[quote=Anonymous]OP, try and be the bigger person. Please realize that you laid out a numbered list of grievances...that says to me you are taking stock and keeping score. I will admit that many of the items you listed would annoy the heck out of me too, so I don't blame you. I just encourage you to be the bigger person. Your MIL was a SAHM and likely feels like she can't relate to you in some fundamental ways, which is scary for her since her baby boy picked you. Try and reach out and let her win once in a while. Let her think the ability to move the fridge was an outcome you hadn't considered. So what? Let her share her opinion about a color selection again and again. Again, so what? It's annoying as hell. I get it. But come on. You'd be better served allowing yourself be entertained by her. She sounds sort of without purpose and she's trying to find some. [/quote]
