My MIL surprised us by coming up tonight. It's great to see her. But I wasn't expecting her. So I did a "quick-clean" of the living room, kitchen and bathroom. I closed the door to our bedroom figuring "well, of course she'd never open our bedroom door".
I was wrong.
I came home to find MIL here alone (FI went to run errands). I immediately went into the bedroom. It was spotless (ie: NOT how I left it this morning). MIL made our bed and picked up laundry from the floor.
Well that's all fine and dandy except for that FI and I didn't just have sex last night. We had sex last night. My bachelorette party is this weekend, so I made a trip to the sex shop for some cute goodies. I also bought a few surprises for FI and I. One of which was a much too large, veiny, hot pink and glitter vibrator.
O-M-F-G.
Did she see it? Where did I leave it? omgomgomgomg. WHY DID SHE GO INTO OUR BEDROOM?!?!?!? The door was shut for a reason!!!!!!!!!! I'm so upset that she went into our room when we weren't home.
Oh my gosh that is awful!! I'm so sorry!! I have no idea what to say, except that you are absolutely right - why did she go into your bedroom?? Everyone knows that the bedrooms are a private place and that there is zero reason to ever venture into someone else's bedroom while you are visiting their home, especially without even asking. Did she act weird toward you guys after???
oh. my. goodness. that is upsetting. I'm so sorry! Shouldn't have done that! Maybe if she did see some of the goodies, that will keep her out in the future....
omg, that is hilarious! I mean, sorry.
OK. Here's what I'm wondering. If it really looked like a sex hurricane had come through your bedroom...wouldn't she have walked in, turned around, and left? Do you think she found your ginormous vibrator and "put it away"?
This is very embarassing. It's also insane that she went into your room while you were gone!!!!
No, she's not acting strange. I guess I don't care about being embarrassed as much as I'm angry that she'd open the closed door to our bedroom when we're not home. The door was closed for a reason and I hate that she didn't respect that!!!!!
Well I don't know! It's embarassing because the vibrator is insanely huge, like I want her to know it doesn't fit! (ewwwww, LOL)
YOU WOULD THINK SHE'D SEE FLAVORED LUBES AND LOTIONS AND VIBRATORS AND HANDCUFFS AND WALK OUT! Why did she stick around to "clean up"!?!??!! This is so strange. I am so upset that she snuck around our BEDROOM.
OMG !!!! HA HA, SORRY I Can't help but laugh!!! Maybe that will teach her a lesson?!!
BTW-I am sorry that she violated your space to. Not cool!! Could your FI have "straightened up" before he left???
No, I snuck a talk in with FI and he said he hasn't been in the bedroom since he left for work this AM. I found Mr. Big Pink just slightly under the bed. Like an inch behind our bedskirt. I can't remember if he was there this morning or if she did a little "kick' of it under the bed. ughh.
LOL, I am currently sitting in our bedroom and FI just walked in to grab an extra pillow for his mom....all he said was "it was so veiny....." (while shaking his head) and he walked out....
OMG. Im so sorry that happened to you, I would feel so violated too! I literally laughed out loud about the big veiny pink vibrator ahahahahah
That is terrible! I cannot lie though and say I was not entertained by your post, but more because I could totally see my FMIL doing that to us! Ahhhhh... NOT ok.
Well, on one hand, I'd be totally embarassed if FMIL found toys in the bedroom. On the other hand, while I hate to think of parents doing anything like this, I figure anything I would do my parents might have done (or still do). Okay, that was too much thinking about that. But, parents should want you to have a healthy sex life, and there's nothing wrong with toys. The fact that she saw it just provides a little empirical evidence for what she could have imagined if she wanted to.
Keep in mind she was being really nice by cleaning your house for you.
I'd be really mad too! What kind of person wants to hang around in someone else's bedroom? I know I don't! And what kind of woman wants to hang around her grown son's bedroom? WEIRD. If she is at all freaked out by all your paraphernalia then it totally serves her right for invading your private space like that. Next time she comes over see what other weird stuff you can leave around to freak her out :)
I just told my FH this story - and he responded that if his mom EVER walked into our closed bedroom and "tidied it up" she would be informed she is no longer allowed to visit!
