My policy with not only my MIL but other annoying people is mostly ignore or show my displeasure once in a while. However, with MIL, I just cannot stand her anymore. I need to find small ways to deal with her:
1. She is on advice overdrive. Could do this - could do that, think about this, think about that, buy this, don't buy that.
2. She is constantly sending e-mails on "what my husband used to do when a child" - I am really tired of listening / getting e-mails about my husband's childhood.
3. Has mean snide comments abt my parents/brother
4. MIL lives in a different country, but visit us for few months every year - and they try to take over the house.
What have people done in similar situations? Its impossible to have a "talk" with her because she has a comeback for everything. Plus, she is Mean & Manipulative - her biggest weakness is that she Lies though her teeth. Did I mention she is a hyper lady? and that I am a laidback person.
All thoughts are appreciated.
Thanks
