very simple: I have a live-in middle eastern muslim MIL and I married number 4 of 5 boys she had…just got her greencard and plans to intrude upon our life for 6mos out of every yr. she’s handicapped being that she’s too obese to walk like a human and speaks with a pseudo beggar’s tone all day long, talks to herself and demands to be heard when she is talking to herself all day, complains about everything in life and enforces her own religious ethos on us. all this and i have to be the good little house wife who smiles and nods. so don’t tell me how screwed you are. i wish i could send her with a one way ticket to baghdad.

My sister-in-law is insane. She never got married and is trying to live her dream through my life. On my weeding day, she snuck into our private room at the reception and opened all our gifts. She contradicts me in front of my daughter all the time. On halloween she caled my husband screaming because she wanted to be the one to take my kid trick or treating.

She bought a house two years ago and doesnt even live in it. She sleeps during the week with her parents and then forces them to sleep at her house on weekends because she doesnt want to be alone. She has personally blamed me for taking her brother away from her. I wish she would talk to her and put her in her place, but he doesnt want to hurt her feelings and says I should just pity her. But all I want to do is strangle her.

i have been with my partner for over 2 years now and from the very start his sister has tried to break us up in anyway possible. we moved to a different state to get away from her constant bitchy attitude and her many failed attempts to break us up - and now from time to time she sends abusive emails and txt messages, she makes up lies that her mum or grandma are in hospital and they want to speak to my partner - but he wants nothing to do with them anymore - he’s told them that but his stupid sister carol doesn’t get it - she still keeps accusing me of taking him away from her and the rest of the family - I wish she’d leave us alone - she’s so evil and heartless, she acts like a jealous ex and it makes me sick. I hope she disappears because we’ve had enough of her BS. I haven’t seen a nice side to any of my partners family - their racist and cruel - his sister is the biggest liar, she tries to compete with me in his life - he has told her to leave us alone and never to call again but she still does. She’s a psycho and in need of mental therapy!!!!!!!!!!!!

My sis-in-law thinks that she is my husbands mother. His real mother has been dead for several years. Also his father is dead also. I can’t stand her nasty,stinking butt. She just irritates me to the fullest. sometimes I want to just sock her in the mouth, but i say to myself why? is she worth it? I try to tell my husband that he needs to tell his family to mind there business. I also tell him that if your family means you no good then why do you pput up with them? All they are doing is bringing you down. she is jealous of what we have. We have a house, 3 cars,money and a good relationship. Andour children are well behaved. I just want to choke her, she calls my house and spmetimes she won’t speak, so i just hang up until she can speak. She is always causing problems. I just want her out of my life and my husbands life.

HMM,WHERE TO START! MY MIL NEVER LIKED ME , SHE AKES THAT SHE DOES IN FRONT OF MY HUSBAND,BUT IN FRONT OF THE KIDS SHE BERATES ME AND COMMENTS ON EVERYTHING I SAY I SERIUOSLY BELEIVE SHE WANTS ME OUT OF THE PICTURE SO THAT SHE CAN PLAY MOMMY TO MY KIDS AND FOR MY HUSBAND. SHE IS A SICK LADY!! SHE NEES TO GET A LIFE, SHE IS A LEACH WHO WILL NOT BUTT THE HELL OUT OF HER KIDS LIVES. MY HUSBAND FEEDS INTO IT CAUSE HE ALWAYS FEELS BAD FOR EVERYONE AND DOESNT SEE THAT I CANT STAND HER AND THAT SHE NEEDS TO GET OUT OF MY DAMN HOUSE!! I LOVE MY HUSBAND BUT CANNT LIVE LIKE THIS ANYMORE, I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT LEAVING BECUASE I HATE HER, SHE DOESN NOTHING BUT SIT ON THE CHAIR AND WATCH TV, USE UP THE ELECTRICITY WITH HER AC AND MAKE MESSES AND USE UP ALL THE FOOD ,THEN TAKES IT TO WORK FOR LUNCH!!! SO BASICLLY I AM FEEDING HER EMPLOYEES.SHE IS FREAKING SICK IN THE HEAD!!!! SHE TALKS ABOUT ME BEHIND MY BACK TO MY SISTER INLAW BUT I CANT SAY ANYTHING ABOUT IT CAUSE I DONT WANT TO RATT HER OUT FOR TELLING ME PLUS MY HUSBAND THINKS THAT SHE IS A FREAKING SAINT. YEAH A SAINT THAT SMOKES A MILLION CIGGARETES AND DRINKS ALL DAY!!!!!!!!!!!! I NEED HER OUT OF MY HOUSE, OUT OF MY LIFE. I WANNA MOVE FAR FAR AWAY SHE NEEDS A MAN OR SOMETHING, SOME KIND OF LIFE!!!!!!!!!

