Thanks but no thanks

Today, I called my mom to see how she was doing. She quickly hijacked the conversation and said that she's signed me up for a dating site, because she feels bad that I can't find a decent man. I've been dating my boyfriend for seven months, and she's seen me with him multiple times. FML

The matchmaker

Today, my mom has been aggressively trying to get me to marry one of her coworkers, who is around my age. Apparently she loves her like the daughter she always wanted, and since it would be silly to adopt her; she is determined she will be her daughter-in-law instead, whether I like it or not. FML

Today, my future mother-in-law blamed me for the death of her husband because I should have taken him to the ER when she didn't feel like it. She then blamed me for her getting a new boyfriend less than two months later and making her son hate her when she insisted he call the guy "Dad". FML

Today, my fiancé expressed concern for her mother's health and a desire to be with her in Texas. I called her mother, who is 69 years young and will outlive us all, and it came up that her brother's BFF, who my fiancé has been crushing on since she was a tween, just got divorced and moved back to Texas.

Mother-in-law called your boyfriend? Are you a widow or are you cheating on her son? If the former, why does she have his number?

She’s only your mother in law if you are married to her son. Otherwise she’s just your boyfriend’s mom… The only other explanation is you are a cheat with a husband and a boyfriend.

In contrary to the rest of the commentaries here, I do understand that you call your boyfriend's mother your mother-in-law, as I've done with my girlfriend's mother as well; when you've been in a serious relationship for a certain amount of time, it feels natural to adress one's in-laws as such. And, I'm very sorry you've ended up with a shitty mother-in-law who's working against you!
