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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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-law asked if she could move in with us. FML
Today, my mother-in-law announced that she's going to be moving into the apartment next to us. Oh joy. FML
Today, my mother-in-law moved in with my husband and I, where she shits the bed and herself. There's a waiting list for the nursing home, so in the meantime I’m cleaning up her shit and she isn’t even my mother. 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 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, 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, I found out that my toxic mother-in-law's retirement plans include moving in with us when she gets old. The death glares I’m getting from my wife right now are so worth the satisfaction I got from telling that evil old bat I’d burn the house down first before I let her move into it with us. FML
Today, my boyfriend threw a fit because I "still" live with my mother at age 30. I bought her an apartment in my building and hired a live-in nurse because she is senile and permanently bedridden. FML
Today, my mother-in-law moved into my wife's two-bedroom apartment. She's quite possibly the reincarnation of Hitler himself, and she'll be staying until this time next year. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

It is obvious that she is doing this out if evil intentions so maybe try to put her in a nursing home and visit her every week at least.

Yeah it's totally acceptable to say no to that.

I know damn well I cannot stand my grandmother in law and nor could my family. She knew how to control my step mom and she was a royal bitch during the entire time we housed and fed her. She's always been a royal bitch outside of that too, I guess. As soon as her favorite, rich daughter changed her mind and said that woman could live her [because she needed a babysitter] my grandmother in law took off. Hell no to the grandma/mother in laws.

Just tell her hell no. Maybe get a restraining order. Honestly, she sounds half crazy at least.

I would go crazy! If it was my mom or my mother in law! Hope things turn out well. I'd probably kill someone and live in prison then live with one of them for more then a week

I know it's hard to say no to your grandma but you gotta tell her no and suggest nursing homes

I give this Union six more months. Poor OP!!! Good luck w that. Tell her no, or lose your wife. The choice is yours!

Tell her no. She can't force herself into your lives like that. If she throws a fit about it, let her. Don't give in to her. Even if she shows up on your front doorstep with her bags, tell her no. If she starts screaming and bitching or tries to force her way into the house, call the cops.

No. No is a complete sentence. You decide who lives in your house, and you can tell her NO. Also, change your locks, and don't give her a key. She didn't ask. She told you. She informed you that she would move in, and take over your life. Don't let her do it. For the sake of your marriage, and your own sanity, don't let her do it!
