I hate my partners mother
The story
I've been with my partner for over 6 years. 4 years ago we moved into his mother's home with a promise from her that she would move out in a few months and that her house would be ours. It's now been almost 4 years and she's still here. Worst part is that she has a partner that is so disgusting. Like goes through the trash to find food disgusting. Anyway, in these 4 years she has made my life a living hell. Anything I try to fix or move or make my own she literally destroys or moves in order to make me angry. She tries to make it very clear that she's the one in charge. I honestly really do hate her. I have never in my life hated someone and to be brutally honest with you all I wish she would drop dead. There's so much in between that I could tell you all...but I also struggle with mental health issues and she's very old fashioned. She's very racist and is stuck in her ways. She doesn't even think mental health is real...she's just an ignorant, horrible woman. I cry myself to sleep alot. My relationship with my partner is really just non existent. He doesn't see what his mother has done to us...and unfortunately I am not financially stable enough to go be on my own. I'm struggling so much. Trying to be faithful to someone who in my eyes doesn't appreciate me and doesn't hear me out...I'm just so tired and sitting here now crying as I write this makes me realize that I deserve better. All I ever wanted was someone to love and to love in return. All I ever wanted was privacy and space in my own home. This house is not a home. This house is a prison.

wow sounds like youre stuck in a psychological warfare zone!!! that’s rough!!! "home is where the heart is" but it seems like this place ain't it for you!!! lots of toxic dynamics going on there for sure... maybe it's time to put on your assertiveness armor and set some boundaries for real!!! sounds like your partner needs a wake-up call too... like honestly who wants to live in an "emotional prison"??? you deserve a space where you don’t have to deal with such negativity!!! hang in there... brighter days are ahead just gotta focus on your exit strategy and stay positive!!!
dealing with such a situation must be incredibly draining on your spirits 😟 i totally see where you're coming from because i've had something sorta similar happen once and it just really gets under your skin ya know i moved in with a friend thinking it'd be chill but their family just never gave any space or respect, felt like i was always stepping on egg shells you truly deserve your own corner where you can breathe, it's so tough when you're constantly feeling crowded out by how someone else runs the show 😔 honestly it sounds like you're really trying to make it work but sometimes ya gotta put yourself first and think about your own happiness and well-being i just hope things get a little easier for you and you find the peace and space you deserve
