I've been holding a lot of stuff back because I do not want to disrespect my fiance's mother, however, there comes a point in time where enough is just enough. I think that I have reached that point, so here is a little letter to you.

I guess you weren't ready for your son to move on and love another woman unconditionally and create his own family. Unfortunately, we all have to let things go. I have tried a million times to forgive and forget because they say sometimes that is the best thing to do, however, I just don't think I can find it in my heart to do that. Here is why;

Every time I go to forgive you, you apologize, and tell me that it will not happen again, and yet it happens again. I told myself after each time that I would never allow myself to forgive you again for what you did, but there I go, forgiving you. This time, this time is different.

I'm not quite sure why you always find it in you to start unnecessary drama, but you do. But why? Could it be that you're jealous because your son isn't giving you his undivided attention anymore? Or because you want him all to yourself so you will find any way possible to try and destroy me and his relationship? Well I'm just here to tell you that it won't work whatever you're doing. Luckily, your son loves me to no end, and will do anything in his power to protect our relationship. Even if it comes down to cutting you out of his life. Why? Because he now has a family of his own in which is his number one priority. He does not have time for petty drama because he always works nonstop and is spending time with his new, little family. Which by the way, I will forever be grateful for that.

Your son sticks up for me in any situation that we may cross together because he is my best friend and my other half and that's what we do for each other. We have each others back through thick and thin. It is not right for you to manipulate him with tears and anger when I do not. Because I love him, and I wish that I loved you.

When it comes to our child, you disrespect our wishes rather than just listening to them. If you haven't noticed, that is a big problem in mine and yours relationship. Something as easy as respecting a mothers wishes, and you can not seem to accomplish that. I understand you may have raised your children differently, but since when have parents all used the same parenting techniques? Also, since when were you the MOTHER of my child? Never. Therefore, please do respect our wishes. I do not need advice from you, because I know how to parent.

I wish all it was, was you disrespecting my wishes, but unfortunately, it isn't. Why must my name always come out of your mouth in a negative way? What have I done to you other than put you in your place when needed to be? I make your son happy. We gave you a grandchild. But you still don't like me for some reason? Again, is it because you don't want your son happy? Or because you want him all to yourself? Now, how do you expect him to be happy in life if he can't get out from under your shelter? One thing he has told me is that he is glad he is out of that household.

When you have done something wrong so bad as trying to attack your son's soon to be wife, do not think that we can just forgive you by you buying gifts and food. You can not take back the actions you have made and the words you have said. Again, he stuck up for me and defended me before his own mother. Does that tell you something?

I love your son, and he loves me. We will always love each other. I do not have to ever prove my love to him for you. There are other ways I show my love to him rather than making sure his laundry is done, has lunch for work and he is coming home to a home cooked meal. I listen to his problems, I smile at him, I ask him how his day was, and I always tell him something I admire about him. Yes, we have our differences, but it's definitely not accusing him of sleeping with other women, nor lying to me.

If you ever wanted a relationship between me and you to work, I ask that you not run your mouth about your son's soon to be wife, and that you respect our wishes when it comes to our child. Also, do not throw out there that we don't come to see you anymore. We have our own little family now in which we are trying to make memories with together. Not to mention, I don't know many people who enjoy being around someone who only nags and complains 99.9% of the time.

I'm sure you get the hint? At least I hope.
