My MIL that is!!! :livid OMGosh...this is probably going to be long and SUPER ranty sooo if you are gonna read be prepared....
Well she always has been a b!tch to Rob but it's gotten worse since his dad died in January. She's the type of mother that has favorites and Rob has NOT been one of her favorites EVER. She is also very dramatic and constantly wants attention 24/7.
So the latest thing started last Friday. She calls(which she NEVER calls us, I can count on 1 hand in 10 years how many times she has called here) and tells me she doesn't want us to worry but something was going on with her and she blacked out and wrecked her car the day before. Then that day, she blacked out again when her friend was taking her to run errands, she's "just so scared and worried what's going on" and since Rob's one brother is in Iraq and she can't get ahold of the other brother...."I guess I'll have to just talk to Rob about it." Oh yea...nice way to make him feel like crap.
Anyway, I tell her she should have a friend come over take her to the hospital or at least sit with her at the house so Max(our nephew whom she has custody of) wouldn't be alone if something happened. "Oh NO!! I'm fine I just want Rob to call me when he gets home so I can tell him all about it"....:blahblahblah So I figure she is just being really dramatic but call Rob anyway so he knows and can call her. He calls and calls and calls and she won't answer....She has caller id and screens her calls so you have to talk into the machine before she will pick up so she knows he's calling...just like she wanted but she won't pick up. So he starts getting really worried(probably just what she wanted) and calls her friend that we have a number for and asks her to head over...Oh she's fine...she just didn't want to pick up the phone...NICE!!
Well she ends up going to the ER either later that night or next morning and they think she either had mini strokes or some sort of seizure(need to do more tests)...not sure because when Rob calls to see how she is the next day, she YELLS at him for BUGGING her..."everything is fine...I'm fine so quit calling!!" :headshake...BITCH!! So he decides he's not going to bother with her for a few days...she calls again this past Saturday and proceeds to give him a hard time about not caring about her, and how hard it is for her since his dad died, and his brother being in Iraq...uh..yea the same things that are HARD for Rob to deal with too, duh!! Then she proceeds to tell him all about his brother's wife(she's only met her 1 time, we have never met her) and how she is "the best daughter in law". :lmao and how she wishes they would give her "a grandbaby, because that baby would be the best thing." HOLY SHIT!! I thought Rob was gonna jump through the phone and knock her out!! It hurts that she treats him badly but it REALLY hurts him that she doesn't really treat Shelby all that great either...she isn't mean to her or anything but she's basically nothing unless she is around...no gifts, no cards, no phone calls, MIL doesn't even have a picture of Shelby hanging on her walls at home.
So today, we hear through the grapevine that she actually told someone she wrecked her car because she had been talking to Rob and he made her so mad and upset about something, she lost control of the car and wrecked!! WTH?? Can you believe that?? What kind of mother does that??? UGH!! He called her to let her know that what's being said is getting back to him, but she of course denied it!! :sigh
OMGosh...I feel so bad for Rob. I can really tell this is all hurting him so much. I think he is finally to the point that he's done with her but it's still hard for him.
