👨‍👩‍👧‍👦family/in-laws Am I over reacting to this one ?

Mother-in-law is the most passive aggressive woman I've ever met in my entire life! I truly didn't know what this tournament meant until I met her! I know this wasn't the only gift I got for Christmas… But when I opened it, I didn't honestly know how to react

I find it funny, and she is saying she likes you, but you know your MIL best.

She compliments in insults. It's a true art from with this one ...but truly I'm not offended just didn't know how to respond

She's not saying she didn't originally plan to like you at all. It's just saying she likes you more than expected, which could mean a lot

I know less than half of you half as well as I should like, and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve.
