Emily’s letter:
Dear,
My mother-in-law has often claimed that I only got pregnant to marry her son. He’s wealthy and six years younger than I am. Just last week, she invited us to her 50th birthday celebration.
During the party, she looked at my 7-year-old son and announced to everyone, “Here’s my daughter-in-law and her lottery ticket!”
My husband immediately stood up and said, “Yes! And you’ll never see them again!” He didn’t speak for the rest of the dinner. About an hour later, we heard my mother-in-law scream.
When we rushed over, we found her in tears. Apparently, my husband had gone into the house, removed every photo of us—including his own childhood pictures—from their frames, and left her a note that read, “Don’t ever embarrass my family again!”
What was supposed to be a joyous celebration for her milestone birthday ended in heartbreak.
Her son, whom she loves dearly, had turned away from her in front of everyone.
The guests quietly left early, and on our way home, I could see the anger still burning in my husband’s eyes.
I won’t deny it—I was relieved and touched that he defended me so strongly. In a way, it felt like I had “won.”
But I also realize that his actions might weigh heavily on him in the future.
Now I’m torn.
Should I be the one to reach out and try to mend the relationship?
Or is it better for us to move forward without someone who treats us with such disrespect?
Yours,
Emily
