Today, everything that was beautiful and pure in my life turned into a terrible, warped version of what it once was. Today, I lost all hope and no longer believe that life, although sometimes shitty, is sweet and worth living. Today, I met my mother-in-law. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my hate for my mother-in-law now outweighs my love for my husband. 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
Today, my future mother-in-law started shit-talking me on Facebook, and we got into a heated argument. She called me later in the day, saying I'll be lucky if I ever marry her son and that, "You'll suffer to your last breath." I'm now terrified to set foot outside. FML
Today, I was trying to cope with my emotions so I could hold them back, but mom made it worse by inviting my niece, who is only attracted to my sister-in-law AKA Mommy, and she will cry till she gets her way. What a fucking day. FML
Today, my mom came home heavily drunk. As I was taking care of her, she told me all about how I was a mistake. That didn't hurt nearly as much as when she told me she wishes I'd died during her pregnancy. FML
Today, my mother-in-law passed away. She wasn’t even cold yet when my wife told me she wanted a divorce. Apparently, only her mother guilt-tripping her kept us together the last few years, but now she’s dead, she’s dumping my ass. FML
Today, things got so bad with my mother-in-law that I seriously considered faking my entire family's deaths to escape it all. FML
Today, my mother looked me dead in the face and said, "I have failed as a parent." FML
Today, I am living a nightmare. My mother is now friends with my wife and my mother-in-law, plus my sister is now friends with my wife’s sisters. All that needs to happen now is they all get together in the same room and my life will be over; it will be a 7 on 1 massacre, and I’ll be the 1. FML
Today, my mom said, "I'm sorry your life is such shit." She meant it as an apology. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

This is probably the most poetic description of the abomination otherwise known as a monster-in-law.

It all started when she hijacked your computer, didn't it?

You didn't meet your spouse's family before you married them?

I fought wars with the Old Battle-Ax that never ended. I'm young enough to look at, but far too old to see. All the scars are on the inside. She won the majority of them, but I had my moments! One that comes to mind was me telling her the horse knew what to do when she bragged about getting her license the first try. (I didn't) If looks could kill... Sadly, she's in the last stages of Alzheimer's. In her confusion, she thinks I'm the greatest. In my confusion, I think she is too.

Actual mother-in-law or future mother-in-law? Either way, the fact that you managed to have a whole relationship with your girlfriend from the first meeting to the point where she became your wife/fiancé without ever meeting her mother is quite telling.

I love how you worded that...in-laws at times can be bad...but maybe things will look up...
