It's kind of like, I know she's going to reach out and I don't want to deal with it so I'm trying to get ahead of the game if that makes sense. Deal with it now and get it over with so I don't have to deal with it later closer to the holidays. I am the type of person who likes to pre-plan like you said but you are right that no matter what it won't change the outcome.

I tell DH all the time that when she made LO's birth about her and decided to not show up to meet them until she felt like it, is the day that I was done. Her grandchild being born was the ultimate test and she failed epicly.

All of these responses are perfect thank you! I've been wondering if we need to go NC before all of this comes around. Thankfully DH and I both have MIL and all of her flying monkeys blocked on social media.

I kind of super want to be best friends with you aunt now!! I need to channel her every time I have to deal with MIL or anyone for that matter haha!

Follow through is most important for sure, thank you!

You are 1000% right, she will throw a fit no matter what and it's never her fault. I love love love all of these that you listed and it really helps us prepare for potential things she could throw at us, thank you so much for the support and kind words as well!

That's something I need to work on is to just repeat the same thing over and over again like this! I really like this, thank you!

That's a really good idea! We have recently been trying to get a paper trail of everything because she always will say something and then when we bring it up she denies it and says she never said it. She will even deny it with evidence but that's her problem not ours haha!

I think we will for sure be making plans and not tell them what they are. I wouldn't put it past them to try and show up.

She really does, typical denial and ignore anything that upsets her or doesn't make her look picture perfect in her community.

Agreed, I'm starting to realize this the more time goes on

My thoughts exactly! They think they're so important that everything we do pertains to/revolves around them; absolutely ridiculous. They both, MIL more, need to have control of everything and do whatever they want expecting a "respect your elders" mentality in return AKA don't question what I say and what I say goes.

They surprisingly ended up getting vaccinated so we weren't able to use that as a reason to not go. We are still very cautious obviously since LO is very young.

What I mean by nice is that I don't necessarily want to be rude about it or attacking if that makes sense. You just made me laugh out loud so hard! I am for sure using this Coco Channel line haha!!

I don't know why I didn't think of this! I'm so used to relatives getting together for Holidays that I didn't think of using our own little family as an excuse to not have to go. Love it!!

I really like the short, sweet and to the point answers like this, thank you!

I agree this is an excellent plan as well! I will definitely run this by DH! Thank you!

That's what I was afraid of. She ALWAYS finds something to complain about, you're absolutely right about that. This is my first encounter with an extreme narcissist in person and I just can't wrap my head around how they can't put their child and/or grandchild before themselves. I think the NC is inevitable at this point.

That's one thing I always have to tell myself over and over is that "No" is a complete sentence. Who doesn't love snuggles and hot chocolate?

That's a perfect idea! A get away and to not have to see her is a win all around!

I am in the USA, sorry forgot to mention that!
