Already, things were off to a bad start, but she and her fiancé came up with a plan for how to best deal with her mother-in-law.
“Later we decided to prank her, which I get is insecure, but it’s stress relief when I’m stuck on a trip with her,” she explained.
“Tom showed me what she was wearing to dinner and I went back to the boutique and got the same outfit. The prank went wonderful, she was pissed.”
Her mother-in-law does surprisingly have a sense of humor even though she is super rude, and Tom really thought it would be funny, so that’s why she went through with the prank in the first place.
Tom turned to her mother-in-law and called her fat, and she hit the roof.
“I’m a size 10-12 depending on the brand,” she continued. “It is something I have struggled with my whole life and I know I am not fat, but I’m also never going to be stick thin either.”
“I already felt a tiny bit uncomfortable in the outfit, and I am just so sick of his gross judgmental attitude.”
“He wants some fake dream girl who eats burgers and fries all the time and is a size 4 and he looks down on real women for not being that.”
She went right to her grandfather-in-law’s wife to fill her in on Tom calling her fat, and her grandfather-in-law’s wife agreed Tom had to go.
Her grandfather-in-law’s wife officially kicked Tom off the trip, and then her mother-in-law freaked out and pitched a fit.
Her mother-in-law and Tom did end up leaving the family vacation, but there’s a ton of drama left in their wake.
