If you have any problem
reading my story, then I am sorry. My English is not good. I don't
know how long I have to suffer with my MIL. She is the most negative
person I have ever met. DH has two brothers and one sister. DH
is the eldest son of the family. I didn't know that my MIL was
unhappy about our marriage, because she pretended that I am the
perfect bride for her son. After marriage, I saw her real face.
In front of my DH and FIL, she acts as if she loves me more than
life. But, when they are not all around, she insults my dowry and
does not give me enough food. Not only that, she fired all the
maid servants, and I have to do all household chores. But, when
someone comes to visit, she tells them that she has to do all the
work at home, and that I am the one who sleeps to noon. She makes
up stories about how she and I fight, and tells them to others while
crying. She enters my room when I am not in the house. She has
duplicate keys for my room, my drawer and my wardrobe. She takes
my things without telling me. She cut a hole in my favorite dress.
She kept some tabiz (a talisman) in my room and showed it to my
DH to prove that I am a witch. All the time, she and her DD lied
about me and other people. If anybody challenges them, they shout
that they hate liars, and state that they never tell lies. Then,
I got a part time job in addition to my studies. The situation
took a turn for the worse. They constantly pressure me to to leave
my job and study. DH doesn't believe me, as he thinks MIL is the
honest one. FIL shouted at me that I have to leave my job, study
and do their housework. He told DH to beat me. Then, I went to
my parents' house. That time, I was so sick. My parents took me
along for a checkup and found that, because of severe mental pressure,
my thyroid stopped working properly. Now I am suffering from hypothyroidism.
But still, I don't have freedom from MIL. She acts as if she is
sick. So, DH forced me to go to his house to take care of my MIL.
I went there, and for about a week I did all the work at their home.
MIL is absolutely fine. When DH is at the office, she and her DD
verbally abuse me. When anyone comes from outside and when my DH
comes, she lays down in bed again. Doctors found nothing wrong
with her. I felt sick because of a urine infections and mumps.
I went to my parents' house. Then, she told everybody that I am
not sick and that I am just acting I did nothing all those days.
I just ate and rested. I just can't bear it anymore. I want freedom
from this liar. She is not a human being; she is a monster. She
told me, "Why don't you die or go mad?" Now DH realizes
that she hates me, but he still loves her a lot and wants to live
with her. I don't know what to do now. I love DH a lot, but I
can't live in her house with her. I just can't find a solution.
Sometimes I feel so depressed. Now I don't have my job, either.

My MIL and I used to get
on great until my partner and I got engaged last summer. Everything
just went downhill from there, as she tried to manipulate our wedding
left, right, and center. It was just a constant string of bullying
and guilt-tripping. She originally wanted to make all the accessories
for the bridesmaids, and the tables decorations. But, then she
came up with countless excuses, when it actually came to doing anything.
Last December, we found out that she'd invited a whole bunch of
extra people to the event, without even asking us (most of whom
we didn't even know!). DF gave her a huge telling off over the
phone for this. He refused to speak to her after that, since she
told him not to bother visiting the family for Christmas. I called
her in the new year to try and make peace. I was then informed
that she and my FIL had decided that they now no longer wanted anyone
to attend the wedding from their side. So, she just went ahead
and UNINVITED DF's entire family and their friends, because she
felt that they shouldn't bother coming after the way that we had
supposedly treated them. I was very diplomatic about the whole
thing, trying not to totally lose it. But, I did tell her that
I wasn't happy with what she'd done. We then got an email a day
later saying that she and my FIL no longer wanted to attend our
wedding dinner, because they wouldn't know anyone there (AFTER SHE
UNINVITED EVERYONE SHE KNEW!). Also, since my dad was paying for
the wedding, they didn't feel at all welcome. This, after my parents
had gone totally out of their way to try and include them in the
wedding plans, despite their lack of financial input. My dad drove
a long way down at 1 am in the morning last Valentine's Day, when
my MIL tried to commit suicide. Thus, helping to save her life
(but that's an entirely different story). In fact, my parents'
attempts to try and build a relationship with my parents-in-law
was met with rude emails from my MIL. So, in the end they just
gave up. We haven't spoken to my parents-in-law since the email
in which they said that they would leave the wedding straight after
our civil ceremony. DF is going to contact them shortly to give
them up an ultimatum: Show up or don't come at all! This is bound
to create more drama. Won't it ever end?!
