Mom Tells Son God Is Disappointed In Him For Marrying His Wife

Relationships July, 01, 2025

Having good terms with in-laws is a hard nut to crack. It reaches its heights when it comes to falling into the family line. It is not odd to see in-laws jumping in the family planning to give the couples a tough time. They have to toil hard to keep them at bay while living a happy marital life. A Reddit user saw a similar situation when her mother-in-law moved in them.

With the winds of COVID-19 raging around the world, the woman decided to let her mother-in-law move in with them. Her husband was very close to his family. The woman had built a friendly relationship with her after dating her love of life for nine years. The couple had been married for a year. Unbeknownst of the pending family disasters, she looked ahead to have a good time with her.

One day, she got home from work enduring hard with endometriosis pain. She told her husband about it and got some painkillers. She went in to have a nap to ebb the pain. However, she could not catch her relief for long. She woke up with shouts roaring around her house. She saw her mother-in-law telling her husband that God had been disappointed in him for choosing a terrible wife. Not just that, she called her lazy for not leaving her job and becoming pregnant. Her husband was catholic while she was an atheist. But that did not create problems for them before.

Thus, she was shocked to see her mother-in-law giving it a religious turn. Not just that, the mother-in-law had also called her murderer of his son’s child when she suffered a miscarriage last year. But she had kept her cool that time sensing the severity of the situation.

The mother-in-law had crossed her line. The woman was thus in no mood to make it up with her anymore. She packed her bag and asked her to leave. The mother-in-law refused and cited it to be her son’s house. However, she left.

The woman got disturbing comments from the family. Her husband also felt that she dragged it too far.

Thus, to find the way, she turned to Reddit and shared her story. Ending her post, she said, “I accepted her calling me a murderer because I thought it was her grieving for her grandchild but now I just can’t put up with her anymore,” she wrote. “I think I’m in the right….. so Reddit, Am I the A–hole?”

Her reaction received a mixed response.

One of the commenters said, “Your MIL sucks, no question about. Way worse than everyone else. But (and I don’t know if you have done this already) talk to your husband about how you want to resolve your shared problem. I think maybe you did overreact — but you were certainly right to feel the way you feel”.

Another said, “You went down to her level when you threw her stuff out. Kicking her out was too much”.

Some supported her for sticking to her stance.

Hopefully, the family would have managed to douse the emotional fire.
