Awkward silence

Today, my husband and I finally had the house to ourselves, so we had unusually loud sex. Banging bed, yelling obscenities, super rowdy, etc. I then see my mother-in-law out the window. She had let herself in, dropped off a bag and apparently ran out. Thanksgiving is going to be weird. FML

Well, it's her fault. She shouldn't have just let herself into your house without prior consent. So don't let it be weird for you.

Stare into her eyes at the table on thanksgiving, assert your dominance

Agreed. Just act natural at Thanksgiving. She should know better than to enter someone's home without at least knocking/ringing the bell before letting herself in.

To be fair, the FML doesn't say whether she had "prior consent" or not. She might come over all the time and not expect to need to knock. Sometimes things are no one's fault, just bad timing.

3, or calling and giving you a heads up that they're coming over.

Show it anyway

Sometimes, you people have sick, sick minds about MIL's.

Not just MILs, almost everyone. I hate comments like these, and they are on every FML where a couple is caught.

Yeah, but as not as bad if it weren't a relative.

Lol. Exactly what your profile pic is doing?

Did you make eye contact with her? Then it'd be weird. If not, she's got no reason to think you know. Not mamas baby boy anymore lol

That sucks, for sure. But on the other hand, if you have the kind of situation where your mother in law can let herself in (and that's normal for you), its your fault. If that's not a normal thing, then its her fault. Just act like nothing happened for Thanksgiving, sex is normal.

I don't feel that even if its a normal thing that it's not her fault because it's not like you can prepare for that and I mean they were alone in their own house. Perhaps it should just be that the mother-in-law isn't the bad guy if it's normal.

The **** is wrong with her just coming into your house? SHE is the one who should be embarrassed.

Why would it be awkward? Oh my god you had sex with your husband!

Aka the MIL's son. Sex is normal but that doesn't mean it's not awkward in certain situations.

Greet her with "Happy Spanksgiving." Offer her some gravy, saying, "Your son made the gravy -- I love his gravy," Tell her she can have the wishbone, you already have the bone you wished for. Then, she'll give you two weeks notice before she comes over and she'll be in a hazmat suit.
