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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, in the entire half-hour since my mother-in-law reached our home, she's inspected and criticised every aspect of our home, despite things being spot clean. And sermoned me non stop on how to "live". My husband still wonders why I don't want her visiting. It"s going to be a long two weeks. 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 was told by step-dad, who I live with, that my mom "hates my guts" while smiling so big, because he got a call from her. He's so desperate for her to come back that all the lying, cheating, manipulation, and emotional abuse doesn't push him away. She's a tornado. FML
Today, and since we've had our baby, my mother-in-law started coming round more often, then bringing her stuff to stay overnight, then started claiming she lived here, and got hysterical when we told her she doesn’t. I had to pick her up and place her outside while she punched me in the head repeatedly. 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, 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 told me she thinks it is time for me to move into my own place. I agreed with her and went to look at studios/flats online. She later came into my room, saw me looking at places and then got pissed off at me, saying that I hate her for wanting to leave her. 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, I visited my in-laws, whom I thought I was on great terms with. I soon learned that wasn't the case when my mother-in-law yelled at me about how I've been abusing her for years. Ten minutes later, she hugged me and asked me for grandkids. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Apparently she's never heard of " The Boy Who Cried Wolf."

ryanthecheeseguy 18
Yeah, Op's going to let a wolf eat her.
kaitlynjane 28
Actually no, that's not what the story is really about. Have YOU ever read "The Boy Who Cried Wolf?"
Krystal3408 32
She will learn it all the hard way

Just tell her that your house is haunted and that strange accidents have happened there. Then tell her it would be just awful if she had one of those accidents

16 - He does, he was just trying to be funny. Obviously, he failed.
nurchok 15
16, I think 10 was speaking figuratively... But OP, you've got to earn your in-laws' love.
ywolfgl 21
I don't think u can sometimes

Well at the end of the story *spoiler alert* he cried wolf and nobody comes. so he gets eaten by a wolf.

My Fiancé has learned you can't. We have been together 3 years and and they still hate him and say he will leave me every month. They laughed when I told them we were engaged and said he doesn't want to marry me. They make fun of him every time he does or says anything. A couple months ago my Grandma said she would basically disown me if I had a kid out of wedlock (even though my prostitute cousin just had one and she is excited) so I told her not to worry and that we are waiting until marriage......then she started laughing and asking if he had a penis at all and "What kind of nan would wait?" "He must have something wrong with him, he either doesn't have a penis or he needs a little blue pill if he can't perform" "I don't need to worry about you getting pregnant if he can't get it up." And he is as nice as can be to everyone. My friends love him and their kid loves him too. Sometimes in-laws are just assh*les.

105: wow, are you kidding me?! That's ******* ridiculous. Just reading that makes me want to slap your grandmother in the face, and I would never normally do that. That is awful, I'm so sorry you and your fiancé have to deal with that :(
nurchok 15
Well, that is very sad to hear, 105. Your grandma deserves to have your fiancee's dick rubbed in her forehead. I think if a girl is happily married, her side of the family should only be happy for her...

Like I always say I can write FML's all day long about my family. My Grandpa had sat down after a long day at work and she was telling him about it asking him "There has to be something wrong with him!?!?! Isn't there?! He doesn't want to have sex!" and my Grandpa just sighed and said " Leave it alone [Grandma's name] if they want to wait then let them. There isn't anything wrong with it. If there is something mentally or physically wrong with either of them then that is between the two of them." And she just kept going so I left. Sadly my Grandpa and I are the only sane ones in the family.

What a bitch hehehe xD
zandalee 20
Make her leave if it is your house. Stand up to the bitch or she will make your life a living hell!
illegalbeagle69 23
Or drop her toothbrush in the toilet..
matthewesparza12 13
Just adding on to...#45 Or take a shit on the toliet seat... And refuse it was you and maker her clean it up...just take a shit anywhere, on the carpet, in the shower, on her bed...
phoneYuNOlisten 16
It's not her house.
DividableByZero 11
Why are you obsessed with ******** on everything?
SolarFlare 20
yeah and then will smell OP's house like shit. I like the idea with the toothbrush.
brackaman 18
Personally I'd feed her nothing but dog treats for the two months. If anyone asks why just say that if she's gonna act like a bitch she might as well eat like one.
robotiick7 23
90- I'd say just clean the plunger with her toothbrush.
AppleJuiceBox 10
Tell her the feeling's mutual. I'm sure if you show that you don't care she'll stop.
TheDistance567 10
See but that's a risky prospect to do that to an in-law. She could cause problems between OP and his wife. Best to just ignore her.
Damian95 16
We already know the stereotype on in-laws. Might as well play it safe.
angeluv_2014 22
Exactly. Why don't you just kick her ass out, OP?? It's your house too, and you don't have to put up with being treated that way. That's bullshit- if you're putting her up for two months, then she can cut that shit out.
Rawr6591 21
she needs to respect they're relationship

So close #6. So close
ButterflyLadyBug 14
teemo !! omg . sorry idk why I got so excited upon seeing that but I had to comment . so unrelated but um yeah carry on ....
phoneYuNOlisten 16
How original 6
emilyjgraham 34
In all fairness, she did comment at the same time as the previous. So why is only 6's comment unoriginal??
Ins0mau 20
94 - To be fair. They're both unoriginal.
ryanthecheeseguy 18
Douchecanoe detected.
CoffeeChickBlows 13
Hey bro, you already used that one on the drivers test FML. It's okay, we already think you're cool and witty, no need to disguise the word as a comment.
botanistjessica 24
I enjoy reading these random insult words as much as the next guy, but "douchecanoe" makes zero sense whatsoever.
TheDrifter 24
What gets douches and is vaguely shaped like a canoe? Use your imagination, we'll wait.
mcm_3 16
HA! You saw that too?!?!?
starile 20
#12, it was actually another chick that originally used "douchecanoe" in the other FML. This guy here just decided to copy that word and use it here. A little too soon, I think.
buckeye_state 11
that's exactly what happened!
CaptMurdock 25
Ah the monster-in-law. Maybe you should return the favor. You could try standing outside her room in the middle of the night and scream her name, then say you just wanted her to know the feeling is mutual.
hbake 13
All i can say is this is a definite FYL.
AmyPond17 33
If only there were a button for that...
j_729 18
Yeah. That would be so nice. No more "wow that sucks" comments...
RoseBlack123 37
Sounds like my grandma. She even told my mom that she deserves to die and crap. You really should talk to your wife about this and confront her as a couple. That should stop her. If not, charge her rent per day she spends with y'all. That'll show her
