is so manipulative, I feel. Take this latest exchange. She texts me a picture from Christmas, said she found it on her phone. We exchange niceties about the holidays, she even asked me about how things were going for me. I answer, ask her how things are with her. She responds with, “Anytime soon a good time for you to bring DS over for a visit?” This happens every time! I would love one conversation that didn’t revert back to what I can do for them! You want a favor of me, fine. Just ask! Please stop with the unnecessary niceties. I don’t need fluffing. I can’t stand it and I’m this close to cutting off all contact while my husband is away. Please talk some sense into me![/quote]
