Here's pretty much where it all began: Almost nine years ago, shortly
after DH and I got married, MIL called one Sunday to chat, while
DH was out of town. At the time, I was still willing to talk to
her. She had done some stuff that was annoying, but not truly toxic.
While I was speaking to her, I mentioned that my friend had been
over for the weekend. She said, "Oh, is SHE a friend from
college? I said, "No, HE is." Silence. Then, "Oh,
that's my call-waiting. I have to go." Click. Knowing that
something funky was about to happen, I called DH's cell phone and
gave him the head's up that his mother was about to do something
stupid. I knew it the second she hung up the phone. But, man,
who could have predicted the crazy that would come next. She called
his cell. She called his office multiple times. "I MUST speak
with you immediately. It's an emergency." What's the emergency?
"Did you know that LawyerDIL had a MAN over your house when
you were away?" And so on, and so on, and so on. I was obviously
having an affair. And, if I wasn't, how improper it was of me to
have a man at my house when I was alone. She called the priest.
She called her family members. She told her DH. All of them told
her to back off. But, she couldn't do it. She couldn't let it
go. This went on for weeks. Finally, DH snapped and screamed at
her over the phone. He pointblank asked her if she was trying to
destroy his marriage. He didn't talk to her for weeks. I didn't
talk to her for weeks. The cutoff probably would have lasted longer,
but FIL was having serious heart surgery, and we had to see MIL
because she was at the hospital. I still wasn't speaking to her.
At all. When we went to the hospital, I ignored her. I spent time
comforting FIL's elderly mother, who was freaked out by her son
being so sick. MIL's response to that was to verbally attack HER
OWN MIL, the elderly grandmother, because I had been nice to her.
For the last 10 years, MIL has been using FIL's illnesses as an
excuse to act like a screeching crazy harpy. This way . . .

My friend from college, who had stayed at our house almost 9 years
ago, is a gay man. So, DH and I got a chuckle over MIL's conviction
that I was having an affair. This led us to new revelations about
her, specifically, her belief that "gay" was just an excuse
for me to have a man at my house. People could choose to be gay,
so they could probably choose not to be gay in order to have sex
with their married lawyer DIL friend, when her DH was away. Yes,
she was a homophobe, too. For the past 10 years, I've had to listen
to her try to convince me that the "gays" were bad and
that I shouldn't talk to them. She feels that God loved them because
God wanted them to change, and that it was ok to be gay in the eyes
of her religion, because God loves the sinners. And so on. Now,
other people may believe that stuff, but I don't. I don't appreciate
it when MIL insinuates that my gay friends are going to abuse my
children. Nor do I appreciate any of the other nonsense beliefs
that she has. She thinks that gay is a mental illness. Now, THERE
is the pot calling the kettle black.
