My mother in law, mettle's, so much, Im not trying to disrespect her, but she goes out of her way to interfere.
Its almost sick He is 40 years old yet she still treats him like hes, 10. she tries, to take away my wifely duties, which i enjoy doing. I say tries, because, I make sure, she knows her place! To give you ideas here are some things that have or so take place.
1) she rubs her hand through his hair and said" I just love your hair like this" Made me sick to my stomach.
2)gives, him actual honey do lists, that she can clearly do herself!
3)Makes plans as to family such as Christmas and Thanksgiving, and expects, us to comply to all her request!
4)Gives her opinion when not asked for, that is none of her business
these are just a few of a million things that takes place on a Regular basis. Am I the only one out here that seriously has a controlling, and meddling, Mother in law? seriously some times, I truly think she thinks of him as a husband! no joke one time she was introducing, him to a friend, and caught her self saying husb.... then turned and said son when heard that i literally grew sick to my stomach. Can anyone out here relate at all??

The only one that should deal with the MIL is your husband. As his wife and I assume you love him, you should just keep your mouth shut and keep your feelings completely to yourself and treat your MIL with respect.

If she gets in your way, you should ask your husband to deal with her. If your husband doesn't want to deal with her or can't deal with her without her knowing you are behind of this, you should either file for divorce or suck it up.

All other behaviors are totally unacceptable.

This is the advice to you. To your husband, I have a totally different set of advice. BTW "Everyone loves Raymond" is a great show and every couple intended to get married should watch it.

Your husband is such a @#$@#. It is utterly irresponsible for a husband to let the wife to deal with the in-laws.

His parents are his responsible; yours are yours.

Don't like that? That's where fights start and divorces get filed.
