'[She] does not like to wait': Boyfriend asks partner to pick up his mother from the airport, partner arrives late because 'the old lady could've waited a bit'

If your partner doesn't like your parents, they might not tell you at first, but there will be signs. 

When you start dating your boyfriend or girlfriend, you're usually so head over heels in love with them that you can't wait to meet their friends and family. After months of getting to know this new special person in your life, you're ready to go to Thanksgiving dinner or a Sunday brunch to get to know their family. Of course, this doesn't always go so smoothly. Sometimes you just don't end up getting along with your partner's parents. Maybe they're passive-aggressive or too invasive, or perhaps they're just not your cup of tea. Regardless, as long as you stick with your new love interest, you're stuck with their family, too. 

This person, u/TheOvercookedFlyer, never states outright that they dislike their MIL, but the signs are all there! They shared this story about the time their BF asked them to pick her up from the airport. The OP calls the MIL an "old lady" several times, which as commenters noted, is not the nicest way to talk about someone you respect. Check out the entire story below, then read about this teachers' pettiness when her principal wouldn't let her leave just 15 minutes early.