That’s some messed up stuff that everyone has to go through. I am 21 years old and have lived with my BOYFRIEND not husband for 3 years. About 4 months ago his mother moved in with us. At first it wasnt bad. Now it is MISERABLE. She is the most hypocritical person that I have ever met. Her whole life she has been a neglectful mother, a drug addict and an alcoholic. Then MIRACULOUSLY a year ago god talks to her. Now all she does is go to church. She says she is a devout christian and will never drink or do drugs again. She says she speaks in tongues when she talks to god. I believe she does this to get attention. She traded one addiction for another. When she was a junkie we would get calls at midnight from my boyfriends brother (she has lived with all three of her boys and we are the only ones who will let her live with us now)saying to come over quick because they think she died from drug overdoses. But when she would finally come to she would be crying saying she did it on purpose because her son and his wife went to dinner and didnt invite her. Crap like that. I dont think she believes to believe, I think she does it for attention.
She is also very disgusting. And I mean pig dissgusting. I bake cupcakes and cakes for friends and coworkers. Well, whenever I buy icing she eats it. Right out of the can. With her finger. I went to the store and got Wilton icing (some of the best I have ever tried) and when I went to frost the cake there was 1/3 of the can left with her stubby finger marks in it. I had some icing left in piping bags to use later (properly sealed of coarse) and she had sucked all the icing out of all of them. I even hid my icing in an empty taco bell kit box and she got into it and ate all of that too. WHO THINKS TO LOOK IN A TACO BELL BOX TO FIND ICING?!?!? Then one day I was so fed up with her eating the leftovers that I buried them in the garbage can. When I came home from work I was curious and I looked through the garbage and she had eaten the icing. FROM THE F****** GARBAGE!
She never helps around the house. She puts her dirty dishes in the sink and leaves them there until I breakdown and put them in the diswasher. Whenever I do laundry she will wait for me to start it and when I go into my room she sneaks in there and puts her clothes in so I will unknowingly do her laundry with mine. She leaves her dirty clothes on the bathroom floor. I went in her room one day to throw her dirty clothes on her bed and you could not see her floor it was so gross in there. Im talking about garbage. There were so many mcdonalds and burger king bags in there you couldnt see the floor. GROSS. She is just disgusting all around. Me and my boyfriend havebeen fighting constantly because if I say something or get upset he blows up. I am so in love with him but sometimes I just want to leave him.
She’s only 45 but she looks like shes 60. She has like 4 teeth (because of drug use) She will not eat in front of us. She waits until we go to sleep and then she sneaks in the kitchen and eats all of our food. She picks through our scraps of food leftover from dinner. Our grocery bill has doubled since she has moved in. Our electric bill has doubled. We buy cartons of cigarettes (they are cheaper) and my carton will last me 2-3 weeks and a carton will last a week for my boyfriend. If there are cigarettes in the house she will smoke them and wont pay for her own so I stopped buying cartons of smokes. I wish she would move out but she doesnt have a job because she says shesnot getting one bc she has no teeth and its embarrassing. She has no car either so I have to take her everywhere. If I want to go to the store by myself I have to sneak out. And I mean I cant make a single noise or she will shoot out of her room and say shes going too. She constantly trash talks her other kids and their wives but is a suck up when they are there. Her youngest son recently startedmaking alot of money so she says all kinds of good things about him when he buys her stuff or takes her to dinner but as soon as the effect wears off its back to trash talking. Ive hadenough. Someone should create a place where you could put your mooching inlaws or parents. Oh wait they have. RETIREMENT HOME!!

