MIL deleted my Mother on social media

r/

I had temporarily deactivated my account two weeks ago after it began to impact my mental health.

There were so many nasty posts she shared assassinating my character, painting herself as a victim and obviously attempting to bully me. On top of that I was facing a lot of stress that week from potential job loss due to the current political climate in the US, and getting ready to move across the country with DH. She’s been giving us both the silent treatment for a couple months now.

I reactivated my page momentarily today to see if she’s continuing to slander me online. That’s when I found out she removed my Mother from her friends list. I started laughing to myself because my Mother has been nothing but kind and sweet to her and her family.

I think she must’ve assumed I blocked her and removed my Mom during a tantrum. It kind of validates for me that she was also watching my page and noticed my absence. I never post and haven’t been in contact with her in a while. Same goes for my Mother. I’m counting this as a win because it feels self-destructive on her end.

It’s just social media childish and seems short sited and done out of anger, but I don’t really give a shit and found it funny!
