I love and get on very well with my dm. I also love and get on well with my mil.
I live about 3hrs drive away from both of them.
Since moving out I've never lived near my mum, and we speak once of twice a month. We have our own lives going on, but we care about eachother's lives so we enjoy our contact. I see her every 3/4 months and we text/favebook every week.
My mil likes to call me every other day for a chat about nothing, she's lovely but it's too much! My dh works away so she speaks to him maybe once a month.
It's stiffling. To the point that I see her name on my phone and sigh. I have no new news from 2 days ago, the convos are short and strained as I have 2 young dc to look after. I'm mot great at phone convos in general but it's worse when 2yr old wants your attention at same time!
I want to ask her not to call so much but not sure how to. Aibu to even consider it?
