I need to preface, I’m not actually married to my partner . My gf is 12 years my senior and we’ve been together for 2.5 years now, we’ve just moved in together ( a few months ago ), and my mil is visiting right now.
First off, wanted to say that I mention the age because it definitely plays into our power dynamics . For instance , she told me my mil was coming over for 5 days, didn’t really ask me , and the whole thing was booked while I was on a work trip.
Secondly , my mil is a fucking trip . Shes always the victim in every situation and my gf is always making excuses for her / she’s got no education, she wasn’t raised by her parents , she’s got nothing . The works
There is literally too much to unpack here , but I every major argument we’ve ever had has been over her mil.
She’s visiting right now and I exploaded . Instead of having my back , my partner has turned on me and I’m now isolated in my own home . We’re breaking up and waiting until she leaves to figure it out .
I fucking hate her mom so much
