But thank you!! It's so refreshing that someone actually understands my biggest fear when my husband comes home. We've only been married for 7 months so far, never got a honeymooon, and have only spent 52 days together. I have another 5-6 months to go before I get to have that happily ever after I've been waiting for so long and the LAST thing I want is for her to be there too! Would if be rude of me to send her your articles? I'm refusing to tell her when he comes home, and I'm hoping his FRG unit doesn't tell her (since she actally lives in his unit's home town). But at least, thanks to you, I can justify my stance!! Thanks so much! OK, so I’m a little late here. But thank you!!

I can totally relate.. My MIL is a psycho!! I think it so much harder for us women who are married to men in the service, it gives their mothers even more ample opportunity to be crazy!! I was starting to feel I was the only unfortunate one... LOL Its nice to know other people can relate... My husband and I are newlyweds... I have a lot to look forward too..lol Thank you so much!!

My spouse isin the Army and has been disrespecting me about me weight gain, verbal abuse and he has been contacting women on the internet. He states that he doesn't know me anymore. I have been through alot, I had surgery to remove a tumor and my body is not the same, it's been hard. I am not working right now and his family and him are causing pressure for me to find a job. I feel like giving up .

I loved it! My MIL has been driving me crazy!! She's somewhere between the Mother of All Mothers and the Possessive Mother depending on what you're talking about. She insists on not only being here when my DH returns home, but also a month later when I give birth (IN THE DELIVERY ROOM!!!!!). All this, but she couldn't bother to email her son a happy birthday while he's deployed. Psycho. lol Thanks for the laugh! Alaina Thank you so much for the column. I loved it!
