My in-laws prefer his Ex

If I do or say anything that bothers my father in law, he says this: “Don’t make me call Jane to come and save our boy.”

Jane is the ex. The one they clearly prefer over me. She is still single, and they still invite her to come and visit them, several times a year. My husband tells them they need to stop seeing her, but they won’t.

I’ve been married to their son five years as of this month. I used to cry, but now I tell my father in law, “Go ahead and call your Janey, big guy.” And I smile. Sometimes I even laugh. It really confuses him!
