Buddy up with her.

Smile a lot-- A lot. You can get away with almost anything if it's delivered in good humour.

Always come ready with juicy stories about other people. Eziokwu the easiest way to an elderly woman's heart in this Naija is through gossip (good natured gossip

)

I beg to disagree. Rigidity seldom ameloriates issues.
@OP, God bless you

You can disagree all you want.

If you think it's wise to follow certain rules to get people to like you, then goodluck with that, I don't believe in such.

Life shouldn't be that complex.

All I know is that, I don't go about looking to annoy or offend people, therefore I won't walk on eggshells for anyone.

I don't see what rigidity has to do with my post.

Is it in a world where my mum is busy chatting with her daughter-in-law to be on whatsapp, that I would start taking down this list in preparation for my own mother-in-law? Naaaaa...

For a mother-in-law, God will give me a woman who would treat me like my mum treats her soon-to-be daughter-in-law. He knows I don't have the body for difficult or fastidious people.

If only you knew the kind of love and respect men have for their moms you would not be saying this.....if you only knew.

And daughters dont love their moms too?

Abegi, no need for women to win or fight to win anyone over. Live with your MIL as you will live with your hubby. Its normal expectation for everyone to be nice and respectful so no need to even mention that one. If she has sense she too will know that you are someones daughter and you are loved by your own family too. She the MIL should also work to make her DIL feel at home in her new family.
Yes at first a MIL may be jealous of her DIL but a right thinking mother will not stress another womans child.
Women, be responsible and respectful to your DIL and leave the rest to her. No need to fly to the moon and back in order to make her accept you. What the hell, you should have sought acceptance before the wedding anyhoe. Why the medicine after death?
Maybe MILs should be trained on how to help their DILs settle down comfortably in tgeir new homes.
Eh, as for those women that lack home training and are quick to abuse and insult their DILs and work day abd night to turn the faces of sons from their parents, Karma is a biatch.

LOL,

When you marry her son, she automatically your Mother in-law.

If you don't like her stay away from her son-shikena

You forget wives can be divorced, but mothers can't be rejected.

All these just to be accepted? Story.

Whatever happened to being one's self, Abegi.

that's why girls like you don't last long in relationships talk less of getting married, you can't follow this simple steps to enjoy your Marriage but you can climb 100steps just to sleep with that Alhaji

Smtyms being urself may not please ur ML, if u truly love ur man and ur home, apply those things the op said.

Smtyms they may even come naturally to u.

BTW, the guy above me is totally correct, u wont last long in ur marriage if u don't take simple advice. Your mother-in-law can make ur marriage hell for u.

Be wise

Re: 23 Ways To Win Over Your Mother-in-law by Berniceakin: 7:47am On Jul 11, 2015

with all these, I guess understanding our MILs should be included in school curriculum, lol.
Anyways, I've always prayed to have a MIL, just love them, and I'm sure I'm going to have an amazing one because her son is. Amen

Re: 23 Ways To Win Over Your Mother-in-law by Nobody: 8:28am On Jul 11, 2015

This is really scary.... Have only met her twice and she spills hot and cold, I am totally confused, don't know if she will like me or not but boo is reassuring. #Ruthmoodactivated

Easy tigress!! grin

I didn't mean it like that tho.... the OP's tips was kinda strict but my question is if your mother inlaw happens to be a real life viola fields? Will you just tell her to go f**k herself or will you do a few of the tips in this post just to make things right?
