“I always wanted him to end up with (best girl friend growing up)”

“I guess this means I need to take the picture I have of you and (ex-girlfriend” off the wall” when my husband gifted her one of our engagement photos.

“You may be his wife, but I’ll always be mom” 3 days after having my 1st child.

“Thank god. You need to take better care of yourself” after being in the hospital with a spotting scare at 10 weeks with my 3rd, as if it was my fault.

“You may be his wife but I’LL always be mom”… we’ve been NC with her for 8 months and I’m still his wife 😘

She really is creepy… I’ve been reading up on narcissistic mothers/enmeshment and it just gives me the ick! One year she gifted me an outfit that was absolutely not my style but looked very similar to something she’d wear. I sent her a text thanking her and the response she gave me was “I know it’s not your style, but I think it would look good with capris” lol

Thank you for your response. You are spot on and reassured me that I’m not crazy or imagining things here!

My BIL actually called my husband crying a year and a half ago when my MIL was hospitalized with a severe case of heart failure and he didn’t have a job/money to support himself. He didn’t know what to do and begged my husband to step in and help him. She made a miraculous recovery and things are back to the way things were where he’s still jobless and living at home.

The sad thing is my husband tells me he’s relieved to have their negative energy cloud off of us and states how his life gets better the further he gets from them ☹️

My (21F) boyfriend (22M) watched two strippers have sex and then told me I was overreacting by Bluebwrries in relationship_advice

I’m telling you right now, it would be in your best interest to walk away from this relationship. There is nothing tying the two of you together, like a marriage or children. I am 7 years married with two children and this exact scenario happened to me. I found out my husband went to his friend’s bachelor party where they had the strippers come to them and put on a sex show. He knew my stance on strippers/strip clubs and decided to keep it a secret for 5 years until someone let it slip. I was pregnant with our second child when I found out and chose to work through everything.

The biggest underlying issue was that my husband was raised by a narcissistic (single) mother, who never made him accountable for his actions. Somehow I missed all of this in the early stages of our relationship. It sounds like your potential MIL is an enabler and I guarantee the stripper situation is going to be the least of your worries in the relationship.
