- The Outsider DIL/Posted: 24-JAN-10
DH interviewed for a job about a week ago. I don't think he got
it, as they haven't called. His mother, of course, is not encouraging
him to get a job. Why should she? It makes him easier to control.
She has him around to basically be her b!tch and do everything for
her. It also gives her another reason to yell at me and treat me
like a worthless piece of cr@p. I feel that every time he goes
and applies for a job, she is telling him subconsciously to screw
it up, so he doesn't get hired. Ex: DH was supposed to take the
cars, by himself, and get the tires changed out at a warehouse store.
He told me that he planned to fill out a job application while he
was waiting on the tires to be done the next day, as they were hiring.
He also told this to MIL. The next morning, out of the blue, MIL
had FIL stay home to "help" my DH take the cars in. She
decided to take the cars to another store because she "found
a better deal". In reality, that store charged more than the
warehouse store. I cannot wait until this fall when our lease is
up, as we will have to move. Moving to a bigger apartment in the
same complex is way too expensive, not to mention that we could
rent a nice house with the money we are paying here. But no, MIL
insisted that we move here. Then, she moved to a place that is
LESS THAN A BLOCK AWAY a short time later. We can move far away
so that BIL and SIL will be closer to MIL than we are, and they
can do some of the wonderful tasks that get left to us when the
PILs go out of town. That includes tasks like cleaning up after
their cat, with no paper towels or cleaner in the house, etc. And,
they can deal with the majority of MIL's meddling. MIL has had
to go with us on several of our last grocery store trips, with maybe
one exception. That means that I get to sit at home with DS while
DH and his mother go and do the grocery shopping for my house.
It makes me nuts, because just about the only time I go anywhere,
other than school, is when we go to the grocery store. And, with
MIL doing that, I get stuck here at home even more. She tends to
use these grocery shopping trips as times to have heart to hearts
with DH. If she doesn't like something I am doing in regard to things
that are none of her business, she pesters DH about it. He comes
home mad, and we get into an argument. MIL calls him AT LEAST 4
times a day. Most days she calls much more than that. She doesn't
call for any special reason, either. She just calls and calls.
If she doesn't get him on his cell phone, she calls the house.
If we don't pick up the house phone, she calls the cell again.
Rinse and repeat until DH answers. She will tell me to tell him
something, and then call back and tell him the exact same thing
she told me to tell him!! As of late, she will not even talk to
me on the phone. She immediately asks what DH is doing and demands
to talk to him! There is not even a, "Hi, how are you?"
When we went on vacation once, she called a lot. It made DH so
mad that it was ruining our vacation. I finally told him to turn
his phone off, because she was calling 8 or more times a day and
starting fights with him. After a day and a half, I was all done
and wanted to enjoy the rest of our vacation interference free.
He agreed, and turned off his phone. It was one of the best times
we have ever spent together. We didn't fight once for the rest
of the week. The only other time we have been able to have a MIL-interference-free
vacation was when we were on our honeymoon, because we picked somewhere
with no cell phone service that was 5 states away!!! We didn't
argue once, either!!! She is also whining because we are having
a girl, saying, "I don't know what to do with a girl."
To that, I am thinking to myself, "Weren't you a little girl
once? Don't you have 4 nieces who were little girls fairly recently,
as well as a young grandniece and a great grandniece?" She
said bye to me last night for the first time since we told her we
were having a girl. She also refuses to acknowledge or discuss
anything in regard to the baby on the way. She remains concerned
about DS's masculinity. She has also started taking my son off
into other rooms when they come and visit, and when we go and visit
them. Recently, DS has also started calling me by MIL's first name,
instead of "mommy" (and it isn't like he spends a heck
of a lot of time with anyone other than DH or me), which is creeping
me out.
