There have been a lot of family strains recently with my family and my boyfriend’s family.
My boyfriend’s mother calls him many times a day, which I try to be okay with. She is very manipulative and cruel often times to my boyfriend.
I am supporting everything financially and have paid for many things.. (I.E… truck, trailer, the home we live in.. etc.)
We recently went on a trip to Foxwoods, and she was very disrespectful.
My boyfriend had a few drinks and we started arguing..(I am not a drinker, and tried to shut it down…) I got upset and angry and did yell… as I was so frustrated and never have anybody in my court when these things happen.
She proceeded to interject saying;
I am an embarrassment
He can get anyone he wants
I am jealous
I am miserable
I hate his kids
Swearing vehemently at me as I sat there taking this lashing for about a minute then quietly proceeded to say I was exited the room and left.
I have NEVER swore or been disrespectful to this woman as TOXIC as she is, but someone… this is the result of being a kind person who has taken care of her son for YEARS.
I am extremely hurt and disrespected.
There’s not much I can do, I know this…but any kind words or encouragement would be appreciated.
What would you do?

it seems you understand how future get togethers will be. the woman sounds like a bitch, but you should not feel bad, as it is her problem. you could think about whether you want to get more involved with the guy.
What I hear from you telling your story is that you are working hard to support financially and emotionally and get disrespected by everyone in return. Is that something that you really want to keep doing? These sorts of things usually get worse, not better
Why are you with someone who cannot support himself and drinks?
