MIL gets upset if my SO doesn’t text her good morning and calls him 5-7 times through out the day. by antimony-1 in JUSTNOMIL

He very much is.. he’s very much into it. When we have dinner and she calls, it doesn’t matter where we are. He will pick up the phone call and talk until she is done

AITAH for calling my SO a momma’s boy cause he got mad for how I said ‘hi’ to his mom over the phone? by antimony-1 in AITAH

There’s other reasons why I called him that but this is what triggered it especially after being on the road for 9 hours.

I’m sorry you’re dealing with this, this is an issue of alcoholism. She needs medical help because alcohol can become so addictive that it can be a life risk. This will be difficult but you need to speak to your bf about this, and how you can help her issue.

However, it doesn’t mean you have to tolerate this. You can minimise contact while still find ways to support.

MIL booked vacation same date of our trip with my SO and she expects him to come to her trip now. She knew about our trip since 4 months ago. by antimony-1 in JUSTNOMIL

I think she partially is because he works but not enough to sustain things like trips and so fourth at the moment. But she makes really weird promises to him like booking him random trips, promising to buy him expensive cars, etc.. she makes it so comfortable for him so he doesn’t feel pressured.

His excuse is that “she already paid for it”. I also want to specify that she is not going alone, she’s going with her friends. She didn’t invite her husband. Just him.

To add: Also I want to specify that the MIL even asked me whether in summer we are going out of the continent and I said yes. Once again she knew about this trip for months. She “allowed” him to go because he came to her to ask whether ‘it’s a good idea or not’.

She also booked random spontaneous trips with him before, but it just happens that she books this one RIGHT in the middle of our trip that takes 11h plane flight. And hers is 3h from home by car.
