[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've been married for 12 years. I've been great friends with my MIL for many of those years. We recently had some issues come to a head--issues that I have tried to talk about over the past few years. What I've learned through this is, regardless of the friendship, I'm not her daughter and she's not my mother. Since I've accepted this, I'm much more relaxed about our overall relationship. I guess I'm sharing this with you because of your "keeping score" comments. Maybe readjusting your expectations regarding the overall relationship (not just gift exchanges) would be helpful?[/quote] Would you mind sharing more with me? I do treat my MIL like a mother. You really hit the nail on the head.[/quote]
