A female United Kingdom age 51-59, anonymous writes:

Can anyone give advise?

My mother-in-law has been nasty, spiteful and spread rumors about me since before my husband and I were even married. The last argument has spiraled out of control and I am now painted as the family-splitter. This is because I am the only person I know who has ever stood up to her. My husband is very supportive and is willing to not speak to his mum and dad because of her treatment of me.

Father-in-law I adored and he is recovering from cancer, but now he has taken her side (apparently).I know my husband feels bad about his illness but I am so upset and feel hat I have destroyed the family, just for sticking up for ourselves. Sister-in-law is expecting her 1st baby and hasnt said much. She printed off an email I sent her explaining the latest arguement and gave it to ma and pa - which started all this off. I have always been brought up to be polite and am quiet and dont say much which is why she thought she could bully me.

Please advise, I dont know what to do.

Lisa.

I wouldn't worry.

With a family like that... it was only a matter of time before someone came along that wouldn;t be intimidated.

SoftlyCaress agony auntWow Sounds Like My Ex Husbands Mom God Rest Her Soul. But she was evil and always wanted to bully me and because I stood up to her she hated me. I want to tell you stand your ground, don't let someone run over you, mom or no mom. I think it is a problem with letting go of their child, I know it was for mine but you stand your ground and it's a good thing hubby is beside you because mine wasn't... Never! I guess that is one reason we had problemsl. Anyways, good for you, don't let them break you down...

Arianz agony auntDear LISA,

1st U have to know whats her EXPECTATION?

Why she does like this?

If she is like dominating then u have to take different step...

but if she like it to make u PAIN n DISTURB then u have to avoid her...

If she is dominating then when ever u wanna do anything in family then u go by ur hubby...I mean if u wanna tell any one anything or advice or opnion all u have to speak by ur hubby not u directly. ur hubby is their SON...so it will quite hard for her to reject his wish. Make ur hubby as ur protector...

There are some MUMS who think after MARRIED their son become weak and dominate by other girl but WHICH IS NOT TRUE....

OR if she likes to do it to make ur life PAIN

then better u avoid her comments and what other people

I mean DON'T CARE ANYTHING....

But make ur hubby always HAPPY and give him access to be with his parents....

Take care

keep in touch
