Re: Should I feel insecure?
I had a very different thought to share with you before I read this part. I was about to harp on about taking your life by the neck so that they really have no choice but to respect you. I was also going to ask why does it have to be between your mom’s house and his house - why rule out the third and probably the best option - your house, find a job and start your life from scratch again with all the wisdom and lessons you’ve learned. And then some more about living with dignity and self-respect taking precedence over pretty much all else including having the marriage tag.
But then I read this post and…you’ve apparently labelled yourself and come to terms with your situation.
On another note, your MIL is making up for the loss of her teen years and for the 15 years her husband didn’t spend nor live with her. Some vicious cycle, isn’t it.
P.s. you can make decisions for yourself - that’s how you got married to this guy on the first place, remember.