@Miss Mini, well you're lucky! My FI is embarrassed, but we both aren't going to say a thing to her. I wish I could aks her nicely to never go into our bedroom ever again. Even if my bedroom is spotless, I don't want her in there. It's our private space.
omg hilarious. i'm sorry though, that does suck. i'd be mortified! at least she's not being weird...?
Oh my gosh VirginiaMarie I'm getting so upset just thinking about this. I would be causing WWIII right now with the MIL. Most would agree that I'm pretty laid back and pick my battles. I don't like to create a fuss most of the time, but if this happened to me, I'd probably lose it. That is such an invasion of privacy. Not acceptable at all. Oh dear. I hope it never happens again to you and I hope it NEVER happens to me...lol
I feel SO BAD FOR LAUGHING OMG.
I'd be humiliated girl. Seriously, I wonder what she thinks about her precious baby boy playing around with a veiny pink vibrator?
LOL I'M SORRY.
LOL, I don't even know what to say, but OMG. Sorry, that must have been horrifying. Sorry, but I can't help but giggle. But OMG!
I think you need a locking door w/ a separate key. But maybe it's like that SATC episode where Charlottes MIL walks in on them having sex and never comes over unannounced ever again.
Urrgghh that reminds me of when we went to Fi's parents for a weekend a while ago, and stayed in his old bedroom from HS. The next morning we left and came back later on to get our stuff after visiting family, and she had picked up the room, made the bed (nicer, it was made I swear!) and so nicely laid out a pair of pink underwear on the bed. Problem? They. Weren't. Mine. They were from an ex gf he had in H.S. Nice. I laughed, I didn't want to tell her they weren't mine, lest she think her son is less than a perfect gentlemen! I still tease him about it.
i would be mortified. but honestly my MIL is a freak shed prolly compare notes uhg talk about crazy....
i almost think i know which VIB your talking about i had a glittery pink one that had like 11 settings and was similar lmao...
i do feel horrible for the giggles but i cant imagine the feeling around her
but think of it this way...at least she knows shell get grandkids someday and that u have a healthy relationship
thought this was funny so not related though
Aghhh! This would drive me insane. Is she the type of person who'd want to snoop and make an excuse for it, like, "Oh I was just cleaning up!"? If so, serves her right if she was mortified at what she found, but still, I would bring it up and tell her it was way inappropriate. I would definitely feel violated if someone cleaned up my bedroom too. I couldn't even have a maid to clean our common spaces and bathrooms, that just freaks me out too much. My stuff is MINE. When we're on vacation, I usually deny cleaning service and just get new towels and other necessities. I remember once when we stayed in a villa in the Dominican Republic and the place was staffed with a maid, I almost had a heart attack when I walked into my room to find the maid straightening up. It would be so much worse if it was actually my real room, with ALL of my personal stuff in it.
Your story kind of reminds me of the time my FI was packing up his room at his parents' house while I was on the phone with him, and his mom went in to "help him" despite his protests...and picked up a recently used condom we'd forgotten to throw out because she didn't know what it was at first. Awkward for all of us, but maybe she won't go through his stuff again.
O good heavens! That would drive me nuts. My FMIL is very open with her sons and they always make jokes about sex..like if she calls in the morning and my FI answers and he is trying to get a little action he will say 'what mom, I am trying to get shannon to put out' and at first it was really embarassing bc I would have to look at her a few hours later bc we would be out doing family stuff. Thankfully she is super cool and doesnt think twice about it and, I think, she thinks he is kidding. I would be mortified if my FMIL just decided to clean our bedroom. That so private! And I too laughed at your 'veiny' friend but am so sorry you are having to deal with this!
This is hilarious. lol sorry. I would be completely mortified. My MIL used to drop by when I first moved in but FIL scolded her for coming by unannounced. I would definately not appreciate his mother cleaning our room. Especially since she has no idea where anything belongs. It may be a blessing if she did see it because you would think she would choose to never clean your room again.
