[quote=Anonymous]Has anyone been in this situation?

Before even meeting me my mother in law was gossiping up a storm and texting multiple high school classmates on fb asking questions about me. The first time we met she said I would be a geriatric pregnant woman and at risk for disabilities (I was 29), was so unbelievable unkind to me like continuing to say “your father should be paying for this week” (we paid, my father died when I was 6) and so on. I feel like she drug me through the mud for the first 2 years. I’ve spent almost a decade just bending over backwards doing everything for her. She is on the poverty level and single so we provide for her as well as plan everything for holidays, birthdays, etc. I did all her paperwork to get beautiful and brand new low income housing for senior citizens. She’s never so much as made me a cup of tea, given me a single card or gift, or offered me any sort of emotional support as a mother in law. Something came up this year that brought me back to that place 15 years ago and I feel like I am well within my rights to give up and just stop
all effort towards this woman who has made my life difficult. I make so much effort now it will
be quite obvious and I won’t be unkind but I’m matching her and just not going out of my way. If my husband wants to he can plan things or include her. Any words of advice? [/quote]
