This woman has been overbearing, controlling, rude, bitter and nasty for far too long. I've answered back a few times but I've never felt like I properly told her how I felt... until today!
Put up with her shit for way too long, yes she has a decent side to her but more recently she has become unbearable with her constant judgey, rude and bullying comments that I told her how I felt today. I wasn't nasty but straight to the point. I feel quite proud actually as she is a very difficult women who has a fucking answer for everything.
No I didn't mention everything she's done wrong over the years, just the last month actually but there was enough shit there that I clearly made my point. Her last comment to me was 'leave it there'. I'd love nothing more than to leave it there tbh but I do have DCs who have a good relationship with her, I won't stop them from seeing her, my eldest DD is old enough to make her own decisions about who she sees. I do use her for childcare now and again but I 've made sure my next month of shifts are catered for without the need for her childcare. That gives me chance to see how this pans out.
Has anyone else been through this? I have to say it feels good but I do get moments of regret! DP has been supportive, he knows what she's like and has had to tell her off quite a few times in the past. This woman does not listen though but I'm hoping I got through to her today loud and clear.
For those who have been through this how did things pan out? Or advise from anyone else would be great. Would go into more detail about it but my last post was deleted when I tried to get advice on her last antics. Not sure if people thought I was making it up because that's how weird it was but it was the straw that broke the camels back! As this final straw was about DD I think I felt much stronger sticking up for her than I would have myself.