Um, I would be super pissed that she came into my house and took it upon herself to clean.
In fact, my mom was staying with me while i was recovering from surgery and wanted to go clean our room and I said no....and she kept saying it wasn't a big deal and I told her NO she doesn't belong in our bedroom and I don't want her going through our stuff (stuff meaning....you know, adult stuff we keep around) and she was all HURT i thought she would SNOOP. It was a big ugly mess and I still don't see how she felt it was appropriate to clean her grown daughter and her husband's bedroom. In fact, she did a batch of laundry while i was at work one day and he was PISSED he came home to find his UNDERWEAR folded neatly--not by me. I had to explain to her that I wouldn't want HIS mom touching my underwear and bras. She doesn't get it--she just has Mother Brain, ya know? She's like "but you're my kid!" No...still not ok.
I just feel like that's a private space that you don't just take it upon yourself to enter.
i would've been furious!!
I trust both my MIL and mom in our house alone, but that is with the understanding that they'd never go into our room, open/shut door (whatever)... i know she was just doing the motherly thing and picking up after her kid(s), but bedroom? ... NOT okay.
I think moms have an issue with this. Unfortunately our bedroom is right off of our living room so its very easy for guests to just pop in there. My MIL doesn't see it as odd and will often just go in to use our bathrooms. But, that is how they keep their master bedroom, it is just like another living space for any guests to just venture into.
Oh, man. That sucks! I would definately say something (or your FI) to avoid this happening in the future. I would hate it if anybody came in our bedroom! Yikes!
Okay, I have a horribly embarrassing story that might make you feel a bit better. I can't believe I'm sharing this. Hahaha!
When the boy and I moved a few weeks ago, we, of course, threw out a whole bunch of old crap from our old place. Well, included in that old crap were some really old VHS porno tapes that belonged to the boy, some old, mostly empty bottles of lube and the like, and two vibrators that no longer worked. We bagged everything up and left it on the curb for the trash guys on Thursday night, as usual.
Friday morning, I came outside to see that a homeless person had gone through our trash (ah, the joys of city living). We had like 6 or 7 bags of stuff that were all ripped open and spread across the street and sidewalk. And the trash truck had just passed it by. I had to stand there and pick up piles and piles of trash by hand, as my neighbors all passed me by to go to work. I literally had to chase down a purple vibrator that was rolling down the street, and pray to god that nobody saw the VHS tape of "Hand Job Honeys" while I did it.
Sigh.
These stories are really funny ... to look back on. But in the moment? BOY I'D BE PISSED! I agree with Ms Mini - she'd get a stern ultimatum no matter what. I have never walked into their bedroom, so why would they go into mine?
But hey, it sounds like you had a fun night - maybe try to concentrate on that when the MIL anger gets too high, haha.
OMG kudos to you for getting down with your bad sexy self. What MIL did is so wrong and I hope she did see something and learned her lesson.
While we're sharing: Years ago I lived with a roomie in a bad situation and he basically emailed me to move out ASAP while I was away one weekend. I quickly found a new apt. and asked my parents to help me move. I thought I was slick throwing my bag of "goodies" into the bottom of a big trash bag filled with random kitchen stuff - tea bags, garbage bags, tupperware, etc - things that didn't need to be unpacked right away. Fast forward to moving day, Mom decides to unpack stuff into my new place while my dad and I move stuff out of the old place. I figured she would do clothes, make the bed, etc. Imagine my horror when I found everything from the KITCHEN in place. I couldn't find my goody bag though, and refused to ask her if she had seen it. Weeks later, I found it stashed wayyyyy wayyyy wayyy under my bed. Thankfully, she never mentioned it.
I would be SO embarassed and SO pissed. I don't know if FMIL has ever even been upstairs in our house.
Wow, how rude.
If it were me, I'd get even more toys and leave them out so next time she'll be embarassed and never coem back in.LOL
I think a brand new ball gag (in the pack so she'll see what's it's for,LOL) will stop her!
