hello everyone im martha and right now i guess im venting more than anything and i dont know what to do. do to me and my husbands financial situation i have been forced to move in with my inlaws and have been living with them for 3yrs now.(long time i know)
So i have an issue with how they want me to act, they are very talkative people and gossip alot. my mother in law is like 54 and spends all day on facebook stalking everyone. well they get mad at me because im a quiet person and i dont like to judge others like they do. i guess i see the good in people and i am optimistic. well they also take advantage of my quietness and niceness and make mean comments towards me and i just dont know what to do i usually just stay quiet and tell myself "be the better person" ok so right now i was crying so much because i spent quite a few hours playing outside with my sister in law whom is autistic and may i add im the only one who plays with her...anyway when we came inside she was a bit dirty so she wanted me to help her take a shower (shes 9) and so i told her to ask her mom(my mother in law) if it was ok and she said it was so i helped her take a shower and scrubbed her hair quite a bit cause she had been sweaty I SHAMPOOED HER HAIR TWICE before rinsing it...this whole time my sister in law had been having a fit because she didnt like the clothes her mom picked out for her...so she can kind of taking it out on me and i guess thats from the autism so its fine. what got me so upset was that after she got out of the shower my mother in law came in and smelled her hair and acted like if it was the worst smelling thing in the world!! she made her get back in the shower and shampooed her hair again and when she did it she did it all fast (i did it for longer and did it twice!) and after she was done she kind of kicked me out of her room. before i got out i told her what i had done and i told her how my sister in law had been having a fit since before we started the shower due to the clothes she didnt like. well my mother in law didnt seem to believe me and i just came in my room and started crying because i felt like she insulted me in a way on purpose. like if whatever i do is not good enough for her. so i just need support on this i guess if you all have had similar situations or advice i would like to hear it please i really just need a friend since i am in a city where i dont know anyone and have lost contact with most of my friends. thank you if you read all of this :)

It is not your fault that things are happening as they are and it is clear to me that your are just trying to help.
I think you should be proud of holding up this long and, when possible, look at an exit plan.
