I feel like I have broken
my DF's family apart. FMIL had led the family, and was in everyone's
business. I came along and tried to blend in with everything.
She was always rude to me. I tried for over a year and a half to
keep the peace. I was always polite and invited her to go places.
I would hang out at her house with her. One night, she backed into
my car. She then lied about it, although it was clearly apparent
that she had, in fact, done this. She had fresh damage on her car,
in the exact spot that it would have hit my car. My FDH confronted
her about this and she denied, denied, denied. I said, "Fine,
if she says she didn't do it, then I will drop this whole thing
and take the high road." My only change was that I would
no longer go to just hang out at her house. She wouldn't stop telling
everyone that she knew that I was lying about it. She told everyone
that DF had intentionally "ripped" her bumper. Again,
I just did nothing in the hopes that we could have a civil relationship
and not have a Jerry Springer moment. The ball finally dropped
today. Last night she had a dinner at her house. She had invited
my FBIL, FSIL and some other friends. She is engaged to a convicted
(went to prison) murderer, (she refuses to believe that he did this).
During the dinner, someone asked where I was. She said that I didn't
want to be a part of the family. Her DF (aka the one who killed
an 18 year old boy) leaned over to my FSIL (whom I am very close
with) and said, "She is SUCH a bitch." SIL relayed this
to me today. I was at a loss as to what to do, and I finally told
DF. He was livid. I appreciate him being on my side. He confronted
his mother about this. She said that I was acting like a b!tch,
so it was OK for her DF to call me this. Obviously, this statement
infuriated my DF even more. Now he has told her that he is certainly
not going to her wedding. She told him that she is not coming to
ours. I feel like I am the cause of all of this! I just wanted
everything to go away, and I didn't want this horrible drama to
happen. My family gets along so well, and everyone loves each other.
My parents are still married after 30 plus years, and I just can't
believe that this is happening. Is it my fault for "acting
like a b!tch", and also telling my DF about what her DF said?
Am I justified for having told FDH?

Worst gift: How about
a MIL who excludes you intentionally with the type of gift they
send? I've been married to my DH for 8 years, and we have 2 children.
MIL sends us a case of steaks for Christmas. I have been a vegetarian
for 20 years. She is just vindictive!

Of Marriage, And Still Not Accepted
