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.

    Good effing grief! Why are some parents like that and why the hell do their offspring let them get away with it? Weird af! Honestly, if your partner isn't putting you first then you have a problem. The only people who should come before a husband/wife are their children.

    When a mother walks in on you being intimate and you (he) don't think it's a big deal then that's already a red flag. He's a mamma's boy and the MIL is controlling and had the tantrum to manipulate the family into taking her side. Him wanting your phone is what his mother would want to do ... it's all about control.

    Sounds like the OP's husband needs to get married to his mother. I'll never understand this weird, unhealthy relationship that so many mothers seem to have with their sons. Like their son's partner is somehow 'intruding' on their relationship. The OP should seriously rethink her relationship with her husband given his behaviour. He will ALWAYS take his mother's side over his wife's, and it doesn't sound like he respects her at all. Her feelings aren't important to him.