alright, i thought i had it bad until i read all these stories. I am getting frustrated with my MIL. she comes over everyday because she is bored. she cleans our house non-stop and pays for our dinner. i know i know that doesnt sound all bad.. leave us alone! my wife loves that she comes over. but she brings her dogs with her…i just want some time alone at home.. i consider her company and she doesnt understand that..

hi…well thank god we have some place to put down our frustration into words which we just cant do other wise. well my mother in law and my husbands brother stay wid us since very long. they just wont leave us alone. they never bring groceries in the house and use up everything that i bring and never refill it. they are such assholes…i had it from them. just not in peace. and my mother in law never allows me to watch television. she never helps in the house. she just sits and sits and sleeps and watches tv. its like i suffered a miscarriage in 2006 and its all due to my inlaws. they were just not supportive. and now too they are not leaving us alone. i wish i was dead. my mother in law is the most selfish bitch. wish she was dead tomorrow morning and leaves me and my husband alone. she is after the house my husband bought and she wants all his money that he earns. how can she even do that….god please take her away forever………and my brother in law is just staying free of cost since so many years…he never repairs things and dirties everything…never helps us…just tortures us. what shud i do? i want them to go away and i want to stay alone wid my husband forever…without my inlaws interfereing in our lives.

I’ve been using the cold shoulder/avoidance techniques. My MIL is a disgusting pig! She doesn’t pay for anything (our electric bill has doubled since living with her, she doesn’t feel she should have to pay any portion of the bill, she is a sneak eater, in the middle of the night she goes through the fridge and eats everything!, but doesn’t buy groceries)she doesn’t cook (I don’t want her to, more on that later.) or clean, she doesn’t even wash herself, she picks her nose at the table, then blows her nose and sets her “snot rags” right on the table by everyone’s food/plates/silverware, then leaves them behind when she leaves the table. She recently bought a chihuahua, which she lets crap/pee all over the bedroom floor, the house is beginning to smell like a humane society and it’s all because her room is an absolute pigsty! She NEVER washes her hands, you can actually smell crap when she raises her hands anywhere near ya, she keeps her fingernails really long and you can actually see the funk under her nails almost to the tips, then she sticks her hands in cereal boxes, bags of chips, etc. She coughs and hacks all the time but doesn’t cover her mouth (which is really stomach turning when she opens the fridge for stuff n just coughs all over the food in the fridge) I’ve had to start buying 3-4 days worth of food and hide it in a small refr. on the porch so that the 6 of us who aren’t disgusting hogs can eat.
She is constantly bitching at my kids. She is always trying to put one over on us where money is concerned (not paying for her meds, her drive thru orders, her cigarettes, etc.) The cold shoulder/avoidance techniques are not working because I can still see, hear, and smell her, I’ve tried talking to my husband about it, and I’ve tried tactfully talking to her about the issues, I’m about to the point of just going off on her which will end my marriage, but I’m about to the I just don’t care anymore point, so any suggestions? I’d really appreciate any ideas. Thanks in advance.

My sis-in-law used to live in Miami and said wanting to live in NYC so she found a job there a month ago. Before she drove back up, she just told my wife she needed my help to move her stuffs to her NYC apt. Suddenly, the next day her truck showed up in front of my house. She said she would stay only for couple days but has been living here for weeks then. She has asked my wife if she could stay and live with us for free. My wife said no since we have a upcoming baby and we have been saving hard. Now she said she does not want the job in NYC and she quited her last job. She does not tell us her plan nor when she is going to leave.

She said she needs to save money (by quitting her job and not working???) to pay back her debt that was spent for her few oversea vacations, $800 shoes, $500 Dynson, etc. As I recall just few months ago, she bought her Dynson for her tile floor apt in Mimai.

