Clashes with in-laws are not uncommon. However, one Reddit user shares a jaw-dropping story about a persistent mother-in-law who seems determined to erase OP’s identity and sabotage their relationship. Brace yourself for an enthralling narrative filled with mistaken names, hidden motives, and a Thanksgiving gathering that takes an unexpected turn.
Three years ago, OP (30f) entered into a relationship with her boyfriend (30m), following his breakup with his high school sweetheart. Despite the passage of time, the boyfriend’s mother remained heartbroken over the previous relationship. Hoping to foster a connection, OP displayed understanding and patience, assuming that his mother needed time to accept the new dynamic. However, the mother’s behavior took an unsettling turn when she repeatedly called OP by the ex’s name.
Initially, OP’s boyfriend intervened, admonishing his mother and urging her to be respectful. His mother dismissed it as a mere habit and proceeded to substitute another incorrect name, seemingly reveling in the discomfort it caused. Though OP corrected her at first, she eventually decided to ignore it, suspecting that his mother derived pleasure from hurting her.
