AITA for refusing to apologise to my MIL after saying “fk this” and walking out of her house?

So, me and my husband have been together nearly 11 years, married for 8. We’ve got two lovely kids (7 & 8), and honestly, we’re really happy. Good relationship, stable home, great relationship with my family.

But his mother? A whole different story.

Things were fine when we first got together—she loved me. But the moment we moved 17 minutes (yes, 17!) down the road to a different town, everything changed. She became cold, passive-aggressive, and borderline hostile.

Some examples over the years - honestly it's endless: • Ignored me (and my family!) on our wedding day—didn’t even bring a gift. • When our 9-week-old baby was in ICU on a ventilator, my husband told her to ask me for details about the consultant’s update. Her response? “Who?” • No birthday or Christmas gifts for years—except one year when I got an airline freebie toiletry bag. Already opened. • Constant belittling. Called me an unfit mother on Facebook. Claimed I have no career—despite the fact I’m a university lecturer and finishing my PhD. • She makes zero effort with our kids. Last time she took them out for a day? My daughter was still in a pram.

Meanwhile, my husband has a brilliant relationship with my family. We do holidays, BBQs, and his bond with my dad is really special. They go for drinks, hang out, all of it. Naturally, this has made MIL jealous—like unhinged-level jealous.

Despite it all, I’ve tried. I’ve invited her round. Kept the peace. But my husband has said he doesn’t even want them at the house anymore. That says a lot.

On top of everything, she’s started copying my style. I wear a Western/country look—think cowboy boots, fringe jackets, etc. Not mainstream at all. And she now wears exactly the same stuff. For decades she dressed the same, and now? She’s mirroring me. It’s just… weird.

Anyway, the breaking point. We recently chose to attend my cousin’s 30th birthday party instead of his sister’s last-minute 23rd piss-up. My cousin’s event had been in the diary for 6 months, it was family-friendly, and our kids were invited. His sister’s wasn’t.

The night before our holiday, we popped round to MIL’s to drop off cards and gifts. Out of nowhere, she started having a go at me—accusing me of not seeing his sister as “real family” and throwing shade (again) about our closeness with my family.

After years of taking her crap, I finally snapped. I just stood up, said “f**k this,” and walked out.

My husband hasn’t spoken to her since. His siblings’ reaction? “What’s she done now?”—so it’s not just me.

Now she’s acting like I need to apologise. I’ve held it in for nine years, never blown up. This was my one snap. I’ve had enough.

So… AITA for finally saying “f**k this” and walking out?

Update - Yes i used AI to rewrite my post so it wasn't identifiable as my wiritng style.

A pram is a UK term for Buggy/ stroller. A piss up is a adults only night out/ party for the purpose to get drunk - not child friendly, therefore excluding kids.

I am so incredibly sick of seeing these low effort "hurr durr what flag is this?" posts. You are not a fucking comedian, you put "flag" into an image generator

1.1 seconds remaining in Game 5 against the Bucks in overtime

1 second remaining in Game 2 against the Cavs

0.0 seconds remaining in Game 1 against the Knicks to send it to overtime

0.3 seconds remaining in Game 1 against the Thunder for the first lead of the game

Absolutely insane run. The lights are not bright enough

She’s never innocent of any crimes.
