[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You must think highly of yourself to assume she is jealous. Maybe she just doesn't like you. Maybe she just doesn't agree with you. Maybe she just has an opinion that you don't agree with, don't like to hear, are hurt by. Maybe some of the stuff she says is actually true and that's why it bothers you so much but now you are looking for reassurance from us that you are right, you are awesome and she is horrible. Who knows. But jealous? Why should she be jealous, you said it yourself! She's got no reason to be jealous. So maybe it's something else...[/quote]

She sounds jealous and a little intimidated or both. The examples given to me scream that she feels insecure and needs to reflect the attention back on herself, however she can get it. My own MIL was this way until she met someone 6 years ago and now happily resides in Palm Springs with her new H. Works great for us, we only see her for Christmas, Easter and occasionally one other tine.

She is much happier now so her attitude has really shifted in a good way, normally that kind of behavior indicates a deeper rooted issue within themselves.[/quote]
