She Picked Her Wedding Date To Be The Same Date As Her Future Mother-In-Law’s Best Friend So She Wouldn’t Be Able To Make It

Although I’m sure we all wish that we could get along beautifully with all of our in-laws, the reality is that just rarely happens.
One woman who is getting married soon absolutely hates her future mother-in-law, and she summarizes the relationship with her MIL as “totally volatile.”
She feels that her mother-in-law does things to make her feel less than, and she was excited when her fiancé stepped up to make some boundaries with his mom.
After her fiancé put those boundaries in place, her mother-in-law pretty much refused to speak with them aside from major holidays or family events.
Her fiancé did ask her mother-in-law to go to dinner with him to discuss the boundaries, though her mother-in-law declined the invite.
“MIL literally told him we are very different people and she doesn’t see the benefit in pretending to like me,” she explained.
“When she is around she is civil how but I can feel her judging me. She makes faces with her husband.”
“She always looks like she is trying not to laugh. She’s also someone who everything has come naturally to and she just makes me feel like s***. I don’t want to feel that way on my wedding day.”
As soon as she found out that her mother-in-law’s best friend is also getting married, she went out of her way to make sure that she chose that exact same day.

She did it knowing that her mother-in-law definitely wouldn’t come to her wedding, and her selfish plan panned out.
She never explained to her fiancé why she picked that exact wedding date, and he didn’t put two and two together.
She figured her fiancé would ultimately be ok with her decision if he found out the truth, but he told her not that long ago that he’s actually incredibly unhappy about his mom not being able to go to their wedding.
After her fiancé shared those feelings with her, she had a moment of guilt and she let him know what she did.
“He called it a huge betrayal and was very hurt,” she said. “I even called MIL and asked if she would consider coming to part of our wedding and she said no and her friend is her real family.”
“I feel awful right now but my mom and friends are all saying anyone would have done what I did.”
Do you think what she did was totally wrong, or do you think what she did was ok?
