We all know that if you have a MIL, then you know that it can be kind of hard to get along with them at times. It's undoubtedly one of the most difficult relationships to both maintain and form for people.

It's just a common thing that so many people talk about, so much so that there is a Reddit thread named Just No MIL where people come to talk about all their crazy MILs and what they do. In this case, we are looking at a post that was submitted here by a woman who has had a very rocky relationship with her MIL.

It started straining her marriage, so they decided to go to therapy, and the therapist actually agreed with OP and told her husband that he should tell his MIL to apologize. It's always interesting when someone is on your side, especially after you've been in limbo of arguing about it with everyone.

So she came to Reddit to explain the situation, and it seems like everyone agreed with OP and the therapist because the husband's mom is definitely the issue here, and it's one of those things where it was validation for her. So if you're interested in hearing the full situation and seeing the best comments on the post, then keep on reading as we dive into all the details.

OP starts off talking about how they go to counseling and what she's tried to do to fix this but then also goes into details about what her MIL did and said.

She gave us all angles and told us what she did and what she decided to tell her husband and his mom after all of this. She's NC now.

So many people came to the comments and were on OP's side after hearing everything she went through with her MIL.

This is a huge thing we noticed, too, because everyone else clearly just put up with her and OP will not do that which is an even better trait to have.

Everyone pretty much told OP that her husband here is in the wrong and that she was in the right to drop her MIL for everything that she did.

OP responded to a few comments and let people know what she thought about this and how she responded to the situation initially when it came to her MIL.

It's definitely true that her husband needs to step up to his MIL because clearly she is the issue and he is the issue for not standing up for his wife against his mother.

Again this is something that so many people focused on and it's definitely true because everyone else clearly just up tup with her.

He won't ever probably be able to see the issue clearly but that's just something he's going to have to discuss with his therapist honestly.

We're glad that they are choosing to go to therapy and try to work things out because they definitely need a mediator here, and an outside opinion is quite necessary to get him to see his mom's actions for what they are. We are hoping that they can solve this and things get a little better here.
