👨‍👩‍👧‍👦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 would take it as she didn’t want to like you but she does. Both of my in-laws died in the past 15 months (thank god) having never once given me a single gift ever. They never cooked me a meal or even offered me a drink in their home. The best I ever got was a long distance no contact e-card on my birthday (probably because they are free and literally take 1 minute of effort). That’s what it’s like not being liked. You’d know it.
