“AITA for being upset my mother-in-law asked for pictures of my husband and his baby?”
Right after my husband and I got married, he was served with paternity papers for a child he did not know about. A month before our engagement, a year before, he had cheated on me with some random girl who was his “friend.”
She got pregnant and never told him. I think she knew about me. Yes, I know I should have left, but I have been trying to make it work. I am now pregnant with his baby.
For the baby’s first birthday, my in-laws had her birthday party. The baby and the baby’s mother live in another state. At the birthday party, my mother-in-law kept saying she wanted pictures of just my husband, the mistress, and the baby, and we had brushed her off.
Then, she wanted a picture in front of a backdrop she created. My husband stood up to take the picture and told me to come up too. My mother-in-law got upset, saying she just wanted pictures of the three of them. I didn’t say anything, but my husband responded that she was doing too much. He knew I was already uncomfortable. I sat down, and pictures were taken.
