mother in law from HELL

She was lovely at first but after sbe got evicted from her house and i kindly allowed her to stay with us shes just taking control. Its like shes jealous of mine and her sons relationship. We was sat in bed last night watching a movie and she came to join us i was like haaaa naa.. shes getting to comfy and seeing as my hubby os her only child i dont wanna be hard but at the same timr i dont know if i can possibly take much more. All she wants off him is money money money and its like nothing is enough bare in mind she works and earns more then him doesnt help us pay bills or even buy food. She sits back and watchs me cook n clean she doesnt even pick up her glass. I think im honestly gonna go bonkers or just commit murder at this rate.. her affect on me has rubbed of so badly that im beginning to kinda dislike my own husband cuz of her..
Sorry about the rant just dont know where to let it out tbh

Trust me i can be a big time b**** but weve been going through this for a whole year and im fed up of the far. Cuz hes just being tug in the middle. Its doing my head in. His mother is an overwhelming, lazy, obsessed, vindictive, lying, gold digging cu** he knows it bt cuz hes a mummys boy he doesnt wanna believe what he sees. So im gonna see what happens speak to him make it clear as day tothat cow and if it doesnt work then il be packing my stuff taking all my furniture and moving back to my mums. Cuz theres only so much i can take and im not about to fight my MIL for my husbands attention. Its ridiculous

Its simple! Ask her if shes found a new place yet. Tell her that by thebtime ur baby is born she needs to be out because buying everything forba baby is expensive and financially u cant do it. So tell ur hubby to help his mom find a place. During dinner time just go like " so MIL, hows the search going for a new place? Oh not good? Thats okay hubby will be more then happy to help with that " and snile oh do sweetly on ur hubby and say "isbt that right hubby?" and then one night just make food for yourself. Hubby and MIL can fend for themsleves that night. I love doing that it reminds my hubby that im not the only one who eats in this house. Then when u find her junk around the place you put it in a plastic garbage bag and tell her that u were being nice today and already started packing her stuff. Make it clear in actions that enough is enough and ur taking the lead in getting her out. But while still being nice and polite! Ive got a gazillion tricks up my sleeves lol im just mean that way

I had a houseguest over stay his welcome too, and when I get fed up, I really get bitchy. So when he leaved dirty dishes in the sink or a mess somewhere, I would take whatever it was and put it on his bed. That way it's out of my sight and out of my mind. It doesn't sound like your hubby is supporting you in your frustration so you may just need to have it.out yourself with your MIL. Give her a certain date and tell her she must be out by then, and impose conditions on her until then ie, if she wants to eat your food she has to cool two or three times a week and buy groceries for the house every other week. Etc.

She also makes me feel like when this baby comesshes gonna try and take over as the mother and push me out im getting fed up. She says snide comments like 'when my childs born he/she will be sleeping with me il only be giving it to u to feed then il take it away and when u go stay with ur mum after u give birth il be coming to sleep there to so i can look after my child' now i know my mum cant stand her n would put her in her in her place. But bloody hell shes a 45year old women she should know her place n her rights and wrongs. I feel like shes gonna end my marriage then shel never see this child in her entire life cuz i honeslty dont know what else to do and talking to my husband is lke talking to a stupid wall.

For awhile i had my hubbys cousin living with us. I was fine with it at first but it got way to much. She startef talking about getting a bigger appartement all together and she just wouldnt leave. It put a strain on my hubby n I's relationship and we had a long talk. Then we just sat down and talked to her. She had to get out on way or another. Its not easy but she talk to you MIL. She old enough that she should be on her own. I called the women in crisis and told them about the situation, how she was pregnant and we took her in so she wouldnt be on the street but now she wont leave. Within two days they had a place for her and when we talked to her, i told her that she has a place to go that we found but she doesnt have to go there but she needs to get out.

Girl where in the same position... on top of that she brings people into my home that i dont like or wantthere and if i say anything i look like the bad person. But i think its her asking for money and my hubby giving it her when we hardly make enough to get by in the first place. She messes with her money and expects us to get her out of debt and give her money everyday when she gets payed more then me and her combined. And she doeant have any consideration to my needs or that we need to save for our baby.

Trust me i want her to go more then anything. I dont get any time with my husband anymore cuz shes the third wheal and she just doesnt get the hint which iv made so clear. I feel likr shes jealous cuz everytime he gets me something or gives me money when i go out she pops out with snide comments like your mother comes first n ****. Its beginning to push me over the edge. And tbh i blame my last miscarriage on her cuz of the stress she put me under.. wev been married 1 month n not had a day to ourselves since then..

Sounds like it's time for her to go. My MIL drives me bonkers and she lives an hour away, I couldn't imagine living with the woman.
