We had to move to a different
state, and begged MIL to buy a computer. It would be so much easier
if we could email pictures of our kids. And, with the time difference,
we could keep up via email. No way. She would not purchase or
learn how to use a computer. BIL1's (the golden child) wife had
an affair and left him and their DD. BIL1 then proceeded to have
an affair with BIL2's wife. That split up BIL2's marriage, but
he is still the golden child with the golden granddaughter. That
golden granddaughter went away to college. She is a sweet girl
who forwards lots of emails. We noticed one with MIL's very unusual
name in the address. DH checked. Sure enough, it is her email.
Very casually, DH asked his father. Sure enough, his mom went out
and bought a computer! Last week, we got the packet of school pictures,
and I am not sending any to her. We will see how long before she
notices that she did not get pictures, and before she cares to tell
us about her new computer and email address.

It just so happens that
my DH's sister and her FDH were to get married about a month apart
from DH and me. Now, our wedding was very small and was out of
town. SIL's wedding was huge and in town. MIL did nothing to help
us plan for the wedding. She and her husband paid for one dinner
for six people the night before the wedding. The only reason why
we chose that particular restaurant was because we thought we were
paying for it. And, they bought us a clay vase as a wedding gift.
However, MIL has done extensive planning and paid for a ton of stuff
for SIL. I understand that traditionally the bride's family pays
for the wedding. We had a great wedding paid for by my father and
us. But, to not even help plan or significantly pay for a part
for your son's wedding? She didn't even dress up for our ceremony.
But, she's having a dress made for SIL's wedding. How can I have
a relationship with a woman who has no interest in us? I don't
expect money from her. It just would've been nice to feel that
she was interested, happy, or even cared about the fact that her
only son got married.
