Weddingbee boards

Since day one basically i could tell what my fiance's mother was truly like and she has failed to disprove my theory so far.. We are planning our wedding for october next year and we are looking to buy a place before hand to live together. She is very snobby in every sense.. we want to buy a place in an area we can afford and that we are happy to raise a family in but all the mother in law does is complain about how far away it is (it's only a 30 minute drive from her house) and i think she just snobs off the area because its not close to the city like she is. She's never even been there before but she is always so quick to judge. It's the same with where weve booked the wedding reception.. immediately before she even found out anything about it she has to say something negative and say we should have it somewhere else.. Where we are looking to buy just happens to be close to my family.. not intentionally but purely because its affordable so future MIL makes passing comments about how convenient it is for my parents if we live close by to them.. she acts like its a competition but i know its all just insecurities on her end. Her partner recently left her and she is super reliant on both her sons so by us living a 30 minute drive away i think she thinks were just going to abandon her or something..she has plenty of friends and we would make the time to go and visit but she is such a snob and she is so interfering with her opinions on our future plans I cannot stand her!!!

@KatNYC2011:  Trust me when I say she is snobby its not my imagination cuz the FI even agrees. She wants us to live close to her but its out of our price range and she suggests all these expensive places we should live that are even further away from where i live now so its not even about the proximity she just wants us to live somewhere that "sounds good" when she talks to people about us.

My FI and his brother are her 2 sons. Her other son still lives at home with her so she's not by herself she just wants the control of having us live close by so that she can call on us to do stuff for her whenever she needs us.. 

i am polite to her i always have been as ive been raised to treat people the way you would like to be treated but she has always made me feel like i never measure up to her standards.. i dont know if shes excited bout us getting married or just excited about the fact she can go around telling people her son is having a wedding.. big difference between the two.. if u knew her u would know what i mean.. we will make sure to see her when we move out and she knows that but yet still nothing is ever good enough to please her i just dread having to deal with her crap for years to come

Thanks for all the feedback girls Iguess Ijust have to accept that's how she is and she's not going to change. We will just do what we want and live where we want she's the only one with The problem so she can deal with it  :)
