[quote=Anonymous]Good for you, OP. 
I dropped the rope- and while it benefited my sanity and wellbeing 10000x over, it has caused a lot of strain in my marriage. 
Mainly b/c DH refuses to acknowledge MIL as the source of drama, difficulty, tension, etc.

The moment I decided to drop the rope- and told DH straight to his face that I was tapping out....MIL called me personally and asked me to select a restaurant for her birthday dinner. She said it would mean the world to her if i selected the venue, restaurant, etc b/c she thinks I have interesting taste in food and was more on the food scene than she was. Slightly weird, but ok. So, I picked a restaurant, made a reservation and the whole thing.

MIL sent an email out to the whole family saying that I picked xyz cuisine restaurant when what she reallly wanted was abc cuisine. So she was taking it upon herself to cancel the reservation and move it to the restaurant of her choosing.

The whole thing was a game. A set up, a game. I told DH- "I'm out. Don't ask or expect me to do anything more than show up at events from now on. Bare minimum."

She was a first class B and I'm thrilled to be done with her :)[/quote]
