I dream of the day MIL goes away forever.

RANT (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ Ambivalent About Advice

I hate her so much. Like I genuinely hate her so much it surprises me how difficult it is to not scream at her any time she makes gross comments.

She's disgusting too, my fiance blocked off one of the living rooms downstairs and deep cleaned it so the baby could have a big area to play and she complained that we're overprotective and that God made dirt and dirt dont hurt.

But she doesnt even bathe her dogs. 2 of them have dried shit caked on their fur and sure, dirt doesnt hurt but dog piss and shit might. Especially since she refuses to get them vaccinated.

Im still debating on biding my time and taking advantage of my fiance to stay at home, go to school and get a good career so I can leave.

He realizes his mom is bad and doesnt care about his opinions or feelings. They had a chat about things they felt were unfair in the house and where people had to step up but she complained, said they had a good talk and leave it there and my fiance didnt even get a word in.

Sometimes I see a glimpse of the man I want him to be, he stands up to her, tells her she's out of line and I love that. But more often than not he just let's her do whatever to "keep the peace "

Every time shes mad my fiance will find any excuse for me to leave the house and leave the baby with him so he can play with her but I know he just lets his mom play with her most of the time so she'll stop being mad.

Her reasons for being mad are ridiculously stupid too.

I mostly use disposable plates and utensils because I left a plate in the sink once, just one plate, then her other son brought in the stash of dishes he had and she screamed at me for making her wash so many dishes and did nothing but bitch to my fiance so he decided to start getting paper plates because her tantrums weren't worth it.

I avoid her at all costs, if she asks me something I'll reply but im not standing around and spending hours talking. She asked me what I used for my chicken and dumplings the other week and I simply replied that I just use store bought biscuit dough and pinch off little bits.

Shes gotten a second job to help her move out too but I think shes lying because she works 3 days a week and is gone for 6 hours max. When she just had one job she was gone 4 days for 10 hours at a time. But my fiance doesnt see that lie so I know if she cries that she's working so hard and still needs money, he'll give it to her.

I live in constant stress and anxiety because she can manipulate my fiance to just give her whatever she wants.

Im so tired. I dont know what to do