Since she moved in every time my wife and I talk, she would change the topics to talk about her. When my wife and I talk about pregnancy, she would talk about her accidential pregnancy with her ex-bf. How self center this free loader is! By the way, she left her ex-bf becaus she thinks her ex-bf does not have enough money to support her shopping and to have a maid. She crys for her best friend able to buy a place but she has not. When we visted her down in Miami, we always took her out and even paid for her gocery. When she came visit, she never took us out for dinner. On the other hand, she has all the money to go out with her friend. Oh, she always says me and my wife life is boring, but now she force into our life.

Now everyday she eats our food, goes to gym, and shopping. She does not do any house works and leaves all the dirty dishes in the sink. I told her not to move more stuff into my house hoping one day she will leave. But everyday she sneaks more her stuff into my house. I have to clean everything (including her mess) because my wife is pregnant. Everyday her lazy a** sleeps until who knows… Oh by the way, my brainless mom-in-law was down in Miami when she moved. She might contribute this freeloader idea to my sis-in-law since my selfish sis-in-law never mentioned it when we visited her.

Ok you guys think you have it bad, my MIL is the biggest bitch in the world. She puts me down when no one is around and I mean all the time, insults me directly or indirectly, she ruins or steals my clothes. She loves my son cause he reminds her of my husband but doesn’t care for my daughter all that much cause she looks so much like me. She cries and whines to my husband about little things but she’ll throw comments to me (this is the only one she ever told in front of someone else and this one was the worse) after a big meal…two days before I gave birth to my daughter just because I didn’t get up right away to put the dishes away she says “you’re pregnant…NOT dead” holy f*ck, if only I owned a shot gun!!! Anyway after 7 long years of taking her dirt I let her have it after she risks making me loose my kids’ babysitter, I told her my babysitter didn’t want her there and she kept going over just to annoy me and make me loose her anyway she threatned me in front of my son and just blew right up at me so I told her that she wasn’t welcome at our house anymore and the worse thing is that my husband doesn’t think she “meant” what she said and thinks that I over react and that things will just get better on their own…the woman lives in another province and when she comes up to visit it’s anywhere between 1-3 months…I can’t take it anymore I’m just about to crack!

My in-law is my sister-in-law. I was trying to be nice but not anymore you can only get kicked down so much. Even on our wedding date we almost had to get married without my mother-in-law there as her daughter-in-law was not done her coffee and didn’t feel like getting her to the church on time, she was 1/2 hour late. From there it only got worse, she has accused me of trying to push her down the stairs while she was holding a three month old, call childrens aid on her. She has even called my ex-husband and told him that I should not have custody of my children, he called me and said what kind of family did I marry into.

Now I try not to go anywhere that she will be, because she always causes a scene, most of the time with her husband if he even says hi to me. It makes it hard for family functions, my husband tells me to ignore her as no one from the family likes her they just put up with her for his brothers sake. She buys gifts for only 1 of our three children and she doesn’t see what is wrong with that, as I return the gift to her un-opened. I don’t like my children to go over there and they are only allowed if my husband is there. And our children are now 20 17 and 13 and they just call their cousins to meet them somewhere else.

My inlaws from a different religion and thats the biggest problem, not only this but almost all of them r less educated, speaks very loudly without mannerism, dont have any atteqates, very low calibre, do a lot of biching and I simply hate them

My mother in law is a real pain in the a**! First of all, she will not stay out of her daughter’s marital business. She calls our home every morning wanting to chat with her daughter. My mother in law does not have a life! She is not working and is a religious fanatic. She is a pentecostal/apostolic christian whom goes to church for attention and self gratification. She is extremely bossy, aggresive, and possessive. She is a control freak! She does not like me and calls my home to annoy me. She has a smart mouth and is extremely hiper active. She is a busy body! Unfortunately, my wife has many of her mom’s personal characteristics. My mother in law is a hypocrit. She goes to church for self gratification and leaves church a REAL B! She leaves church and is extremely egocentric and selfish. She has a big mouth and needs to get a life. I’m not sure how my father in law has tolerated being married to her all these years. Maybe that is why he cheated on her and had several extra marital affairs and got another woman pregnat. I wish my mother in law would move to another planet and leave us the hell alone!

