On Saturday afternoon, my mother-in-law came home, threw a bag of minced meat on the table and went back to work.
Evil mother-in-law - grief in the family? First, we need to understand why she is angry at all, whether it is justified. Secondly, it is best to immediately solve all possible problems and let go of resentment, if any.
It sounds really simple in words. But in fact, it turns out that not always the reaction of the mother of the husband is adequate and serious. This is the situation the heroine of today’s history faced. What happened and how the wise Elena resolved the conflict, read further in the article.
When my husband and I signed, we had nowhere to live. Dima has his part in his mother's 3-room apartment. But selling it and splitting the money was out of the question. So we decided to move in with our mother-in-law and slowly save for our house. Although I initially offered to rent an apartment, my husband was against it.
Galina Petrovna immediately warned me not to pretend to be a mistress in someone else’s house. I honestly didn't plan to. I did not want to change her order and always behaved calmly.
On weekdays, my mother-in-law returned from work before me and Dima. She was cooking dinner, and in the evening we were together at the table. And on the weekend, Galina Petrovna had another part-time job, so I was in charge of the kitchen: I cooked lunch and dinner. Everyone was happy until recently.
On Saturday afternoon, my mother-in-law came home, threw a bag of minced meat on the table and went back to work. I was already cooking for dinner, so I put the mince in the freezer so it wouldn't spoil. It seems logical, doesn't it? But in the evening, my mother-in-law made a scandal, because she was going to cook patties. And now nothing, because I dared touch her mince.
For the record, we have an abnormal heat, we can't breathe at home, this mince would be rotten if I didn't put it in the freezer. My arguments Galina Petrovna was not convinced. If she had just warned me in advance, I wouldn't have done anything. But instead, she started yelling at me and saying I had no right to touch her things or food.
Since then, I have not touched anything that belonged to her. I rarely talked to her when needed. After that incident, a month passed, the anniversary of the mother-in-law was approaching. For her birthday, she bought an expensive trout, wanted to surprise the guests. She was so proud of her purchase that Dima and I just kept buzzing.
On the eve of Galina Petrovna in full preparation for the arrival of guests. I helped her, did everything she asked. In the evening she went to bed, and at night she went to the kitchen to drink water. I see that fish on the table. First I wanted to put it in the fridge so it wouldn't spoil. But then I thought we had already passed this stage. Especially mother-in-law could pick up trout or something like that.
I didn’t touch anything and went to sleep. And the next morning I woke up from the cries of Galina Petrovna: “Nightmare!” Dima, my fish is ruined! What do we do now?! My patience ran out when my mother-in-law told me that I heard myself getting up at night, saying I couldn’t put trout in the fridge. She accused me of not doing it on purpose!
I started packing my things and went to my parents. I told my husband that I would no longer be under the same roof as my mother. Either we rent an apartment and live like a normal family, or we get divorced.
Thank you Dima, he understood me and quickly solved this problem. Now we are renting a small 1-room studio apartment and continue to save for our housing. I don't talk to my mother-in-law anymore. It's so calm!
Unfortunately, common sense is not inherent in all people. Whether it is an evil mother-in-law or a demanding husband, it is very important to protect your personal boundaries and be able to fight back. Elena succeeded because she did not tolerate unfair treatment. We hope her story will serve as an example for many!
