My mother always cautioned me, saying, “Living with your husband’s relatives might not be the best idea, so think it through.” But I didn’t listen. I thought I could handle it, believing my communication skills would see me through. I even managed to bond with my mother-in-law, Gabriella! But after she passed away, everything changed. It’s been a year
From the beginning of my relationship with my wife’s parents, I knew that things might be a bit challenging. They are quite protective of their daughter, Isabella, treating her as if she were still a child. Despite wanting to avoid any conflict, I kept my opinions to myself and tolerated their overbearing nature. However, the situation escalated unexpectedly soon after we moved into our new home.
Every visit to my in-laws turns into a weekend filled with chores, leaving me exhausted. Despite looking forward to relaxing weekends, I find myself caught up in endless tasks assigned by my in-laws. It’s a cycle of visits that I dread, yet can’t seem to escape.
