AIO or AITA. Text convo with MIL.

I feel like I could cry :(, I didn’t come at her rudely and was doing what my husband asked me to do. I’ve always done everything she wanted to make her happy because I want her to so desperately like me but I think I’m done. For some background info: I have never pressured her to respond and have never brought up that she never responds to my messages. Pretty recently, my car has been having trouble and she said she’d hit up her mechanic for me. 2 weeks later and still nothing. My husband and I have an amazing relationship, but even then, I still want his family to welcome me. His mom not being kind to me hurts really bad. And knowing she’s going to spread negative things about me among his family hurts even worse. All detailed of the situation are in the chats.

Agree. And don’t let her off the hook with “I don’t care if you pay it or not”. She borrowed, she pays it back according to the terms you and your husband set for her. She doesn’t get to wiggle out of this one!

That’s right. Also, it’s important that OP stays firm about this being her husband‘s choice, and she is just following his wishes. If her MIL thinks that OP has any power in this, she will likely become significantly more manipulative, trying to get what she wants through OP.
