So my fiancee dated a girl, Olivia, a long time ago (5 years ago), it didn’t end well – my fiance broke up with her because he just didn’t have the same feelings for her and they just werent connecting. His Mom (Lisa) really really really liked Olivia and she felt bad for the girl when they broke up because Olivia was heart broken and upset. Olivia now lives in New York and we are in Wisconsin.
I have been with my fiancee for a few years now. My future mother in law expects her son’s wives/girlfriends/fiancees to think she is just the most wonderful thing and to almost be afraid of her and bend at her every whim. I am not this kind of girl and I believe in standing up for myself and being reasonable. Thus has created a rift with the mother in law because she wants me to be afraid of her and kiss her feet. She has gone as far as asking me not to invite my fiancee’s step mother to the wedding, and she also requests that she have SPECIAL things at our wedding (things not even MY parents are getting), she also texts her son and says "Who is your favorite? Your fiancee or your mother?" she isn’t joking and does it with mean/bi*chy intentions.
Olivia has since been back in the picture, calling his mom, telling her how beautiful she is, talking to her often, she has started to talk to his brothers and his aunt/uncles again. She knows that my fiancee and I are together and are getting married. She tells my future MIL that she does it because she knows it pisses me off. Olivia and I have never met. My MIL thinks this is funny and eggs it on. In return she tells Olivia how much she misses her too and how she hopes she visits soon – and that she can see how much more beautiful she gets every day. This is getting ridiculous. Each time getting more and more inappropriate.
Yesterday, my fiancee’s grandfather was put in the hospital for treatment of his cancer. Olivia asked my future MIL to call her so she could talk to grandpa and grandma and tell him how much she loves them and that she misses them. Apparently she has also bought a plane ticket to come visit the family.
I think this is completely inappropriate. I think everything UP to this point has been inappropriate but my MIL thinks that I just feel "threatened" by Olivia … and that her and Olivia are just "friends"
I have let it slide to an extent, but I have had it.
How do I deal with my increasingly pushy future MIL and my fiancees even MORE inappropriate ex girlfriend? This is hurting our relationship – and hurting me.
My future MIL recently admitted "I dont know you that well" … my response was "maybe if you stopped talking to his EX you COULD get to know me" … she laughed it off … I wasn’t kidding.
Thanks – and HELP!
Thanks for everyone’s responses … I am committed to him and I love him more than the world … we are moving about 10 states away from his mother so I am hoping it helps. I just graduated from College, I graduated with Honors, I have done more for her son than she does or ever did.
He is afraid to hurt her feelings but I don’t think he understands that means hurting me.
We talk about it often – and he hates that his mom and I can’t get along – and I hate it to – I wish she would take the time to get to know me.
Back to the drawing board. But thank you thank you thank you for responding
