[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Intrusive, negative MIL: My DH is her only child, she was a single parent her whole life, they are very close.  She makes drama out of every little thing and if we do things our way, she  panics, criticizes, manipulates until DH follows her views. She can make my husband extremely anxious in a matter of a couple of conversations and then he takes his anxiety on me. E.g., she saw the dress I was going to wear to a formal event and did not like it, could not make me change my opinion, made my husband freak out, he then refused to go if I wear the dress (the dress was fine, really). [b]This kind of control on her part is allowed by DH[/b] and goes on in pretty every part of our life, cause "mom wishes us well". Often, I want to run far far away from the two of them. [/quote]

Your DH is an enabler.  He could stop this crap if he wanted to be chooses not to.[/quote]

Yes, I realize this and it makes me miserable in the otherwise happy marriage. DH loves her very much and is afraid to upset her - her tantrums are frequent hard to bear. [/quote]
