hubby and i have been married for 7 years and until now, i can never get along with his mom. though we never vocalize our conflict, actions do speak louder than words. and because of this, our relationship as husband and wife has been so strained. has any of you experienced this? how do you deal with it?

May be Odipus Complex. If so sympathize with her. If you have a son, you will also become a mother in law one day.

Pl. examine if she can be taken to a psychologist for counselling. Pl. also liberalise yourselves.

I hate the b***h. She is a nasty dirty skan* and I hope I never see her again. I have already forbid her from coming to my house and she is not allowed to call here to talk to my wife. I wish I could give you some helpful advice but all I can offer is stay the hell away from them.

at first we got along really well but now it is somewhat strained between us. luckily for me it hasnt caused problems between me and my husband because he agrees with me. his mother has proved to be a rather selfish person and seems to favor some kids over the others. and she isn't much of a grandma to our kids. my mom and dad take the kids once a month so my husband and i can go on a date. they have had our kids atleast once a month for the last 4 years. his mom and dad have had them only a handful of times and thats only if i asked her to babysit for something. and when i ask her she makes it seem as if its an inconvience to her. which is part of what has strained our relationship. if its causing problems between you and your husband you should get help before it ruins your marriage

I am so blessed because I never had any problems with my mother-in-law. She has always made me feel welcome and she has always been supportive and helpful.
