M, I love crispy bacon! I actually draw a blank when I try to picture you. I do picture you as being dark haired but that's all I got.
And yes, MIL's treatment of FIL is terrible. Up until a few years ago they fought all of the time, still fight a LOT. It gets very uncomfortable to be around them because of the fighting, always telling each other to "f off" and "shut the F up". She will tell him "buy me x" and then he comes home with X and she will say to her friends or other family members "Look at what he bought, why the F would he buy X? I don't know what he is thinking." Picture this type of example time and time again. It is crazy making.
Anytime over the years if I said anything to H about MIL, he would say "Be glad you aren't my dad, he has it the worst." H used to also tell me that FIL has considered leaving MIL a few times over the years because of this treatment. And that many of their "couples" friends have told him over the years that they have a hard time with MIL, but want to stay friends because of FIL. Ironic how that has been forgotten. I don't even care. I don't want H to hate his parents, I don't want FIL to hate MIL, I don't even "hate" any of them, I just want off this roller coaster. I just want them out of my marriage.
