My mother-in-law’s involvement with the church has made things awkward.
The cause is her deep involvement with her church, indoctrinating our toddler with her religious beliefs and, finally, her deep physical attraction to her priest. She believes this last topic is acceptable to confide to me. Needless to say, it has made me very uncomfortable, and I have begun avoiding her.My husband, thankfully, understands my position. We both have spoken to his mother several times, to no avail.
I have expressed my unease to my husband and asked if we could have two separate hotel rooms. He was very upset at my suggestion and said it will cost him more to arrange two rooms. He now wants to cancel the trip due to my “selfishness.”: Because your husband feels he cannot afford to pay for completely separate accommodations, tell him you will agree to his plan with certain ground rules in place.
