"I do not want to live with mother in law"
-----
After five years of dating, we talked about getting married.
In the end, they broke up because of a non-existent key.
My boyfriend and I made additional deposits, and the down payment was enough.
We looked at many first-hand and second-hand properties together and were looking forward to our home.
I do not know, how did his mother find out, and did not know she know it from where,
She search for properties online by herself and she had even schedule an appointment with an agent to view my house!
She sven called us to "give advice":
"The house you choose is not a good house for you. The house that I looked is much more better than the house that you had chosen. I had even help you check out the layout of this place. It is close to the market. It would be more convenient for me to come over later to help you buy food and cook rice."
"The door to the bathroom in the master bedroom needs to be redirected. The Feng Shui master said it would be bad for the male's career."
"You young people don't know anything. Let me help you find a master for decoration. I know what materials are good to use."
I tolerated all these and think that maybe she us too kind... She acted as a warm-hearted elder.
What excites or even provoke me the most is,
She finally said in a "joking" tone:
"Hey, when you buy any building in the future, you must have to to give me a key. I can come over and help you clean when I am getting bored. It is already so hard for you to work in the job."
She had even turned around and told my boyfriend again:
"You are going to get a wife in the future. Mom will be so bored. You have to come back to see me often!"
My face fell instantly!
The boyfriend said afterwards:
"My mom is just joking, do you need to take it so serious? Isn't it much more better if she comes over to help us clean up?"
Not good! Super bad!
What I want is "our home",
It is not an extended version of "Your Home"!
I had even declared it clearly and directly:
I do not really accept that your dad and your mom have the keys to our house after we get married, and suddenly sneak in house or suddenly visit and suddenly come here whenever they want!
He actually replied to me:
"That's my mother. Do you ask me to argue with her?"
I think about, the next few decades,
The sofa I bought, the curtains I chose, the way I lay in the living room,
to be judged by another woman;
When I came home from working overtime at night, I was told that I am not a good daughter in law ;
Thinking about if I had really born my kids, she would intervene on how I educate my kids and she would judge me and take full interference in my parenting style...
I broke up.
After five years of relationship, I lost a key that has not yet been unlocked.
But I do not regret anything!
I just want to tell his mother:
"Auntie, your precious son, I will give you back.
Please keep your (mother and son) relationship together happily forever and do not let your son out to harm other females!"
