    People do things not necessarily because of something you did or who you are, but it’s a reflection of themselves. Maybe their inlaws were hard on them and they do the same to you. Maybe they don’t like your boyfriend giving you more attention than to them. Who knows.

    My siblings’ spouses don’t like my mom and it goes both ways. At some point you have to accept that you will not have a relationship with them and to just be cordial with them when you do have to be in the same room. You don’t have to get along with everyone but just be civil is enough when you have already tried.

    I went through the same thing about two years ago. First I thought I met such a great guy that I could connect with emotionally, physically, mentally, and finally spiritually. As the weeks go by I started to get more and more annoyed by things he said and did as he continually brought up things I don’t want to change like converting to his religion and follow their practices, not to mention the baggage he had from his previous marriage as they were still in the middle of a divorce. All I could think about when I was dating him were all those annoying things and that is why we shouldn’t be together so I broke up with him. Not long after I broke up with him, I started to miss all the good things about him and started having regrets. I thought maybe we can work things out, but it wasn’t like we didn’t try while we were together. He didn’t want to get back when I asked. Then I felt really bad about myself and all the things I had done wrong too. Took me about two months of crying everyday to realize that we are better off without each other because our values will continue to be of conflict if we stayed. After this time had past then I was able to think clearly that encountering him was a lesson for me to learn and to grow and he gained some insight on himself as well. I didn’t realize my mistakes until it was over. I didn’t feel like I did anything wrong at the time we were together. Sometimes we meet people just for the lesson and we move on. Instead of regretting, learn from our mistakes so we can be our best self when we meet the person we’re meant to be with.
