I think others have given good advice not to share as much. It's a challenge, but will be worth it in the end.
We have a superficial relationship and don't tell MIL things and keep it superficial for different reasons, but the intent is the same: the less she knows the better our relationship is.
My FIL is the exact same way. Anything we said/shared or just chatted about in conversation was shared with everyone. I did not know the extent until I was checking out at Traget when the cashier told me she was sorry for my loss (m/c). Apprently, she worked at Target as her second job but worked with my FIL full time. The amount of personal information she knew about me/my family was astounding.
