Foolish women of these days do not know they will one day become mothers in law. What you sow today you reap someday.
Even if your mother-in law is a difficult woman manage her. She will not be with you forever. Love her however she treats you. Who knows, you may just win her over someday.
What if the mother-in-law is reaping what she sowed years ago? You didn't think about that?? You see, the principle of sowing and reaping doesn't care about emotions. To use that principle in any discourse, you have to let go of emotions.

Going through the thread, you realise a lot of the posters' moms had horrible marriages so they become pseudo-husbands to compensate.

Which boy who saw love between his parents grow up into a man who thinks his wife is a stranger to him?

Which mother who enjoyed her husband's love compete with her son's wife for his attention? Even if the husband is dead, she wants to preserve their memories and gingering her son to be good to his wife like her husband was good to her.

If you do not understand that you & your wife are one and tasked with building a new branch out of your extended family, don’t bother with marriage or marry your perfect mom.

My mom wasn't the problem, she has every right to protect her son, mothers tell their daughter in law these things, it's not that bad for ur mother to tell ur wife to talk to her parent about bride prices or marriage list, abi if u spend all u have on marriage, una no go chop for house?
If she wanted to protect you she would have confronted you directly and asked you to ask for support from your own fiance. The gal no put gun to your head say you must marry her and she probably had no hand in the list that was given to you so your mother was wrong in confronting her. Alternatively, your mother could have confronted the ones who in fact gave you the list. Your mother probably thought her son was high on love and so wouldn't listen to her. Why else would your mother have stooped to going after your fiance in this. undecided

Look, you made your case to suggest that your mother did the right thing, pretending your wife hates her for the wrong reason, right? I am not saying the reason why your wife supposedly hates your wife is reasonable but what I am telling you is that what you mother did was wrong. Take it or leave it. undecided

Yeah and no one wants to admit that they have bad behaviors. Some convince their sons that the wife is a stranger, convince him to take sides and not be private, personal or respectful towards the wife. What's meant to be a family is a power play and a fighting ground to them. Often, the nuclear family doesn't hold much value to in laws. They want the wife to slave for them, they want good, beautiful and healthy kids from the union, they want plenty respect and pampering.

But you see the one benefit they would leave for the wife, having respect, standing in her own home and a special relationship with her husband, that one thing pains them to give that woman. To them its better she should be happy being a nobody in the husband's house. Then when her own son grows, she can go and be a small god in his house too, terrorizing the wife and low key being a creepy substitute wife to her own son. The circle continues.
A man said in a thread that is girl is good but the girl family are so toxic. What will be your advice for him,is like the man in question wants to wife the girl. Just that her family is toxic

He can leave or if his authority as a man can help him put his foot down and show them what he won't take, that's fine.
