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.

Sounds like you both need to grow a pair and learn how to say "no." You don't have to let anyone live there, even if it's your mother-in-"maw."

I'm feel your pain. I hate my soon to be father in-law and he just move into the duplex we just rented out.

I would tell her no and to keep her house. That's ****** up for her to try to push herself on you guys like that.

Since she's in good health, she won't have a heart attack when you tell her to get a new house. You just got married, you have your own family. That's not acceptable.

I would have no qualms telling my MIL to kick rocks. Hahaha. I have my own life and marriage to focus on, and I don't want to wear pants in my house. And she is bananas. Scary bananas.

Seeing as youre both against her moving in I would just straight up tell her no, and if she tries to guilt you just tell her she shouldnt have sold her house. Your house your rules, fukdatbitch

You have your own family now. Your mom comes second

Nope. Nope. Nope. If she's trying to pull a stunt like that just flat out tell her NO. It's a new marriage and you need your space. If she's lonely or whatever get a dog.

Mother-in-maw makes it sound like she's some demonic beast. I like it. I think I'm gonna use that.
