Today, I found out that my unemployed and very needy mother-in-law will be moving in with us soon. And during my conversation on the phone with her, she expects us to buy a house and my wife and I can "live with her." My wife agrees with all of this. FML

Today, my mother-in-maw informed us that she sold her house and is moving in with us so we'll "take care" of her in old age. She's in perfect health. We've only been married for 4 months. My wife can't stand her for more than 2 weeks at a time, let alone living with us. FML

Today, I came home from a week-long vacation, only to find my mother-in-law didn't just dog-sit while I was gone; she moved in, along with all her possessions, and seems to think it's a permanent deal. FML

Today, after I just bought a house that is pretty good and suits all our needs for space, my in-laws moved in because they ran into financial troubles. Guess who is stuck with all the extra expenditures? FML

Today, my husband told me that he's letting his mother move in with us. He told her it was alright without even consulting me first. I hate my mother-in-law so much that I'm contemplating divorce rather than living with her. FML

Today, I found out that my mother has been telling several people that my fiancé and I will be moving into her house for the foreseeable future. All because we're moving to a city close by for jobs and are still searching for housing. I found this out from several of the people she told. FML

You might want to go ahead and stop your mother-in-law now before you have two wives.

Divorce would take too long, and likely would only make things worse for you. Stand your ground, and have no part in it. If your wife thinks it's a good idea, then it's her choice to blow her hard-earned money to support her "needy" parent. Just make sure you keep your money safe so she can't spend it.

Tell her you'll leave her it's u or her mom. I'm in the same situation my mother in law is 65 and never has had a job longer than six months and thinks social sec will cut it. Fml

Time to get the "monster in law" some medication for her dementia & your wife some therapy for her "co-dependence & inability to just say NO." If you buy a house, it's YOURS..NOT the mother-in-law's so technically SHE'D be living with you, NOT the other way around...I say put ma in a nursing home if she's old enough. Either way, MAN UP & tell them both "HELL NO!"
