You can remember one thing she did well or what she has done for your partner when he or she was young, and focus on that particular thing. When you are in a situation where your mother in law is getting on your nerves, you can just pretend to listen to her and think about something else.

Get to know her better. All she wants to do is protect the child that you married. Just kill her with kindness. No matter what she says, show her that it wont phase you.

I would try to see her good characteristics and think of those.Try to find some things you have in common.Remember she is human and makes mistakes and has feelings too.She raised the man you love,so there has to be good qualities about her if you look for them.Try working on your relationship with her.Try doing some activities together that you both enjoy like watching a movie together or having lunch together for example.This could help you build a stronger bond.Treat her with love,kindness and respect.Try to see her as a friend instead of an enemy.

It can be a difficult thing to not get along with someone. What can be even more of a challenge is when you dont get along with those closest to you, or those that are in your life. Relationships with inlaws can at times be complicated. The important thing is to try and communicate your differences with each other. Perhaps talking over the things that keep you from getting along can put you in a better place with one another. Having a mediator with you both could also be very helpful (such as a counselor or therapist) Having an "impartial person" to help shed some light on your differences and why they are there, might help your feelings to soften, and help you to move forward.
