My mother-in-law is not easy at the best of times and is quite interfering and opinionated. I do cut her a lot of slack though as she is in her late 70's and not able to get out much due to breathing difficulties and I know she gets really fed up.
She lives in a different county to us and its quite a treck but we do make an effort to go up and see her and fil every few weeks and we speak to them on the phone a couple of times a week.
Today though she has requested me as a friend on facebook and tbh i'm mortified! I use facebook to keep in touch with friends who are dotted around the country and my sister who lives abroad.
I really don't want mil to see everything i might post on there. It feels like she is almost keeping tabs on me. Not that I do or say anything bad but who wants their mil breathing down their neck at every turn??
What do i do, as yet I have ignored her request. I really really don't want to accept her but don't want to hurt her feelings either ahhhh1
