My husband and I are trying to get a new house but my parents in law, esp my MIL has been against every house which we select. We will bring her to see the house and she will come up with 1001 excuses to 'hiam' the flat ie too expensive, too far from coffeeshops, too near coffeeshops (then I will get lazy and not cook...???), surrounded by flats (but all flats will definitely be surrounded by other buildings one ma, I haven't seen a flat on its own) and when we finally found one that fulfils all her criteria, she will ask us to go temple to get a divination lot.
And when we get a bad one, she told us straight away that we can't even consider that house anymore. It felt like such a waste (maybe because I am not such a superstitious person). She also kept psychoing my husband to get a house which is near to hers which I do not want because she has the tendency to drop by to "spy" on what we are doing in the house.
Just want to rant here...it is so exhausting looking for a house that fits everyone's criteria. Not easy to find one that both me and my husband like (because my husband is also quite picky) and now I feel like I have to cater to my MIL's criteria as well...no longer feels like I am looking for my own house, rather one that has the whole family staying inside...sigh...
