BF is 23 and living at
home. His mother is constantly hovering over him. If he's at my
house, she'll call at 10:00, reminding him to come home before it
gets too late. She insists on serving him dinner, and pouts if
we decide to eat out (like a real date, WOW). She's always very
excited to see him, calling him her first born, and gives him a
big hug and lots of kisses. Then, she hangs on him for at least
15 minutes, not letting us do what we came into the room to do in
the first place. She tells him how lonely she gets when he's out
with me, and how she's always "wishing" for him to come
back to her. She even makes sexual jokes and comments, telling
him how sexy he looks in his shorts. One time, she even pretended
to grab his butt right in front of me! At the dinner table, she's
constantly winking at him, very obviously, like I'm just his play
thing and it's an inside joke between them. It was a joke at first,
but now it makes me really uncomfortable. Going farther, she's
told him things about her own sex life that no parent should ever
share with a child. She treats him more like HER boyfriend or husband
than her son. She even goes so far as to ask him to pay her mortgage
and credit card bills (he's no millionaire, either! and he's trying
to save up to go back to school). BF also has a younger brother,
but she never treats him this way, only my BF. He's a good son,
and never wants to offend her. I'm not even sure that he sees a
problem with her behavior. We've talked about having a future,
but I don't think it's my place to bring up these issues with him
right now. I will say that IF there is a future in it, this behavior
will NOT be tolerated.

It was November, around
Thanksgiving. DH and I had been married since July. DH was 21
and I was 18. We went back to his mom's house for Thanksgiving,
and he ditched me 4 out of the 5 nights to hang out with his friends.
When I asked if I could go, he said, "No," because there
weren't any places there that allowed minors. So, I had to sit
4 out of the 5 nights with his mom. It was awkward because it was
only my 3rd time seeing her. By night # 3, I was pissed. I said
that I was moving out when I got home. MIL had the nerve to tell
me, "Don't get mad at him, because his friends are his family.
And, don't break his heart, because I could have stopped your wedding."
Of course, DH (whose cord is still very much attached) told me that
she was joking. Going on 5 years of marriage, and every visit is
he!!.

My MIL is absolutely
insane. DH and I are only 19 and 21. DH had a child when he was
18, and needed MIL for support until I came along. Now, we are
married, and we don't need it. So, we set some ground rules. DH
wants MIL to treat me like DSD's mother. I am the only mother she
knows. Her real one abandoned her 7 months ago. She lashed out
and threatened to beat me up. A 19 year old PG girl. That's mature.
So, now she is going to take DH to court for grandparent's rights!
She pops prescription meds that treat anxiety and panic disorders,
and drinks beer all day. She doesn't need to have our DD while
she's alone!
Signed - Criminy!
