Re: This is my relationship with my in laws, is this normal?
Ive been engaged for 2.5 years, ive known my inlaws for more than 3 years. They really love daughters, however didnt have one so adopted one.
My MIL treats me like her daughter.. theres no formality there. ( in my sisters case her mil loves her but when she goes theres a formality like her MIL makes loads of food and all like you do in case of any guest? all that is absent in my case. she makes food but doesnt serve like guests)
Now the thing thats bothering me is, she just got back from america and her daughters green card got cancelled but she had to go back in emergency for a week after spending only 4 days here.. so she asked me to come whenever possible to see the daughter (shes only 6) and help her with arts stuff like making cards and all.
and as she was here for 4 days she couldnt unpack her bags and the weather changed all of a sudden.. so she asked me to unpack the bags, to put sweaters in one and so on.. obviously with the maids help..
does this attitude show that she takes me as a family or is she making me do her work in return for the expensive gifts?
she makes her sons do the work too, whatever there is but they cant handle clothes..
note: shes really nice with me, always caring for me.. like my feet are small so she got tons of shoes as she knew she wont be goin to america and i would need a years stock.. get it? i like make up and she got me nars and mac stuff.. so im lost here?
Shes treating u with love. She is TRUSTING u to do what she cannot do in her absence. She has CHOSEN YOU as her standin disregarding anyone else. U should be proud
