That's just the way Ma-in-lwas are! They can even make us think that they love us, but deep down they still think that we are not good for their sons. Love Huey Lewis' lyric!

I did what Hope said and was "just myself".

I hope we are able to build on this. Ma-in-law and I had a nice talk last night.

But I’m sure you can figure out a way to win her over, or at least find a way to get along.

I think we all have stories about it. Good and bad. Do your best, just know that we are all the same. I felt inadequate more than once too. Ah, family… I think we all have stories about it.

Try as in try to impress her, or try to get her goat. Stop trying so hard. Be yourself. And if she doesn't like you, that's her loss. Hugs to a super person who has more friends than the entire population of her town!! i feel like the harder you try with a mother-in-law, the worse it gets.
