I guess the main thing is even when I bit my tongue, was as nice to her as could be, she was still a complete *****. I know it hurts my husband but I'm so tired of seeing her be this way. I hate knowing she hurts him. If I'm anything it's loyal to my family and very protective. No one is allowed to hurt my family. You're from the south. You understand. We can beat on our own all we want but Lord forbid anyone else do it. When we have no contact with her we are wonderful. When she comes around my husband ends up being lashed out at by her because of me. He gets caught between me who refuses to let her push around any more and the mother that pulls the "Oh poor me, I'm divorced and am spending all your dad's alimony money to the point you and your wife might have to take me in, but I hate your wife so you need to get rid of her". You know it's bad when your own sisters, brothers and parents have disowned you for being a complete @#%^ing manipulative *****.
I guess mainly I just needed to rant to get it off my chest.

Well, by all means vent - we needed a good rant around here.
It just seems to me that you're allowing her to drive a wedge between you and your husband, which is exactly what she wants.
Don't let the terrorists win!
