Wife Hands Husband Divorce Papers Because He Didn’t Stand Up For Her When His Mother Insulted Her
A guy must create a balance between his connections with his family and wife; otherwise, he will experience anxiety and despair. He adores them and cannot tolerate insults from any of his loved ones. The issue arises when he is unsure about which side to support and acts rashly due to emotional turmoil.
OP had to deal with a similar circumstance when his mother behaved strangely toward his wife after she became pregnant with their first kid following eight years of marriage. OP’s wife had been dealing with his mother for a long time, but she became tired after the birth of their baby. OP invited his sister’s family and his mother to supper and prepared a meal for them. OP’s wife had to attend to their daughter during dinner, so OP had kept her portion in the refrigerator. OP’s niece, who had gained weight over time, couldn’t satisfy her hunger and asked for more. The cooked meal was finished save for his wife’s part, so OP offered her crackers. OP’s mother gave his wife’s food to her while he was away, resulting in a heated confrontation between his wife and mother. OP’s wife punched his mother in retaliation to her slap, which surprised him and caused him to urge everyone to leave the house. Read the tale and provide your thoughts in the comments area.
