Is your mother-in-law secretly an interior decorator?
Or maybe she just thinks your taste inhome decorneeds a little, maybe a lot, of help.
Some mother-in-laws have this magical ability to be both helpful and infuriating at the same time.
Its like theyve earned a PhD in meddling and specialized in driving you up the wall.
But instead, she walked into what looked like a set for ahouseflipping TV show.
None other than the OPs mother-in-law, a woman with no concept of boundaries, apparently.
But if you think that stopped the mother-in-law, youve seriously underestimated her determination.
Lets just say the room no longer resembled anything like the cozy space it once was.
It was as if a particularly ambitioustoddlerhad decided to redecorate.
But this wasnt a one-time offense.
Oh no, this mother-in-law has a track record that could make anyones blood boil.
Or that special occasion when she organized the kitchen drawers, leaving nothing where it could be easily found.
Not to mention her tendency to destroy clothes in the name of ironing.
And lets not forget the time she secretly fed the familydogto make it like her more.
As if it were that easy.
The cherry on top?
It was like watching someone pour salt into a wound and then ask, Does it hurt?
The OP was stuck rearranging the entire room and avoiding the guilt-loaded text messages from her overbearing mother-in-law.
Its like theyve got an unspoken mission to rearrange not just your living room but your entire life.
Well,expertssay this kind of behavior could be the result of a few things.
Maybe she grew up in a tough environment, where control was the name of the game.
Lucky us, right?
Or maybe narcissism is in the mix here.
She openly shares her judgments and opinions often, despite resistance from you and your family.
Its all about being polite but firm.
Think of it as saying, Thanks, but no thanks, with a smile.
