Do you feel you married your soulmate or you married the next best thing?

I love my husband but my life has gotten pretty difficult since we got married 3 years ago. I regret marrying him not because of him but his grandma who raised him and lives with us. She's 98 now but she's hated me (or any woman he's been with for that matter) and has made my life incredibly difficult. This was one of the worst mistakes of my life to move in with my husband and his grandma. I don't even know where to start but we argue all the time because of her. She's so selfish that she scheduled her doctor's appointment on the same day that I had my embryo transfer (we're doing IVF). She tried to make that day all about her and tried to get my husband to be with her instead of being with me. I don't understand why people think old people are nice. The kicker is she's nice to everyone else so everyone thinks she's this super sweet old lady. She does everything to put herself in a good light and make me look like a horrible person. I have legit considered divorce especially if our embryo transfer doesn't work (don't know yet if I'm pregnant). Me leaving would make her so happy and she would probably feel like she won but at this point I seriously don't care. And I know she's very old but trust me, she's going to live for at least another 5 or more years. There is absolutely nothing wrong with her health. And frankly I don't think I can take living with her even for just another year.

To answer your question: no I don't feel at all that I've married my soul mate. After everything I've been through since I met him, I can say with 100% certainty that this isn't true love. He would have done more to protect our marriage if he truly loved me. Instead he puts his grandma first each and every time. This isn't love. At all.
