But a mere accident may reveal such nasty secrets about our dearest ones that it may ruin even the happiest relationships. Our today’s protagonist has been living with a belief that both her mom and her MIL wish her only the best, but she accidentally revealed that the two women united against her and thought they had a right to make life decisions instead of her. Now the woman recovered from her initial shock and here’s her full story.
Anna has always cherished her relationships with her mom and her MIL.
Anna, 33, has recently penned us a heartfelt and emotional letter and shared her story with us. The woman made a painful decision to cut all ties with her own mother and with her MIL, too, and now she’s asking our readers if they’d do the same in a situation similar to hers.
Anna opened her letter saying, “Hi,! I’m writing this letter to you and want to share my story with your readers, because I really need help in my complicated life situation. There aren’t many people left whom I can trust now, so I really want to tell my story to those who will not be subjective and who might have encountered a similar conflict in the past. I’d love to read the comments when my story gets published, and I hope that some good advice will be there.”
“So, I’m no contact with two of the most significant and cherished people in my life because my mom and my MIL united against me and started behaving in a very nasty way. I’ve always loved my mother, and we’ve had a wonderful and trustful relationship as long as I can remember myself. I’m a single child in the family, and my mother has been raising me alone since my dad passed away when I was 3.
My mom is a gorgeous person, she brilliantly combined the roles of both parents for me, and I was never deprived of anything while I was growing up. She has always been very protective of me. It hurt her so much when anyone ever offended or mistreated me, and she was always ready to punish people who were acting in a wrong way towards me.
My MIL has instantly become my second mom, after the very first time I saw her. She’s an extremely kind-hearted woman, and she has always been so supportive and loving to me that it made me think of myself like of a really lucky person.”
Anna noticed some red flags here and there, but she ignored them.
Anna goes on with her story, saying, “Both my mom and my MIL have been very helpful when I needed them in my life. My husband and I both work full-time. We have 2 kids and both my mom and MIL have been taking care of them on a regular basis while my husband and I were at work.
I did notice some things in their behavior that I didn’t quite understand. Like, for example, being too much involved into our family life, they both asked too many questions about our private relationship with my husband, offering help in things that didn’t require their intervention.”
“I caught my mom looking through my husband’s phone a couple of times, when I noticed it she said she was without her glasses and thought this was her phone.
But I noticed the same behavior from my mother-in-law. She was caught reading messages on my phone and my husband’s computer. I found this inappropriate, but I thought this was the elderly lady’s curiosity and I preferred to treat it with understanding.”
