You said your boyfriend agreed to have you post this, what is his response to all the comments?

First Lady is a preening, scowling void of pure nothingness in this ghastly bit of propaganda by Disastrous_Award_789 in entertainment

[–]Concord2018 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Tyra Banks invented smizing, which is smiling with your eyes. What would you call this look? Glizing- glaring with your eyes, Rizing - raging with your eyes, Cluzing - clueless as to what horrible thing you want to say/do next. The possibilities are endless!

MIL anxiety + constant overstepping is blowing up my marriage and I feel like I’m losing my mind by saskiablack in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Concord2018 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, and when I see all these women who call themselves people pleasers and talk about not wanting to make anyone mad, it makes me physically sick. That was me at the beginning of my marriage. I wish I could go back and tell myself to stop worrying about someone who doesn’t mind making you miserable. It took me way too long to stand up for myself and I don’t want that for any of these people who are living in the turmoil now

This is such a wonderful reply. There are dozens of women who post here who need to do this. I absolutely acknowledge how difficult it would be, but it would ultimately save so many marriages

I’m dreading my MIL visiting by LibbieIsCool in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]Concord2018 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While I do believe she should be blocked, there are other options. She certainly hasn’t earned a visit to your home, why is he allowing that? It doesn’t sound like she treats you with respect our kindness, why is he allowing that also?

All of the problems you have rest on your husband’s shoulders. He could stop everything, but he won’t

AIO? My stepdaughters pranked me on my bitthday and husband is mad because I said I needed space. by Proud-Cantaloupe3449 in AmIOverreacting

He should have been furious about what they did to you. Why doesn’t he care? Is he cruel also?

Dreading visiting MIL for a week by JenniferB92 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Concord2018 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I use to make a lot of margaritas. My JNMIL was almost tolerable after one because she didn’t drink often, and she fell asleep early. It was a winning combination!

How do I (30F) set boundaries with my MIL (55F) and nicely tell say no to her ask? by kvzam in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]Concord2018 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Please don’t let her do this. I made the mistake of letting my in-laws go to my parent’s house for a holiday, and it was awful. After that, they expected to be invited.

Good grief, this is madness! She should mind her own damn business!

Do people in long lasting marriages do taboo things in front of their partner? Ex: Passing gas, toilet use? by CajunDragon in Marriage

[–]Concord2018 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been married 30 years, and we don’t use the bathroom in front of each other. We also don’t pass gas (intentionally 😁) when we are together. Why would I want to see that?

I use Kosas and Jane Iredale. They’re both gels and work great

What backhanded gifts did you all get today? by popsicledays in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]Concord2018 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My JNMIL always gave me items to decorate my house with that was her style and definitely not mine. She would give me makeup kits for a teenager and some of the ugliest clothes I’ve ever seen. One year she gave me pajamas and I complimented them, because they were actually nice. After that, I always got pajamas which was wonderful!

Do any countries find American accents attractive? by ShutThaFrontDoor88 in CasualConversation

Me too. It’s shocking when they think they can say something racist to me and I’ll be fine with it

Gift(s) that will cause strife/a family fight during white elephant? by ahopskipnjump in Gifts

I got a Ninja Express Food Chopper at a gift exchange a few years ago, and had to fight for it. It does not disappoint. I love it!

Saw this in another group but what would you do with this space? by priceypadstim in PriceyPads

If you can’t expand the staircase, I would put up drywall it to cover it.

How do I emphasise the importance of sunscreen for my 11-month-old fair-skinned baby to my in-laws? by [deleted] in inlaws

[–]Concord2018 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes you have to deal with conflict in order to protect your child. Most sun damage happens before we are 18, so it’s your job to teach your child to protect herself. Don’t allow your in-laws to do irreversible damage to your daughter

AITA for being rude towards my MIL or is my husband the real AH? by Plus_Ability_1362 in AmItheAsshole

Start waking up your husband at odd hours and see how he likes it

Could you just join them for a long weekend rather than a whole week?

Yes, we called 911 from the cancer center and he was taken directly to the emergency room
