Update on violent MIL across the street

r/

Not a total success but y’all called it!

I posted a while ago about my violent MIL getting a job across the street from my apartment. Well on my lunch breaks when I walk my dog I’ve been looking for her car to see if it’s safe to walk by. I haven’t seen it.

My husband then gets a call from her job saying she hasn’t shown up for two weeks and isn’t communicating with them. Same thing that happened at her last job. Y’all were right, didn’t have to deal with my abuser being right outside my front door for very long.

We are in couples therapy now coming up with a plan to deal with his mom. She clocked the behavioral patterns and attention seeking behavior right away.

Things are going so good haha
I’m no longer afraid of leaving my home, husband is doing awesome with therapy and our plans of how to deal with MIL moving forward.

Just wanted to share 🙂
