WOMAN SAW THAT HER IN-LAWS HAD PUT THE PORTRAIT THAT THE WOMAN WHO HAD AFFAIR WITH HER HUSBAND WAS IN, WANTED IT’S REMOVAL

A woman had shared her story on Reddit. She had stated that her husband had an affair while he was drunk, and her in-law’s had made a portrait to put on their wall. But in the portrait, the woman who her husband had an affair with was present. She wanted it’s removal, and that created some problem. She wanted some advice from the Redditors.

She had started her story with the affair of her husband as, “Two years into our marriage, my husband Kyle cheated on me with one of his colleagues, Madison. Kyle immediately admitted what happened and he said that it was a drunken one-time thing that they both regretted. We were having a rough patch in our relationship at that time because of the stress of being unable to conceive, so I tried to understand him and gave our relationship another chance.”
Then she learnt that the woman was pregnant from her husband, Kyle. “I was gutted when he later told me that Madison was pregnant, but what’s done was done and the only thing I could do was accept it. They now have a son, Kit. Kyle’s parents adore Kit and they have him once a week every Friday. I don’t begrudge them for that and I myself care about Kit like a stepson because none of any of this is his fault.”

Her father-in-law, had decided to gift her mother-in-law a portrait of the family, which was going to be draw by an artist. When he gifted it, MIL sent the picture of the portrait to the woman, and she saw that the woman who her husband had an affair with was in the portrait.
“My MIL sent a picture of the portrait that they put in the living room of their house. My parents in law are in the middle, and to their left is Kyle’s sister Karla. Beside Karla is her husband and in front of them are their two kids. To their right is me, beside me is Kyle, and beside Kyle is Madison. Kit is in front of Kyle. My heart sank when I saw Madison. I have nothing against Kit being in the picture and I know that they my in laws are close to Madison too, but to have her in the portrait with Kyle between me and her… that just broke my heart.”

She then called her MIL, and asked to put the portrait in some other room, because it was hurting her to see that her husband had cheated on her and had a child with another woman.
“I called my MIL and asked her if they could please keep that picture in their room or somewhere else in the house, not in the living room where I will see it every time we’re over because it reminds me that I will always share my husband with the woman he cheated on me with because she gave birth to the child that I don’t have with him. My MIL apologized for hurting my feelings but said that they didn’t mean to upset me, they were just thinking of Kit and how they don’t want him to feel that her mother isn’t family to them. My MIL said that she will put the portrait in their bedroom instead.”

She then concluded her post and wanted some advice. “Hours later Karla called me saying that my complaining about the portrait made my MIL cry on Mother’s Day and now my FIL is also upset that his gift to her, which they were originally both happy about, is causing all of this drama. Karla said I was out of line for telling my in laws what they can or cannot put in their living room, and that in reality Madison is part of their family because she is Kit’s mom. She said that I should learn to live with the fact that Madison will always be there as long as I’m married to Kyle because of Kit. I told her that I know Madison will always be there, but is it too much to ask them not to rub it in my face with a portrait showing my husband between me and Madison?”
Here are some of the comments and advices from Redditors.
“You should consider leaving your husband. You’re never going to be free from the reminder of his infidelities. Either accept it, all of it, or get a divorce. You can’t expect the rest of the family to walk on egg shells because your husband betrayed everything marriage is supposed to stand for.”

“Madison was some chick their son screwed around with behind his wife’s back, not someone who has been around his family for years. How frickin rude.”
“YTA for still being with some dude who fathered a child with another woman.”
“When Karla’s husband cheats on her and makes a baby with another woman who is then also included in a family portrait, she can tell you how you should feel.”
