Feeling sad....mil drama

Becky, on September 16, 2022 at 5:15 PM Posted in Family and Relationships 0 5
I don't have any parents, aunts. Or uncles.ive tried to include my MIL in planning, received only luke warm response...if any. We planned park wedding with picnic to keep costs down and to mimic our laid back style, harley wedding. MIL asked what she should wear so I sent links to summer tops, she wore black ribbed tank. She told me she'd help prep, but didn't get into town until 2.5 hrs before wedding.they sat at the house while I decorated, hauled food and tried to get ready for our wedding. During reception she disappeared, sat in truck for hours. We have no pictures with her. She didn't offer to help with costs, she didn't even give us a card. They were told they could stay at our house but opted for a hotel. They didn't come over the next day, didn't call, left hotel by 8am. We called them, text them only to wait until 7pm when they told us they were home.My husband is so hurt. I'm not sure how to move forward with her. I sent a te t telling her thanks for coming.i sent photos thru text of my husband and his sister. Of her granddaughter, she hasn't acknowledged even looking at them. She's the only OM we have I get that but I so wanna tell her how hurtful she is. How do I move forward

    I'm really sorry you're feeling that way and I can understand why. I think the trick here is to lower your expectations of what you think she could be and just accept what she is. Disappointing for sure, but weddings don't change people.

    It is sad when family (in-laws either) cannot get in the mood to celebrate. There are some posts here which show families that have had bad experiences and dislike things surrounding marriage. If your MIL has such pains, hopefully there is a way she can be delivered from those. It may help to emphasize with what she may be suffering -- if that is what is happening.

    Ugh, She sounds awful. I wouldn’t reach out again and sent her nice stuff like pictures since she doesn’t reciprocate or acknowledge. Miserable people are just that. Don’t let them bring you down.
