Mother-in-law sends worst email ever to bride: forgivable?

[USF Sam]

I feel sorry for the guy. He is totally screwed.

 

[StripedCat]

I agree with everything she said. :dunno

:homo:'llama


In my opinion, she is right with everything she says in that letter. I'm aware that people regard it as more polite to keep silent and ignore such misbehaviour, but actually that is the wrong way.

And tbh, this bride really seems to be very unpolite and ill-bred... Seems that it was about time that someone kept telling her all this..

IMO, her writing all this down for the bride to read is more impolite and ill-bred than asking for seconds at dinner.

I'm lucky. I love my wonderful Daughter-in-Law :nod: Even if she does pronounce certain words funny D

Awww Moonie you just made me blush.... !!!! I am glad you love me, cause I love my Moonie in Law soon to be Grand-Moonie you are awesome!!!

 

[AstriaPorta]

does not matter how wrong the bride is ... all i see is one noisy and bossy inlaw to be

For sure.

That's going to be one interesting family.

I can sort of see her point. but I also think it's rude to do some of things her daughter in law apparently did, like remark about not having enough food, say she won't eat certain foods

What that excerpt of the email doesn't mention, is that the future daughter-in-law is diabetic. I'm pretty sure that makes her less 'fussy' and more 'cautious' when it comes to what she will/can and won't/can't eat.



Either way, I think the mother in law is being a stuck up cow... at the end of the day, the DIL was not really so much of a guest, as what she is family. And that would change how I behave around people. Sounds to me she just felt comfortable enough in her new family to be herself, and didn't pretend to be more than she is, unlike the mother in law.

That makes a huge difference. MIL sucks.

If I was Heidi I'd run far and fast!!! There are a few valid points in the letter, specifically the one that mentions that a more modest wedding may be more reasonable considering the financial situation. I work nightshift and I keep my routine on my days off. I wouldn't change my sleeping patterns simply b/c some old biddy likes to rise w/ the chickens!!!

The latest news on this is that the one who sent the email is her STEP mother-in-law.

Her real mother-in-law (Freddie's actual mother) really likes Heidi apparantly: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...other-calls-bride-Heidi-Withers-charming.html

 

[Peter Parka]

I agree with the Mother in law. Who exactly made this e-mail public anyway? Hmmm.......

 

[HottyToddyChick]

Going off the email posted in the first post only, the DIL sounds like my MIL. I wonder if I could get this lady to draft a similar email to my MIL.

 

[AUDRAA]

I think the MIL is a nit picky bitch and obviously doesnt like her DIL for other reasons to being picking such petty reasons as what she will and wont eat and how much she can eat. Whats so wrong with saying you dont like something and if the DIL wants seconds maybe she should take it as a compliment that her cooking for that meal was good enough to want to add more to her plate.

 

[BadBoy]

How cool would it be to have the last name Bourne?

 

[Panacea]

Oh just look at her

 

[JoeCool10]

Wow.... Just, wow.

 

[Panacea]

Oh just look at her

I know this is old by now but... LOL
Resemblance? I see one.

 

[BleedingBull]

lol I cant see the issue,, most the stuff she mentioned is correct manners

 

[MyPaperBleeds]

What is this nonsense? You can't get second helpings unless the host says you can? You can't eat before everyone else? You have to wake up when everyone else does?

Granted, the rest of it seemed a little rude on the bride's part, but the mother in law should have discussed this with her to her face or at least asked her son to do it.

But after that last line or two, I wouldn't be surprised if the bride and son never step foot in that woman's house again.

And we wonder why Les Dawson and his ilk launched the plethora of mother-in-law jokes!
