The last few times my MIL has phoned and I have answered, she has asked for DH without saying a single word to me. I do realise that she much prefers to speak to him, but I think the odd pleasantry before I hand her over isn't too much to expect.
The back story is that she and I have always had a pretty good relationship, but it's deteriorated somewhat over the last couple of years - for no specific reason that I can put my finger on, although DD2 was born two years ago and MIL finds the fact that DD2 has special needs very challenging. It's obviously put a strain on the whole family. And MIL has been ill herself, on and off.
Nonetheless, even if MIL is feeling stressed etc, it's no excuse for her being so off-hand with me. And here's the point where I confess that I was so irritated with her for doing it again last night, I emailed her to ask why. I have not had a reply! DH is livid beyond belief, as he thinks he should handle relations with his family.
AIBU to be fed up with this?
