[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of that. [b]Because they are family we didn't pick and we have to be nice to them.[/b] Because our spouses don't always stand up for us or the young family needs over old traditions. My inlaws are nice people but i wouldn't hang out with them if they weren't dhs parents. Same for my SIL who i fine nice but grating and frustrating in many ways. But shes nice to my kids so we see them a couple times a year and its enough for me.  [/quote]

The bolded is false. You picked them.

Did you not meet them and get to know them before you married? If not, it is your fault.

Some of you need to marry orphans. lol

My MIL and I went to get our hair done before the wedding.  I actually thought she was really nice, nil problems beforehand or none that I knew of.  For some reason after the wedding things changed dramatically.  It was crazy, really crazy and all these years later I still look back on it and shake my head at the absolute bizarre stuff she did.  I have never experienced anything like it in my life, even now.

Honestly I still don't think I understand what happened or why, I have my opinions but her behaviour was so over the top I have literally never witnessed anything like it in my life and hope I will never meet anyone like this ever again in my life.  My MIL had no handbrake, she had no one tell her stop, they seemed stunned as she sat crying and bawling.  This led her to get crazier and crazier.  Honestly when she told Dh and FIL that I had tried to kill her, I ended my relationship with her immediately.  Funnily enough she was happy to still be around me despite telling others I had tried to kill her and DH and FIL didn't believe her but she never apologised.  We have since moved away.  I didn't pick this, no one picks this.[/quote]
