Overbearing Mother in Law ... breaking us up?

Tell her she has 7 days to get out, and that if she touches anything else that belongs to you you will kick her out that day.

Seriously what the hell? No one in their right mind goes to someones home and does what she did. Don't ever let her stay again.

Tell her that she's an adult that isn't your problem and make her move out. She's not acting like a guest and it is not her house. This stuff has to be bothering your girl friend to. I can't imagine having a relative move in and take over my home like that.

I once had issues with my mother-in-law like that, but it wasn't quite as extreme. None the less, I talked to my husband and he talked to her. I'm sure she didn't like it, but the problem subsided. Mostly because she was only a short term guest.

That's probably the real source of the problem. You took in an irresponsible adult and now you're suffering the consequences. Any woman that would drop her entire world to go chase some long distance Internet infatuation isn't thinking straight. She needs to grow up. And just because she's older doesn't mean she more mature. Tell her to find a new place to live sooner than later.

It was not very mature of her to move half way across the country to move in with some guy whom she (met on the internet). She sounds like a real character. I would talk to your mate and see what she thinks about it. If she thinks it is ok for her mother to walk into your home and do all of that then maybe you should consider different living arangements. I understand your girlfriend loves her mother but there but she has to realize that this is your house as well as hers.

You definitely need to do something. Tell your fiance how you feel and ask her how she would feel if your mom came and changed everything of hers and moved all her stuff. Put her in your shoes. If your fiance won't do anything, I'd be more pissed and just walk right up to your mother in law and tell her what's up. Tell her it's your apartment and that you pay rent. She needs to find her own place to live. If she doesn't listen do the same **** she did to you, take off her sheets and put yours on and pack her stuff up and say get out. If your fiance really loves you she will be supportive.

If your gf agrees with you you are lucky. Then as a united team you can explain that it is time for the mother in law and also the 18 yr old to move on. If your gf does not agree with that, re think your relationship

One of life's lessons learned! When you visit her, do the same thing back if your really really irritated by it. Otherwise, it takes a lot for an older woman to admit her mistakes if you try and talk to her about it. There's ALWAYS a justification of why she did what she did. It really depends on her personality. She may have thought she was doing you a favor too. My brother use to get furious when my mom would clean his room. He claimed he couldn't find anything after she did. She got her feelings hurt and never did it again. Good luck.

Well, the best thing to do is sit her down in a room with only you her and your girlfriend. Tell her that you appreciate her coming, but that it is your home and that she must be polite and ask before rearranging furniture. Also tell her that if she is going to be staying with you, you must set down some ground rules for example: always knock, ask before rearranging things and removing furniture, and unplugging cable. I hope you vote for me and chose me for best answer!

Talk it out with your girlfriend, tell her you understand your mother-in-laws situation but you never planned on living with her whole family.... Your girlfriend should understand how much more stress it puts on you, its your home too dont forget that! You need to have some boundaries, but make sure you stress the fact that its not that you hate her family its just that your on over-load with the new responsibility of having permanent fussy guests.

Aw hell naw. Mama needs to get her own place. That is disrespectful. That pisses me off just reading about it!!! Who cares if she is mad? This is your house with your girlfriend. She needs to respect that. Mama needs counseling. If you don't mind her staying tell her that she can stay but she has to respect your property. She is just a guest and guest don't rearrange furniture. She doesn't like it she can move on and move out.

She didn't show very good judgement by moving in with someone she met online. She needs to find her own place before she causes any more trouble. And she should take her son with her. Hopefully, your gf will stand up to her and you won't have to deal with that situation too much longer.
