Feeling frustrated and sad
Sometimes I feel like I don’t matter. Take for instance my relationship with the monster in law... I give her two thirds of my disposable income each fortnight, yet she says I need to pay more and treats me like dirt. She says horrible things behind my back about me... I’ve caught her out a number of times. She doesn’t want me or the Mrs to get jobs, yet we simply don’t earn enough on the pension to meet her needs. Between my Mrs and I, we pay $900 per fortnight board... apparently it’s not enough! She makes me feel really awful because I have health insurance to pay each fortnight. She also wants us to save money but it’s impossible paying so high amounts to her. I realise we can get our own home to rent close by for that, but the second we suggest moving to our own place, she has a crying fit and threatens to harm herself.
We also have zero intimacy at home because the MIL won’t let us close our bedroom door. We’re forty, not fourteen! We literally have to plan to stay in a motel just to be intimate with my wife. I’m over her childish antics! 😖😩😢
