probably since the day I met her (many moons ago as a teenager) I've had issue with my mil.
It is not that she's a mean person or even that she's a horrible mil BUT...
she's judgemental she expects perfection
I don't know..she's just a lot of things that make me (and well most other people that meet her after the first time) cringe...comments made that sure could be interperted as innocent but could also be taken as a big slap in the face especially when they occur with such seeming regularity.
Don't get me wrong my inlaws really are nice people and they'd do most anything for me but sometimes mil makes my skin crawl and I'm left feeling like "oh this is just wonderful" very sarcasticly of course. It can't be just me that feels this sense of "no matter what you do it will just never be good enough and she'll always find some flaw, praise will not come your way but you will however hear others praised often" perhaps that is why sil is a recovering balemic who instead of eating regularly to get to a normal weight still struggles to stay skinny and got implants to make up the difference.
I guess it's just part of being married...to bad not all inlaws are like my h's inlaws
