Fiance: The thing is already soaked in butter; do you really think you need more butter?
Its like a lot of calories.
You were supposed to be on a fitness thing anyway.
MIL: Excuse me.
Hey, who raised you?
Fiance: You did.
MIL: I did and I did not raise you to be talking to her like that.
She asked you for somethingyou need to get it for her.
Fiance: I was trying to help her out; its for her benefit.
MIL: She doesnt need you counting her calories or intake of her butter.
She wants butter; she can have butter.
MIL: Who are you?
Seriously, who are you?
Because you are not my child, I didnt raise you like this.
Fiance: Oh, I tried to be helpful.
MIL: Do you realize that you outkick your coverage with this girl?
Fiance: Oh, I dont know about that.
You sure about that one?
MIL: I dont understand you.
I didnt raise you to talk to her that way, to any woman that way.
You dont treat me that way.
When the relationships are warm, they thrive.
In families that means having people you love, trust, and can rely on.
You look forward to get-togethers and holiday celebrations.
That said, keeping difficulties at bay can be super tricky, she added.
The dynamic between a mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law can be especially tricky.
Two-thirds of daughters-in-law believed that their husbands mother frequently exhibited jealous, maternal love toward their son.
So, its really awesome to see that Keely and Gail have each others backs.
The bride-to-be said Gail was very relieved when she found out that the whole thing was just a prank.
A few even called it manipulative.
But Keely said, Were all very sarcastic.
Like, the whole family is filled with jokes, so it was easy to brush off after that.
And people have had many different reactions to it
Thanks!
