Mother in Law struggles. Husband not putting up boundaries.

Girl you do NOT need her approval . That's what she wants you to feel . Don't let her make you feel miserable .
Is she married ???
Sounds like she's jealous of you and your husband ..
@Victoria Saint-Brice she’s never been married. And he’s the only child.
@Victoria Saint-Brice she straight up told me she didn’t like me bc I’m light skinned, pretty with good hair. Like WHAT?
Reminds me of my child's father's mother. She's miserable and jealous . If she could, she'd take her son from you . You need to talk to your husband , and keep respect for her while you talk because she's apart of his identity, she raised him . But she can't look you in the eyes ? Your light make her shrink. It has nothing to do with you. It has everything to do with her. Don't let that negative energy into your house/your bed. Thanks for starting to let it go. You're doing great .
Pray about it . He's her world..
@Victoria Saint-Brice I really appreciate it! Yes I try to give him grace bc I know that’s his mother, but it’s really starting to affect him too! He feels like there is nothing he can do right! I did have to have a conversation with him about stopping her when she is disrespectful. It’s a very uncomfortable situation to be in! I’ve tried my best to be respectful, we always show up to family things, we try to make her feel special and it’s never enough. I will continue to pray about it. Honestly I thought it would get better over the years, but it’s only gotten worse! Ugh thank you so much for the responses!
Personally I would tell my partner how I feel and then stop interacting with her. His family his problem.
Wow do not let her dim your light girl. Keep slaying with the outfits the makeup and the pretty hair. If your husband doesn't want to set the boundaries you might have to. If he doesn't want to call out her toxicity you might have to in front of him. And he needs to have your back while you do it. You two are one flesh and on one accord. She ain't got no business trying to be all up in y'all's business while trying to mess with your head. She needs to go find a hobby If anything tell your husband to help her find a hobby so that she got something else to do instead of being miserable and spraying her misery all over the place
She's acting like a damn child . She is not y'all's responsibility. Y'all shouldn't have to do all that. You two have your lives and your building together to worry about
I wouldn’t be doing anything for her, he might have to choose in the end either from you or the mom. I’d let the husband interact w her, but yeah if she’s respectful to you around the children maybe otherwise excuse me I shall depart
I wouldn't be going around her anymore and she wouldn't be seeing my children either. She has made it clear she has no interest or respect for you so why should she get to have a relationship with your children.
