To love my mother in law after this

So me and my partner went shopping tonight to our local shopping centre. Now to explain things I’ve been losing my hair since the summer through illness and stress so I’ve been trying various wigs in colours and styles but no one knows other than him .

anyway we’re shopping and I nipped into a shop and he waited outside. I come outside to him mid argument with someone. It’s his mum and she’s had a go at him thinking he was with another woman as she had seen us walking about. My heart dropped but in that moment I knew I was family to her and I felt bad for not saying about the wigs.

Did you pop out and show her it was you? It’s a bit shit for him that his own mum automatically assumed he was having an affair, nice for you though I guess

Wtf

You seem happy about his own mother immediately assumed her son was having an affair.

Does that not tell you something @BeeHive909 ?
