I Refuse to Support My In-Laws After My Wife’s Death, I’m Not Their Grief Hostage

25

When his first wife passed, this man thought keeping ties with her parents was the right thing to do. But what started as compassion soon turned into endless demands and guilt-trips. Now remarried and expecting twins, he faces a shocking move from his ex-MIL that pushed him to the edge.

A desperate man turned to Reddit to vent about his complicated life situation.

The man , “I (M, 41) lost my wife, who was 7 months pregnant with my son, when I was 35. I have kept in touch with her parents through the years, despite them being difficult, as I always thought that the pain they have gone through cannot be easy. They didn’t like when I started dating, which I understood, they claimed parts of the inheritance that were legally mine, and I just let them have it, as I wasn’t with my wife for the money (I gave up something in the vicinity of USD 80k), and during the first years I had to fight their desire to control my every move.

They were constantly checking on my whereabouts, would expect me to console them every time they were sad, and wanted me to keep them informed about any plans I would have… which I don’t even do with my own parents.”

The OP’s ex in-laws crossed every possible border and the man was sincerely fed up.

The OP shared, “I got married 3 years ago, and now we are expecting twins, 2 boys! My former mother-in-law sends me WhatsApp messages and greetings around 3 times per week, so, in one of these occasions, I told her we were expecting.
