They say that when you marry someone, you marry their entire family. There’s a lot of truth in that. But unlike the first part of this saying, the latter one is not really up to you. So yeah, you may as well end up with a white elephant in a bag.

This story from a 34-year-old woman who said ‘I do’ a year ago gives a glimpse into what it is like to have a mother in law that gets on your nerves. “My husband and I purchased a new house recently. My MIL kept pushing to get an emergency key, she promised that she would only use it in an emergency,” she wrote in a post on r/AITA. But it turned out, the author’s mother-in-law is really nosey and she already walked in on them twice, so there was little chance she wouldn’t do it again.

So unbeknownst to her, the MIL got a fake copy to their house. And her snoopy deeds came to light at a Christmas dinner which ended in one hell of a tantrum and one more family drama to go in the books.

A woman shared how she gave a fake key copy of her new house to her MIL who didn’t keep the promise to use it only in emergency
