“The first time I met my future mother-in-law, she tried setting up my now ex-husband with another woman right in front of me. She made comments about how she always thought he would end up with someone who was a model — which I was not. Once we were married, she gave me acne medication as a Christmas gift. I didn’t have bad acne at all. She’d also come over and rearrange my dishes in the cupboards without me knowing until I opened the cabinet to get something. She had no concept of boundaries.”

The icing on the cake is the in-laws’ daughter was also divorced — but her husband is very wealthy (like millionaire-wealthy), so ‘it’s okay because he has money.'”
“Once my stepdad said my mom was the one he wanted to marry, they got on board, but they still treat my brother, mother, and me like second-class citizens and worship their son-in-law solely because he’s got money. Like, who does that???”
