I just learned this, my sister's MIL (for lack of a better term, her BF's mom) sent my sister (addressed to her, not BF) a duvet and matching curtain topper because she didn't like my sister's selections. What MIL sent was something hideous and maroon. My sister is furious.

My xMIL used to do things like this all.the.fucking.time. It drove me nuts!! Except I would come home from work and find that she'd been in my house and replaced my rugs... then the chair pads in the dining room... then she hung curtains... It was awful. This needs to be stopped in the very early stages or it will continue forfuckingever!!! Luckily we moved 30 miles away so it stopped on its own.

I would die. The worst I ever get are comments like "I like Boyfriend's hair but I hate it when it covers his eyes, do you think maybe you should tell him that?" Or "I think Boyfriend looks really nice today except maybe he needs some nicer shoes, do you think maybe you should say something?"
He's an adult. He can make his own hair appointments and buy new shoes when he feels like it. Or you can tell him.
