Nobody knows for certain if the OP is RRR. What if it's not and it's genuinely someone hurting emotionally. Obviously those making fun or being mean to her says more about you than the OP.

It's the same story: mother with a personal issue, angry son with a woman the OP hates. Son hates mother, mother doesn't see she caused the problem. Exact same story. What are the odds?

Noel, did you happen to read the thread about the worst gifts ever received? I think it's on the beauty board.

It seems like a lot of mil's and dil's really dislike each other! I never knew my mil...she died before I ever met her, and I have a great relationship with my dil.

But...reading this board...I think a lot of family relationships might involve similar people.

Out of all the families in this country....there could be more than one woman who posts something similar here.

It was never just a story of DIL/MIL issues, it was much more than that. It was always a game for the author, to see how far she could take it. If people want to tag along for another ride, so be it.

No one starts off on a MB, especially in VP, revealing this amount of personal info.

And with a poor-me approach while at the same time dropping hints that she herself is not blameless, but is totally unaware of her own role.

Re: Feeling devastated tonight

well..it really doesn't hurt me at all to offer an ear to someone who is here with a sad story to tell, whether it's true or not. And we don't really know, do we?

I get tired of hearing that those of us who aren't instantly cynical, are being taken for a ride.

How is this hurting me???

I'll answer that for me...not a bit.

the poster said that they're a regular poster that was too embarrassed to post under their real user name.

"I can assure you I am a real poster - embarrassed to admit my ds feels this way under my other name."

anyway, happy holidays to all!

Not so sure it has to do with being embarrassed. If the OP was banned and posts her former name the webmaster will block her again.

And if the OP has two board names s/he will be banned for violating standards.

Happy holidays to you too.

Interesting post #159. Maybe OP is a regular not banned poster.

If that is truly the case, then she is in violation of the community standards just the same.

I find the story to be disingenuous, her claiming his blow-up came out of the blue and she doesn't understand, yet goes on to say what she's done and obviously that is what caused the blow-up!

Re: Feeling devastated tonight

So he ripped your heart out, but you coddled him all of his life.

Why are you surprised?

Since he doesn't want to hear from you, leave him alone until he decides to contact you.

Stop meddling.

Re: Feeling devastated tonight

Claims that she does not understand what caused her son to tell her to get out of his life and yet she admits that she has been calling his girl friend to "work out issues" and when the girl friend told her son about the calls he blew up. She then called the girl friend to complain about the gf telling her son about the calls she has been making. She does not deny calling the gf some pretty awful names. Sorry she sounds like a controlling, vindictive person who is trying to control her son's life. maybe the reason her husband doesn't "have her back" is because he disapproves of her actions.