I feel like i am in a hell when i am will my in-laws, to add up my FIL has his mother also with us. She dominates the whole family. That old lady & My FIL rules the family they will not allow us to go out, talk freely my FIL will always come into our bed room and create awful situation, Now I am 4 months Pregnant and left that hell and i am at my mothers home, My hubby loves me a lot but will not leave his parents, even both our salary my FIL will snatch!! I have no idea to go back there….

I am in the same boat as you all! My mother in law and my husbands aunt and uncle is our BIGGEST problem. Instead of saying things to our faces, they go behind our backs and talk crap and start trouble. My husband cannot stand to be around any of them and he’s not. It’s like these crazy people wont leave us alone! My husband has went as far as quiting a REALLY great job just to get away from the drama. We have moved, changed our numbers and practically hid from them so we can have a sense of peace and live happily. It has even went as far as his aunt going into my medical records at the hospital where she works at just to see what is up and get info! Sometimes I feel like packing up and leaving…but I cant run from this problem anymore..so I have decided to keep our children away from them, our son hasnt seen his grandmother in over a year and thats the way I am keeping it…and I think if I never seen them all again it will be too soon!

So for all you suffering with this..you are not alone…keep your head up and be strong, dont let them back you into a corner. Its your marriage and your life…LIVE IT THE WAY YOU DESIRE to hell with all the rest of them!

My MIL can beat all yours ,she has destroyed my life.sadly, my wife doesnt understand this and take my side.My bloody MOL is refusing to leave us ,sees nothing wrong in it as she beleives its her daughters house as well.She is a Pain in the A…she abuses me ,hits me at times,uses derogatory language.Now she is planning to get her husband and jobless dirty son as well as its a chance to get everyone into a developed country.
Not to forget ,she joined us to help us with our 6 month old daughter.
Forget help ,she claims I should keep servants, doensnt cook or clean ,doesnt let her daughter cook or clean-so I end up cookin+cleaning+obviouly working as well.She abuses me if her daughter had to put the dishes in the DW or clothes in the washer/drier. I look after my daughter most of the time as well as the bloody women doesnt like my daughter either.

Am taking this bullshit to keep peace at home for my daughters sake.My 8 year marriage is on the verge of breaking down.

I am sure the readers will wonder why the hell is this bloke still in a marriage with a unsupportive wife and a filthy MIL.I DONT KNOW EITHER.
IS THERE A LEGAL WAY OF GETTING RID OF THESE INTERFERING BITCH(my loving MOL)

Um, I’m trying to get rid of my excessively annoying grandparents, not my in- laws, but I chose in- laws, cuz its the closest thing!!!! But, unfortunately for me, NONE OF THESE THINGS WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! No offence, but I’ve already tried talking to my mum about how I feel, and she doesn’t understand. I mean, I expected her to be hurt, but she totally freaked out!! And please, my grandparents aren’t what you’d expect. They talk about **** and IT at the dinner table!!!!!!! I am related to whackos, I know. And its a lot worse than that, you mark my words. Any ideas? PLEASE, I am dying here!!!

Hi! I’m 18 and I”m really looking forward to getting married. Thing is, I am really afraid of my future in-laws, especially my MOTHER IN LAW. I don’t really know her personality, because when I come over to their house to visit, she just says hello and then leaves my boyfriend and me alone. BUT, my boyfriend is the youngest son she has, and the reason why I’m afraid is because of the sayings/rumours that says that the mother is very protective of the youngest, especially if it is a son. I am not perfect, nobody is, but I am really afraid that she might criticise everything I do, like a lot of women say. Please help me: how can I solve this possible problem even before it begins?

I HATE MY INLAWS….. NEED WAYS TO TORTURE THEM
