Today, my boyfriend's bitch of a mother had surgery and now I'm expected to be her at-home nurse. I haven't been able to sit down for more than 5 minutes thanks to her and I've barely slept. FML

You're expected? As in your boyfriend asked you and you agreed? Or you felt as though you had no choice..? Kinda a dick move if the second, sorry OP.

I think you should talk to your boyfriend because he's probably unaware of the problem

Am I the only one who would actually tell their mother in law to **** off?

The woman just had surgery, I'm thinking now isn't the best time to discuss their relationship and feelings toward each other.

Yup. I'd tell her instead of getting the pickle jar surgically removed from between her cheeks she should have done something about her face so she could get a man to take care of her.

Being under the same roof as your mother in law is no fun, but I think that what you are doing for you boyfriends family is great.

Why stick around? If you're not her daughter in law, I don't get the obligation.

If you don't want to do it then don't do it..

I'm guessing her boyfriend and her live together and his mother might be recovering at their house. OP might not work but her boyfriend does therefore expected to take care of the bitch. That would make sense to me but hell if I know.

Ya, I was thinking that maybe op doesn't work and the boyfriend does, so she was asked to go stay with the mom while she recuperated. And I assume there were no other family member around or that didn't work. She probably feels like she has to do it seeing as she's the only one home all day and if she doesn't do it the boyfriend will have to take time off work to do it.

u lost me. y is this being expected of u in the first place? don't get pushed around. ask ur bf to find her a nurse instead.

There's gotta be a diamond ring waiting for you if you're going through all that.

You sound like a bitch of a girlfriend.

I would have said no, and walked away. I should not be obligated to do good things. Besides, it would not change a thing, so it isn't economical to do anything.

tell your boyfriend's mother to go to hell. And that you are helping her out of the kindness of your heart. That you do not have to help her. Even if she is your boyfriend's mother. talking to your boyfriend about this might be a good idea as well. But you stand up to her and cut her off at the knees if she starts getting demanding. You're not her personal indentured servant.
