That's so insensitive of her! How dare she! Cheeky cow! I can't people some people just have such little self awareness with the things they come out with! I'm so sorry she said those things to youMy mother in law, she’s a twit. I’m going through some personal stuff and she won’t leave me alone. She’s constantly texting me, phoning me, trying to FaceTime me. I just ignore but sadly we live next door to her Mum who she visits everyday. So she’s taken upon herself to knock everyday! I’ve just went through two miscarriages back to back, I’m still suffering physically and very much emotionally, yesterday I gave my partner a hug cos he was going somewhere whilst she was there and she says ‘careful Mr Melon, she’ll be getting horny again now, make sure you wrap it up so you don’t end up with another one’ who says that to someone who is still going through a miscarriage????? Whenever she sees me, even though she knows what happened to me, what’s happened at hospital appointments, what’s happened during the aftermath, from my partner, she continues to ask me, even though she knows it all anyway cos her sons already told her, but she still does it, and makes stupid bleeping comments. Like ‘maybe you shouldn’t have tried again’ or the best one was, ‘I don’t think I’d have liked another grand child anyway, I’d favourite (my son I already have) anyway’ she’s a bleep. And if I say anything to my partner he says ‘she’s only trying to help’ or about her stupid comments ‘she’s just trying to be funny’
That's shocking tbh. Massively, massively insensitive and not remotely helpful or funny. I'm sorry you have to cope with all of that.My mother in law, she’s a twit.

You want to rant today about something that happened years ago??When I was a kid our school football team made it to the final of a local competition.
I was a striker who was tied for the most goals in the tournament with another player on our team.
I also had some experience in net and had been keeper a few games the previous year.
Our starting keeper got hurt so the coach (PE teacher) said I had to go in net.
I told him I wanted to keep playing striker since this was the last game of the tournament and I could win the top scorer award.
He still said no and I ended up going in net.
We were up 2-0 when he put me in net.
Final score: 2-5
I pretended to dive to make saves if there was a shot on goal.
But what I was really doing was diving over the ball so it still looked like I was making a great effort even though they scored on 5 shots that I could have saved if I didn't purposely dive over the ball.
Parents were still congratulating me after the match about what a great game I played and how amazing my dives were.
Some of the other kids on the team knew what was going on, but I was well-known as the hardest kid in school so they just sulked about it.
Plus since the other guy I was tied with didn't score we both jointly got the top scorer award.
I would see that same PE teacher looking all dishevelled in a pub many years later, but that’s a story for another day.

Totally empathise with you. 9 times out 10 I say yes and the one time you say no, they get the arse. I spent a bomb on my nieces when they were little. They’re grown up? My teenage son gets barely anything from them. I know it’s petty but it hurts.I have an inner ear infection and it really hurts, I feel rubbish all day. My brother text me earlier and asked would I watch my niece tonight overnight, I said no because I didn’t feel great and was having an early night, he replied with ‘bit selfish but alright no problem’ I do so much with my nieces and nephews, I am a very involved aunt and it’s so annoying that the one time I say no that is the response.
