I get along with my MIL great. She has always been very nice to me and supported my husband and I in our decisions even when she doesn't completely agree with them or when others thought we were crazy. My husband and his mother are very close since he is an only child and she raised him without his father being around, but she is still respectful of our relationship together. Last year, she moved from another state and is now living right next door to us. We joke about it being an "Everybody Loves Raymond" type situation, but it's really not because she is not intrusive or overbearing at all.
