[quote=Anonymous]I don’t have a MIL I like very much. BUT I would have loved her if she treated me like family. I am still, after nearly 20 years basically treated like I am a stranger. She’s never helped me in any way, didn’t help after I had kids, didn’t help when I had surgery emergency and two young kids at home, has never watched my kids ever, doesn’t come to our home to visit, we always have to go there, only sends home enough food for my husband to eat, not enough for all of us, always tells me how lucky I am to have her son, etc. This has been especially hard for me because my mom died before I was married. So I’ve had no woman figure to lean on for advice or for just a bit of nurturing from time to time. A hug? A meaningful smile? It would be so amazing if my MIL would know anything about me. The pp who mentioned her MIL remembering her favorite food, that would be so amazing to me. [/quote]
