[quote=Anonymous]My MIL was great. She kept her opinions to herself (regarding us or our life) unless asked. She and I were friends because she respected me and I respected her. She called my DH weekly at work (I didn't know this until she passed). I didn't care. I thought it was sweet. We emailed occasionally and once the kids were born, I'd send her texts and photos. They would come to visit and stay with us for about 2 weeks around Xmas and sometimes a few days for DH's bday mid year. They respected boundaries, so everyone got along. OP, some people just don't "click." If you don't, then just don't bother trying. Be cordial but don't be rude or mean. As long as she is being respectful/polite to you, keep it light and make an effort once in a while.[/quote]
