So because of the drama going o in the in-laws family, Brian and his mother have fallen out.....big time. They haven't talked in over 4 weeks. The last call he m ade to her went like this....
B - Mum, I'm sorry I yelled at you, I don't want to argue with you, I love you
her response......she hung up without saying a word, called Brian's brother and told him to tell his brother that she never wants to see his numbers on her phone again.
They both upset each other, but that response was beyond shitty. She sent him 1 fun email, he replyed to her saying she was not to contact him. She has not tried to repair the relationship, she has not tried calling him and has never apologised.
She also has not called me, but emails me fun things sometimes. I ignore her.
Yesterday she emails me inviting me to a girls night at her house, telling me to take my pj's and stay over.
What the fuck is wrong with this woman. She treats my husband like shit, but thinks I am still going to hang out with he. This is the one email I can't ignore. Today I have to think of how I am going to answer this.
I will not have a relationship with her while she is treating Brian this way.
I can't believe she thinks that I will not support him over this.
I do not understand how a mother can treat her child this way, so what that hes a grown man now, hes still her child.
I have to calm down before I answer her, my angry reply would be ugly and I don't want to start a war of words with her.

Why is it so hard for people to apologize/forgive? Every argument has two sides. If he tried to apologize to her, the least she could do was accept it. Sure, there may be tense feelings for a while, but like you said, he is her SON!!! Good luck with this whole mess. Giant hugs to you.

ReplyDeleteI wonder why people these days will or cannot say "I'm sorry.". Why is that, narcissism?
I'm sorry for Brian; it sounds like his mom is a piece of work.
I would reply to her that you are sticking with your husband and if she will not talk to him, she is not to talk to you either. When you are married, you become ONE. Your spouse becomes the most important person in your life. Present yourselves as a united front. And good luck, I really hope this ends happily and she will apologize for her childish and outlandish behavior.
PS: I don't like how my mum in law treats my husband sometimes either, and I am *this close* to telling her what I think.
I hope to think I'm a good mom and mom-in-law. But there are times I'd like to disown them! LOL
ReplyDeleteSorry you guys are going through all this...
P.S. I just realised your blog wasn't updating on my blogroll so I missed some entries... it's fixed now!
I hope things get sorted out between them and weird she asked you to a sleepover pretty much after doing what she did.Good luck with the email.
ReplyDeleteWhat does the drama going on in Brian's family done to sever the ties between Brian and his mother? Is it that Brian is taking sides that his mother does not agree with? You are the third person I have heard about having fights with family today! I just wish people would try harder to get along and enjoy each other while they have each other around.
ReplyDeleteThis is a difficult situation to be in. I hope that you find the words and the wisdom to respond to her that will hopefully have her looking in the mirror and seeing herself for the first time. I hope that's followed with an apology.
