Sometimes I feel like I''m the only one who has crazy in-laws and I start to believe that’s it’s me that’s crazy. I've always said that family can destroy a marriage faster than anything.
My mother-in-law got CPS called on her and her mother blamed me wasn't me I haven't spoken with him in 2 1/2 years has been bliss
Over 30 years together. Took over 20 to even feel accepted. I took their son that they had running around. Overheard his mom saying he should have married someone else at a dinner she invited the ex. 10 yrs in at that time.
I am not the spouse however somehow I was am still to blame for my brother''s divorce. Because I did trust her. But she''s the one who got pregnant byanother guy.
My MIL still blames me for my husband not going on a mission...36 years later!! He hasn''t stepped foot in a church for 36 years!! He was raised better than that!
Family don''t like my wife and won''t say why. We live the other side of world from them. She can do the sweetest things for them and it''s never recognized. Never had any meaningful conversation with her, very dismissively of anything stressful we go through, going on for 17 years. So sad and tough!
My brother is in this situation. He''s a Marine and travels alot, but he takes his wife with him. They blame him for his wife not being there for family occasions. But he tries to have them be there for Christmas or New Years.
Husband put his parents first. His MIL would constantly talk behind my back to my husband. Text/call in the middle of the night. They were his safety net financially and his MIL would help him hide things from me financially. He sided with his parents always. The unhealthy codependency ruined our marriage. We are now in the middle of a divorce.
My husband’s 6 younger siblings were told that they couldn't look at me or speak 2 me. I wasn't good enough for the family...my name was considered like a swear word...
My husband is from pioneer stock. I was married stupid young and divorced by 22 because of abuse so I was never good enough for their angel boy. 23years later, we’re happy in love and no longer in the family picture. Neither is the religion. That’s my fault too.
I'm sorry you have to deal with that stuff Jess. You are the best and it breaks my heart that someone can be like that to YOU. I just want to tell you Happy Birth day, week, month!! ''d
My ex mother in-law BLAMED me for her son attempting suicide. His whole family is toxic, so glad I divorced him and his family
I'm from a small town in Arizona and right after my husband and I got married decided we needed to move it to either Phoenix or here to Utah. My family blames him for taking me away from all of them. But what they don’t realize is that I’m the one that made the decision. We''ve been here five years and it''s the best thing we could''ve ever done for our marriage.
My siblings in law blame me for "corrupting" their brother. They believe I forced him to have sex before marriage. The reality is, he had done justabout everything with many girls before I came along. But somehow I''m the sleezy one (married 6 years now)
My in-laws blame me for killing my husband cuz he died of liver failure due to alcohol 5 years ago today. They say it's cuz my money bought the alcohol.
Mother in law claims I wear the pants and don’t allow my husband to do anything, which is so not true. She always makes rude comments and just says she is kidding. And she is the one who set us.
My mother in law lives in a small town in Utah. Told me if it was up to her my husband would be a Mechanic in said small town. But because of me heis a successful data scientist in the "big scary city" and now she can''t relate to him. She''s put me in a head lock before and threw a chair at me the day after Christmas. A real gem.
I taught my husband how to set boundaries and have an emotionally supportive relationship and no longer give into passive aggressive requests. Safe to say he no longer has a relationship with his mom and she blames me.
It’s a little different for me. My husbands father blames me for everything. Not my mother in law. Even if my husband makes a decision he doesn''t agree with he thinks it because of me, that I influenced him in some way.
I told my hubby if I end up mysteriously dead it was my MIL but put a hit on me so it wont fall back on her. She took off of her own kids for men anddrugs when they were little and wonders why they wants nothing to do with her but she blames me and says I''m a POS mom because I keep her grandkids fromher and the reason her kids dont talk to her.
My in-laws pretend to like me now but they have been nasty to me for years. The worst is that they take it out on my son. They''re missing out because he is amazing.
My mother in law takes her daughters out to shop and go to lunch all the time and never invites me because I''m not her "daughter". It''s hard. Makesyou feel like you''re not part of the family
My mother is exactly the same as Jessica''s mother in law. We no longer talk and she hasn''t seen my kids yet (3 and almost 2) because she can''t get along with my wife. My wife will always come before my mom.
His sister blames me cuz he never goes to her house. Truth is she is mean and he doesnt want to. I'm good with the blame
I was blamed before the family even met me, for taking the son and grandson away. I have improved his credit score, helped him get an awesome job, got him to the point to buy a house, and now we live an awesome life, but I''m still to blame for being a horrible horrible person. I even encourage him tohang with his family but he doesn''t because of how they treat me. I AM the scapegoat even though all the issues the family has existed before I was in the picture.
We moved 30 min away and she lost it. We are pregnant and she already wants to make sure she''s going to be the "favorite" gma and it''s always a pity party.
My hubby's family blames me for why we have no money and why he has to work so hard. Our marriage fails when I work outside the home.
With my mother-in-law her son is perfect he can do no wrong everything is always my fault his dishes are in the sink it''s my fault he doesn''t cleanup after himself it''s my fault he doesn''t call her it''s my fault he''s grumpy it''s my fault.
My mother in law says I''m a financial black hole for my husband & that he never sees his family..... he works in the oilfield inTexas & I''m a stay at home mom. >7< &@
Mother in law blames me for not having a relationship with my husband/kids. Wasn't the fact that she abandoned him when he was 12
Husband's family. He stopped church and no mission. His decision was made b4 me but still...took a decade but friends now.
My husbands family literally blames me for everything. Apparently he never had an opinion prior to meeting me.
S.I.L is upset and has blamed me. She even said it in front of my parents. Because since marrying her brother she stopped receiving money from him.I had nothing to do in that. He just stopped helping her because he realized that she never uses it for what it was intended for like her rent or groceries.
