If my husband's family accepts and treats me well, it's natural I'll reciprocate in double fold. And if they treat me as an outsider, turning their son against me, rubbishing my existence in their family, then I will go into spiritual warfare for them, and physically keep them far away from me! I need absolute tranquility in my life, and I hate bad energy and toxicity of any kind. My prayer has always been to marry into a family that will accept me as one of their own. Anything short of that, please don't even come near as husband's relatives, or even mine! My mother treats her daughter in-law as her daughter, so I won't accept anything short of that from (especially) my mother-in-law, and also sisters-in-law. Because your son probably refused to marry your friend's daughter that you've been secretly nurturing for him, doesn't give you any right to mistreat me as a daughter-in-law, you know. 2 Likes |

DonroxyII: You're mistaken. Mi o buru rara o. Far from it. The thing is there are a lot of unreasonable people here on this forum and generally in the world. If any of those crosses my path, I should set them straight that's all. This generation needs to be salvaged whatever is left. I'm just doing my little part in changing the world. 1 Like |

You're right bro,I'm too weak for her,but I've learnt my lesson now, reasons why I'm doing that for her before was that I've not pay her dowries,and you understand how Ibos do go with kids,when you didn't pay bride price,But to God be the glory,I've done everything this January,so my kids are mine now,ive told her this mor me that her mom can't come to us here.and i dont even wait for her reply. My advice is simple. You were too weak and allowed your wife dictate terms in your home on issues you should have put your foot down. Now, concerning her mother, I am also saying NEVER LET HER MOTHER STAY WITH YOU. Remind her of what your own mother did and put your foot down. N.B: Your mom was from my state. The fact that your wife can treat your mom like that and you didn't make her regret such was so bad and sad. Ekiti men had balls. Where did you come from bro? How can you be so weak that your wife is now dictating terms of how, when and how long her own mom will stay in your own house and you are coming to ask us for advice? You disappoint me if this story is true. I have said it before. The day you allow a woman to disrespect you and get away with it is the day you lose your value. It always goes downhill from there.[/quote] |

Yes. Two people become one is between you and your spouse, not between you, your spouse, and your spouse's family. If the husband's mother is not likable, then it is natural not to get along with her. This is where the husband's emotional intelligence comes into play. As a man, if you are honest with yourself, you will know if your mother is an easy person to get along with. If your mum is not, then protect your wife from her. As a smart husband, you should reduce things that will create fraternity and potential clashes between them. Also, you make it clear to your mama that she should respect your marriage. Your wife should not bear the responsibility of your mama personality issues. If your wife sees your effort and is assured that she can be safe in your arms, tolerating your mama would be easy. She must not be left in the cold. Marriage is not a place where a woman comes and feels like the subordinate one in the union, where she betrays her character just to give the impression of a good wife. 8 Likes |

pansophist:I wanted to see an unbiased male perspective and this is it. Couldn't like it enough. This life is simple and easy. Don't know why we allow our ego to complicate and ruin beautiful things. At least it will reduce visits to the drs. |

descarado: If a man can't protect his wife from his family, then it's a tragedy. Sometimes when we think of bad people, it's convenient to always assume it's others that are bad, and not our mother's, sisters, twin, or even us. Evil lives in every one of us. Just as your shadows reflects in light, so as your evil is the opposite of your goodness. And any person that haven't confronted the evil in him/her, and tame it is a very dangerous person. Even worse, a man that allows his family, especially his second-half, his wife, to be a victim of unwarranted aggression from his mother has failed her. Also, you can only get the best from a person when they know you mean well for them. You can't get the best from your wife if she doesn't see you as her ally. These things are easy, I wonder why lots of people suffer from these toxic behaviours. Loving your wife also means loving her peace, and if your mum bring chaos, then protect her from your mum. 8 Likes 1 Share |

It's only a foolish man that will allow his wife separate him from his family. Your wife can abandon you when things turn upside down but your family will never! Always have that in your skull! |
