[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nope. My MIL was used to being the lone princess/queen in her family of 3 boys. I think she resents they all have other women in their lives now.[/quote] Oh yes. Over 20 years ago, I married her precious Golden Child. She sobbed openly at the wedding. I have completely disrupted MIL/Queen’s and unspoken expectations when she discovered early on that I, despite being introverted, have a quick wit, sharp mind and steel trap memory. I would not be the fawning and dutiful DIL, nor her new BFF/shopping buddy. I was not entertained and enthralled by her gossip and zany stories about how quirky and funny she is (with examples). I was and am always polite, kind and respectful and never mean to MIL. I learned to go gray rock and establish strict boundaries. [/quote]
