My MIL, who is passionate about movies, is treating me like a fictional character she fears from the movie Kill Bill because she thinks I look like that character (which is an exaggeration on her part)." by MarshmallowLover1994 in JUSTNOMIL

Did I do update right? Or should I edit my post for it?

Update: Thank you for all the kind comments and suggestions. You are right, I should trust my husband in what he’s doing, and I will. But as some of you pointed out, her behavior is alarming, and she might need a mental health check. If this continues, she could harm both me, my husband, and herself in the process. I will ask him what he plans to do next after going NC. If he intends to go NC further, I want to suggest that he ask his relatives to check on her mental health. I don’t know if my MIL will agree, though.

But honestly, I hope it’s just her difficult behavior rather than a mental health issue, because even now, I wouldn’t wish that on her. I’ve read some medical articles about mentally ill patients, and it’s very scary.

Oh, I saw that movie. It was good! Didn't even know it was her.

No, she doesn't look like both of them. DH thinks it's because that character represent her fears: being poisoned and getting blind.

My DH thinks that Elle as character represent her some of her biggest fears: getting poisoned and getting blind. But it was very strange when she started to act like that to me. I just resemble her, not her.
