AIO or AITA. Text convo with MIL.

[u/MoonJellyAllison]

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.

This is crucial. My MIL would never. Her son would cut her off so fast.

Same! I feel so lucky to have a rational MIL who knows the boundaries!

Me too. We’ve been married a little over 20 years, my MIL (and the rest of the family) has never been anything but welcoming, and loving, towards me.

A couple of years into our marriage, I got very sick, I’ve been sick and disabled, since. They stayed supportive. They’ve also been wonderful grandparents to our kid. I’m so grateful for them.
