[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. To the hill to die on poster - I'm 40. We've been married 12 years. Dated for 3 years before that. My mil has been a toxic presence throughout that time. It's only that I finally realized how deeply it's affecting our (crappy) marriage bc so much of dh's existence is about making her happy. When I was younger, I tried to make her like me, I complained about her, I yelled at dh... Now, because I don't have the kind of partner I want in my life, we're in therapy. She truly has mental health issues - probably similar to other older people, who didn't have access to mental health care. Like I said, we're in therapy. I don't want to divorce without giving it my best shot, but therapy is slow. So, I just got on here to see if I could get an advice to cope with a 5 day trip to our house.[/quote] The problem here is not your mil. It is your husband. Put the blame where he blame is due.[/quote]
