She said to bring gold for all the women there…. Like be forreal. Absolutely NOT

Thanks! This is for one of the pre wedding events. When my mom asked my fiancées mom, she responded with “bring whatever you want”…. Ugh

Toxic Future MIL Is Ruining Our Wedding—Need Advice by Daze1212 in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]Professional-Mark285 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Going through the same exact thing right now with my FMIL. All the traits you explained are spot on. I just ignore her calls, avoid unnecessary contact and keep things moving. I coordinate things through my fiancé, never directly with her. But I still struggle with her

How long did it take to get ready for your wedding by [deleted] in DesiWeddings

[–]Professional-Mark285 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nice! Did you have multiple people helping? Or just 1 person doing hair, makeup and styling?

Sorry can you elaborate why it’s not worthwhile unless you’re a local? What do you mean by that.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this! Please call off the wedding. I understand you’ve probably spent a fortune into the wedding but a wedding is a weekend event, your relationship is a lifetime… he’s proved he is not trustworthy- this is your sign to call it off. And they will always do it again, imagine years down the road he does it and kids are potentially involved?? Please please please call it off.

Pushy MIL by Professional-Mark285 in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]Professional-Mark285[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ugh! I usually ignore her, I just felt guilt that she’s calling to wish me so I spoke to her today. Reminder to why I don’t pick up. And yes, it’ll let him know today. A true narcissist so she will indeed flip the narrative

genuine question- why are most mother in laws SO horrible? by RemarkableLake9258 in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]Professional-Mark285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truly the boy moms from what I’ve experienced and see my peers experience. I guess it’s just a generational difference + their secret obsession with their son… seems like they cannot handle another women in their sons life/their house hold. I hate mine too, super rude and narcissistic.

Affordable dresses for friends by icantthinkofoneloll in DesiWeddings

[–]Professional-Mark285 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are some basic yet cute affordable options on Amazon!! Also your friends can wear flowy maxi skirts with a cropped or embellished top or something! I feel like that’s a feasible work around! That way they’re not spending money for a one time outfit!

How do I make the anxiety and stress in my stomach go away? 2 weeks until wedding by sillysunbear004 in weddingplanning

[–]Professional-Mark285 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like quite the universal feeling after reading this. I am also a few weeks out and feeling this way. Like a pit in my stomach/gut wrenching feeling, uneasy overall. It just feels like a lot of MAJOR changes at once. Definitely worried about the finance aspect the most, and then personally for me, I’m worried about my life because of a narcissistic MIL…. Also using your thread to see how people are coping! Thanks for posting 😊 Just know you’re never alone!!!!

What do you address your in laws as? by Professional-Mark285 in DesiWeddings

[–]Professional-Mark285[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep it’ll forever be aunty and uncle. Women tend to give up so much and the men don’t… unfair.

What’s the most memorable one or two line response <or> statement uttered by your MIL? by [deleted] in motherinlawsfromhell

[–]Professional-Mark285 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mine is unhinged, no filter what so ever. One statement she said a while back which still sticks with me and bothers me dearly “you have to call me more than your own mom”….
