[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll admit that it hurts my feelings a bit that my MIL never even attempted to get to know me and instead either ignores me or makes passive-aggressive comments toward me.  She's openly admitted that she feels threatened by me because DH is an only child and she doesn't want to let go of his childhood.  I'm actually a nice person who is madly in love with her son and feels lucky to be married to him every single day...I feel like that should be a mother's dream come true for her little boy.  But she'd apparently rather have him be single and living in his hometown and catering to her every whim.

I cope by telling DH all the ridiculous stuff she says when she's not around, and then telling my sister and a few close friend about her craziness.  We all have a good laugh about it, and most of the time that's enough and I don't let it bother me anymore.  But I confess that at times it does sting that she's so uninterested in having me be part of her family.  [/quote]
I could have written this, except I do not/cannot share her behavior with my DH.  You are fortunate in that.  My MIL is so cold to me, and I am a great DIL!  Good mom, work FT, help the kids write thank you letters. [/quote]
