My mother-in-law (MIL) tried to separate me from her son because she didn’t approve of me. On our wedding day, she pulled a stunt I couldn’t forgive, but karma soon caught up with her.
Hi everyone! I’ve got a shocking story to share that still gets me upset. My husband, Josh, and I have been together for five years, and his mother, Samantha, has always been against me due to my ordinary background.
At first, Samantha’s disapproval showed in minor ways, but it escalated when Josh proposed. She tried to ruin our romantic dinner by faking a heart attack. “Josh, it’s your mother. I need you right now!” she said. Fortunately, Josh’s sister, Megan, texted, “She’s faking it. Don’t fall for it!”
Months before the wedding were a nightmare. Samantha criticized everything and even showed up uninvited to my bridal shower, accusing me of being a gold-digger. “You’re nothing but a gold-digger!” she screamed.
On our wedding day, she interrupted our vows and splashed red paint on my dress. Josh yelled, “You’ve gone too far this time, Mom! Get out! Now!” A few weeks later, karma struck. Samantha’s charity gala was ruined by a truckload of manure, destroying her pristine garden.
After facing hefty fines and a public scandal, Samantha finally apologized. “I never meant to hurt anyone,” she said. Josh replied, “What’s best for me is to be happy with the woman I love.”
Samantha’s actions led to an intervention where she promised to change. Though skeptical, we hoped for a better future. The lesson? Don’t start a fight you can’t finish.
