[quote=Anonymous]I feel for you. I've been married 10 years, and while it's possible to keep a healthy distance from her, it's a very painful process for all involved - the mom who wants nothing other than to spend as much time with her son, your husband, who wants nothing more than to make both women happy, and you, who wants nothing more than privacy and healthy boundaries. My husband's mom's life basically centers around ours. And she lives 5 minutes away. We have seen a counselor, but that still doesn't change my MIL, whose life centers around us. She has no work, no friends, no church or social system. Her entire life revolves around when she saw us last and when she will see us again. We try to limit our gatherings to once/month. Like I said - it's painful for all, and it won't get any easier after marriage. It only gets harder after you give birth to HER grandchild. My MIL is very possessive about HER grandchildren. It drives me insane.[/quote]
