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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my hate for my mother-in-law now outweighs my love for my husband. FML
Today, I can no longer tolerate my mother-in-law. She's not a bad person, but anytime she opens her mouth it is only to criticize, chastise, scold, or blame me. My husband is too terrified of her to ask her to leave our home. FML
Today, my mother-in-law asked if she could move in with us. FML
Today, my mother-in-law yelled from across the house for me to come quickly. She sounded frantic, so I rushed and asked what was wrong. She said, "Nothing." and that she just wanted to remind me that she hates my guts. She'll be living here with me and my wife for the next two months. FML
Today, my husband refused to let my mother move in with us. He said he’d rather buy her another house than let her move in, then he actually threatened divorce before he’d let her move in. He’s never been this stubborn before about anything. I don’t get it. FML
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, my boyfriend's mother told me she had fantasies about throwing him out a window when he was a baby because she was so depressed and couldn't handle the stress. The worst part is he wants to get married. She'd be my mother-in-law. FML
Today, my mother-in-law told my fiancé that I had to leave and wasn’t allowed to live there anymore. I own the house. She’s mad because I locked the door so she couldn't walk in anytime she wanted. FML
Today, my husband wants a divorce and will be moving out as soon as possible because he can’t stand my mother anymore. He's tired of pushing me to stand up to her, even once, so he's done and is leaving. I’m upset he’s leaving, but I’m equally as upset he’s leaving me alone with my mother. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Her husband is the one making important decisions without even discussing them with her, which shows just how committed he is.

I hope you hate her for a good reason, otherwise you're just being irrational. FYL anyway mothers-in-law are such a pain most of the times. :(

WOW, some of the comments here... just WOW. "if you truly loved your husband you would put up with his mother and the rest of his family just to make him happy", WHAT THE HELL? And that's just the top of the iceberg. What is she, her husbands POSSESSION who's just supposed to be content with whatever shit he pops out with? If he wanted to have sex and she didn't, should he just let him RAPE her so that he'd be happy? ******* hell, are you guys seriously the same people sending soldiers to the middle east "For womens rights"? **** you. A lot. You should be disowned from humanity. Just letting his mother move in with them without even consulting his wife clearly shows he doesn't see her as an equal but as his slave or some shit. Slaves shouldn't "let" anyone do shit to them. OP, if you still want to be with him you should tell him how this is disrespectful to you and to your marriage. And if he doesn't respect that you should get the hell out and file for divorce so that he won't be able to live in the house either. Personally I'd just kick my wife out if she started bossing me around, but I'm not a married man and honestly don't know enough about your relationship to know if it's worth knocking off.:)

Are you ******* stupid? How do you equate RAPE to a wife acquiescing to her husbands wish of allowing the woman who gave birth to him, and raised and nurtured him for his entire life, to move in. You, are an ignorant piece of shit if you think that this signifies the wife's status as a possession to the husband. You are way too jaded to even rationally or fairly comment on an FML like this so why bother. Why don't you go somewhere and bother somebody else with your parroted preachings from a misinformed source you god damn idiot. Our soldiers are not at war for the rights of women in the middle east, our soldiers are at war to protect our country from terrorism. Spread your shitty double standard, liberal ramblings elsewhere, fool.

On one hand, have you actually tried consulting him first? If he knows how you feel about your mother in law, this is rather inconsiderate of him. If, on the other hand, you have failed to express your discontentment with the situation, you have only yourself to blame. If he has done this against your wishes, and especially if this kind of situation has happened before, you might have other reasons for a divorce.
