hillaryandmikesbaby (882.9 days ago) Ughhh don`t get me started with my MIL.. i love her, she is a great lady and would do anything for us. With that said.. I swear she is Marie from Everybody loves Raymond.. she has a way of saying things where your like `wait.. what the F did she just say to me?` and god she and my mother constantley talk about eachother to me... my SO side of the fam is VERY italian and my side is sooooo not italian.. so its a cultural thing.. drives me up a wall.
Str8 As (882.9 days ago) Don`t get me started on mine!! She expects us to pack up three kids so she can see them! However she can manage to get everywhere else. All of the other grandparents come over and they call regularly just to check on them. Then she calls when she needs something, not just to say hi to her grandkids or her son for that matter! She didn`t even call to wish my daughter happy birthday last week, but I am sure she will be calling within the next few days because her bday is coming up. Basically the world revolves around her! Yes the request is very rude. She want the item she should come get it unless she was ill or the car was broken.
blondie9504 (882.9 days ago) Well my SO doesn`t talk to his parents so I`m lucky there. But my Mom is the same way and she`s a horrible packrat! The woman will keep anything broke or not, it doesn`t matter. I dropped my cell phone in a cup of juice and it got ruined so when I went to buy a new one she was with me. They said they`d give me $25 for my cell phone so I said fine, keep it. She threw a fit in the store because she wanted a damn cell phone that didn`t even work, it wouldn`t even turn on! How embarassing!!! Not to mention they were going to give me $25 towards a new phone and I was poor at the time so it sounded good to me. My Mom is psycho anyways and she isn`t allowed anywhere near my daughter because she called me in the middle of the night and told me I was going to die in a car crash. She was screaming and crying and wouldn`t even give me a chance to tell her I wasn`t going to be driving any time soon. I had recently m/c and I was 9 weeks pregnant at the time. She kept calling and screaming and saying the same shit over and over. Well then she proceeded to call my SO at work and tell him the same thing! My SO works night shift. We were both still pretty worried about another m/c at the time so we were trying to take every precaution we could and she did this. It was so horrible! I ended up having the police go get her and having her admitted because I couldn`t deal with her being psycho and calling me screaming. I couldn`t turn off my phone because we only have one car and my SO was going to need a ride home if he couldn`t find one at work. So my SO wont speak to her at all and I talk to her maybe once a month but she`s still being psycho so I try to avoid her at all costs.
