[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh dear. You are very high maintenance. I hope you are a troll. But if you are not, learn this right now. She is not the MIL you expect her to be, so[b] deal with who you have, and not who you think she should be,[/b] (this will serve you well when you have children - they also will not be what you imagined). She sounds like a piece of work, but clearly she doesn’t care about the kinds of things you do. She’s not sentimental, and she clearly takes a less formal view of life than you do. Lighten up, Francis.[/quote] These are very wise words. I would also add to pick your battles and not one of these would be a battle for me. We don’t know your finances but since you say “splurge” often it sounds like maybe you are spending a lot on your wedding. If she knows that may make it tight for you, she may not be excited as you want her to be but put off that a newly married couple is spending so much. I would agree with her. [/quote]
