Angie,
Why is your husband still your husband?
He's just treated you really badly.

Being single can be lonely, but so can an unhappy marriage. You truly need to learn to love yourself. You deserve to be treated with respect, consideration and compassion. Without all of those, all of the time, there cannot be any real love.

What a turn of events Angie! Any chance you’ll have the house locks rekeyed and hubby and his mom’s stuffed bagged up on the lawn before he gets back?! Seems extreme I know, but wow, if anyone ever deserved a new start it’s you

No, Angie should not just bag up her MIL's things and thrown them out on the lawn. Have some class and compassion. Not only is that the wrong thing to do, if their home is her official residence, it's also illegal.

The MIL is a sick woman and needs professional help. Her son and DIL can help her get it. She belongs in care or a supervised environment like a group home. She may not like it and probably won't, but often in life what a person needs is different than what they want.

I have a completely different feeling than many others, I don't feel like I should judge your and your husband's relationship over one paragraph. They may be right he sounds like a jerk. But this is a one quick paragraph, on your side of things.

I know this is not a popular post, so hold back the remarks please . My opinion is I can't judge your relation ship outta one paragraph. You need to do what you think is right. Only you know how you feel and what you want

Nobody should make any bad comments about what you've written, however differently they may think. We're all going to have different perspectives, so the OP will get a broad range of opinions and ideas to think about.
I think that's a good thing.

This is still the crises. Of MIL being the 3rd person in the marriage, to MIL's health crises, to the process of MIL being re-homed.

Maybe let the dust settle on these very big events.

The husband may become quite shattered through this & need to rebuild himself into a solid person first. With his own new boundaries towards his Mother. This may take time.

Then, re-establishing your marriage as a 2 person relationship again may take time.
