I was out for dinner this evening with DH, MIL and BIL. It was just a local pizzeria, a nice Italian place but nothing overly fancy at all. Now I will say I can be conscious of myself around MIL as she has a few eccentric little "ways". When the pizza came MIL offered it to me first and I attempted to take a slice but it was stuck to the one next to it and so I gently touched the one next to it to pull them apart IYSWIM. Well MIL looked sick!
BIL took the slice I had touched and carried on seemingly fine, but then MIL kept making a big deal for the rest of the meal of BIL or DH went to get a slice she would say "only touch the one you are going to take!" When DH said she was being over the top and asked her why she was being like that she just said "cleanliness!"
I had very clean hands and didn't manhandle the slice just a slight touch on the edge. In my family no one would care about that I just found MIL's reaction OTT! AIBU?
