[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MIL has hurt her own feelings by making up a narrative in her head where her DIL has no problem “ignoring” her calls. It’s not about OP’s practice in general. MIL now realizes that DIL doesn’t jump to answer her calls no matter the situation and feels wounded. It’s a super toxic thinking pattern. I now expect that in the future when MIL calls and OP doesn’t pick up the first time MIL will keep calling until she does now that MIL knows OP is more likely to pick up with multiple calls. [/quote] If my MIL did this to me, I would tell her to her face that she should call DH from now on. No one cries wolf on my time.[/quote]
