[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL doesn't hate me, but I definitely rocked the boat when I came along and didn't just go along with her passive -aggressive behavior for the sake of "family peace." [/quote] +1 I, too, think MIL is threatened by me because I am so different from her. As if it is some kind of insult or personal affront to her, that I am so opposite in every way. I try to celebrate differences in people; that is what I was taught to do, and it is why I have some remarkable friends and family. In MIL's tiny world, "different" is "negative". In MIL's world, it is her way, it is about her, or forget it; especially if it is a wedding, funeral, birth - any kind of event about someone else. I really would like to get along with her, and have tried. It is just too much work. She's not a happy person, and I'm not a professional therapist by trade. Funny, few or no MILs are chiming in. :) [/quote]
