My husband and I moved back overseas to settle after my husband lived abroad for 25 years. We had to stay with his mum for 5 months while job hunting and house hunting. For some reason, she took a dislike to me, and I was ignored, shouted at, and given dirty looks in front of the family. Not being use to this sort of treatment I was really hurt and embarrassed. This lady is 83 years old, but still very mentally aware. I tried my best to turn a blind eye, but in the meantime I did everything I could in the house to show my appreciation, Cleaned, washed, scrubbed, and not once did she ever say thank you. Two weeks ago, I left and am 300 miles away staying with friends until we can move into our own place.
What hurts most of all, is my husband watched all of this, and never took a stand in my defense. it was as though he was too scared to tell her, if my wife isnt welcome, then nor am I. So he is there, and I am here. I am not sure whether I would be doing the right thing to go back to him. He basically gave her the message, its okay to ignore and shout at my wife, as I will still be the same towards you.
I am having a really hard time digesting this, and very indecisive as what would be the right thing to do.
