Mother-In-Law's a freak

Ugh, my man's mother is a freak. She bashes him to me all the time and I told my SO about it and he's witnessed it. He's bad with money, women,,,blah, blah, so she says.

Well, HE TOLD HER OFF. Keep in mind that I have never done anything wrong to this woman and have shown her the upmost respect. She told him that after I graduate I will leave him and go back to my home state and that I start the bashing conversations. Of course he doen't believe her, he knows how she is, but this woman will not leave us alone.

How the heck do I deal with my anger. I just wanna tell her off, the big Fork You, but she will cry like last time.

She has been trying to get me to dump him so she can have her son back to mother. I think she's jelous. He's been married twice before me and now that I think about it, she could very well be the reason why they left. He says that she used to never be like that, that his mother is dead, and whomever is in that body over there is NOT his mother.

'Of course he doen't believe her, he knows how she is,'

Then you two need to come up with a plan and stick with it. Can you ignore her completely? Don't argue with her, don't acknowledge her comments. Tell her if she continues you will leave, hang up, whatever.

'but this woman will not leave us alone.'

Does he want her in his life or is he miserable? She can't break up your marriage unless you let her.
