As we cut the first two
slices of our wedding cake, I had the traditional dream of having
the top layer as our first anniversary cake. Since the ILs lived
locally, they took the leftover cake and the boxed top layer to
their home. The next day, I went to the fridge and opened the box
with the top layer of cake in it, only to see that MIL had scraped
off ALL the FROSTING from every bit of the cake. It is hard to
explain in the English language how horrified and angry I was.
They ate all the frosting, but none of the cake.

Worst gift: My MIL is
he!! bent on ruining my marriage and making me feel like nothing.
She will stop at nothing. For Christmas, she gave me a makeup set.
The lipsticks had been used, and the polishes were all dried up.
There wasn't one thing in it that hadn't been used. She does this
with perfume and everything. I don't know where it came from, being
as she only buys yard sale items for her children's spouses. I
am insulted by her constantly. For Valentine's Day, she got upset
with my DH because he didn't send her a card, but he bought me,
his wife, a card. She was so upset at this that she told my BIL
that she was going to write my DH out of the will. I don't know
about everyone else, but the last time I checked, buying your wife
a card for Valentines Day, which is also our anniversary, is how
it is supposed to be. She called about twelve times that day, leaving
all sorts of messages on the machine about how he was supposed to
call her, and that she is the most important. If you ask me, she
is obsessed in some sick way with her son. Now, we are not newly
weds. We have been married for 16 years, and this continues to
go on. She lives about 4 hours away, but she and my DH are on the
phone at least three times a day, as she is with his brother. He
talks more to them than he ever talks to me. She sends money gifts
for all the holidays that she can come up with, and then calls to
tell DH that he should feel obligated to her and send her something
special also. She tries to send money to our children, and then
calls to fuss at me about how I should insist that they should write
her a formal thank you note. She always tries to buy them off.
When they want something that I refuse to buy them, because I don't
think it is appropriate or that they should earn it, she tells them
to call her and she will send them the money right away. She was
in her 60s when I met her son, and she started trying to dress like
me. She would even come to my home and walk around with a see thru
silk gown on (and she is extremely big busted). She would hang
all over my DH, and he just acted as if this was normal and acceptable.
Really, it was gross and disgusting. When I had our first child,
she came for the birth, unannounced. While she was holding him,
I noticed that she was trying to get the blanket off of him and
then the diaper. I said, "What are you doing?" She said
to me, and I will never forget it, "I am trying to see if he
is hung like his father." Needless to say, I felt sick. I
have never heard of a newborn being thought of in this way. My
MIL is one sick individual, in my opinion. I wish she would butt
out of my life.

Worst gift: This story
took place before my DH and I were married. It was Christmastime,
and his mother handed me a large gift. I was a bit excited to see
what it was. To my surprise, it was a vacuum cleaner. She gave
me a vacuum cleaner so that I could clean the house for DH. This
might have been o.k., if we were living together.
