Hello,
I want to share something with you!
I got married. And I have caring husband. He love me as well as his mom very much.
He tells every single things of his life to his mom. I mean friend talk, all the matters. Also He asked for every single things and take the decision based on that whether his mom is right or wrong.His mom playing with his emotional black mailing to him. I can't find other way . I don't mind if he loves his mom and he cares for his mom. Just I am concerned that why he is listening all the decision from his mom. Also we don't have any personal life. Wherever me and him go, she will come with us and we keep our bedrooms door opens.
What is my life??? What should I do? I AM TIRED!!!
Please help me

Well from what i can understand of your post it seens to me that he needs to grow up. He sounds just like a little kid that would be lost without his mom. Since you two are married im assuming you are both adults. I would have a talk with him and let him know that this behavior is unacceptable. Tell him you cannot live like this forever. You married him, not his mother. Make that point clear.
And you should also have a talk with his mother. She has no right to do things like keeping doors open. She should get a life as well and stop hanging on her son.

what should I do? I mean I get tired. Sometimes I think that god take me from this world. B'cos whenever I asked basic things in my life from GOD, he never gave it to me!
Now I don't have capacity to bear anything more in my life.
Thanks,

Nancy,
First, U make one thing clear... GOD IS WITH YOU..!
This problem can be solved.. but it will take sometime..!
U havenn't done any wrong,for GOD to punish you or to harm yourself.
Talk with his mother.. politely.. a woman can understand another woman's problem..! Only by his mother's activities your husband will change. Ask her to think from your position. Donn't feel any ego to talk with his mother.
These kind of persons should be handled with full of pateince..!
All The Best...! Take Care..!
Saran

Now you really got something on your hands!! I suggest that if you are tired, you should sleep (metaphorically speaking). It can't come from us, you have to come up with what you are going to say. Otherwise, who would have changed your husband? Us or you. . Good luck. Here is a rose:

(Ignore this post)
The surest way to deumblicate him Nancy, is to introduce him to this forum. Once he is hooked, he will forget his mother. Put a screen-saver with your photo, on his computer, to make sure he remembers you. And whenever you want to have a meaningful conversation with him, do the following:-
1. Pull out the power chord.
2. Throw ice-cold water on his face.
3. Wait for 30 minutes
4. If in 30 minutes he doesn't stop babbling, repeat from 2.
You may want to put some software lock to block out some puerile posts like this one.

If you want to stay with this guy then you will have accept that you will never be better than the second most important person in his life. I say dump him. He sounds like an immature jerk.

I have a suggestion...
Defenitly its wrong from your husband's part to behave this way. I agree to that. But there can be some other story which effected him earlier and made him this much dependent on his mom.
May be if you can give him the same kind of feeling that his mom is giving him, u know, kind of 'listening to all kid talk' - kind of attention, may be.. may be he will find it more comfortable to talk you in the same way as he does with his mother now...
Then I think you can slowly turn him more matured little by little..
Sounds crazy? Sorry.. Thats all a single guy like me could imagine...
Wishing u the very best..

Now thing is like this:
His mom and father are separated last three months. Also she has one daughter. She loves her like anything. But her daughter is not talking to her nowadays b'cos of separation of her parents. She found her mom's fault.
In Past when her daughter was talking to her, that time my husband realized that she cares more for her daughter. During that time, He was very close to me.
Now because of separation with her husband and her daughter, she played some politics and showing that she cares her son like anything. As I told you that weak point of my husband is that he bliendly belives her.
What should I do that way my mother-in-law star talking to her husband and specially daughter.... And I can get my husband back.
Thanks
Nancy

it sounds to me like his mother is reacting to losing her daughter... she is not doing this conciously (deliberately). i am certain that she does not realize what she is doing, so it might be best if you talk to her about it.
if you tell her that she is disrupting your personal life with your husband, then she might realized what she is doing. if you talk to her and she still does not realize that she is putting stress on your marraige, then you will have to talk to your husband about spending so much time with her.
as for your husband; he is also acting sub-conciously. from what you said above he has always been "second" to his sister. now that he is "first," he is taking advantage of his new found relationship with his mother. it is good that he is so close with his mother now, but he needs to realize that he is neglecting you. you should probably tell him that you are feeling left-out or ignored.
just my opinion... and i am not married, so i do not really qualify to give you advice.

Please let me know If I am thinking wrong way!
Thanks again to all

Maybe you can be that person to bring the two together, if you are on good terms with your sister-in-law, that is.

If you can't get rid of the mother in law then you should become great friends with her and also her daughter. Get the mom and sister in law on friendly terms. Make it a threesome friendship of females and still give time to your husband. Then let your husband know that you are able to balance your relationships in your life.
Balance is very important.
Men have it tough - they got to give time to mom and wife - and one of them is almost all the time jealous. But it's up to us - the women - to show men how to balance their relationships.

Shama, My husband is not talking with my sis-in-law for many years. So after my marriage, my sis-in-law was and is still not talking with me. We don't have any relations at all!
Now I am trying to become like friend to my mother-in-law.

Thanks
Nancy

Be nice guys. Nancy/Angela, by balancing I mean - be able to give time and consideration to all the people who are related to you - mother, father, husband, children.
I believe that everyone has their place in your life. One has a certain intimacy with their partner that they don't have with their parents - that needs to be understood by your husband.
He needs to understand and more so his mom needs to understand that her son needs to allot his time to you as well.
And I would say if you learn to love his mom (because she ain't going away by you wishing so), you'll understand her needs better and if you get lucky she'll understand your needs. Hopefully, understanding between the two of you will lead to charity between the two of you. And then we'd be in heaven or almost - well at least for a while!
Nancy, did you really "woof" in that last thread?
This possible use of multiple userName bugs the hell out of me. Can the programmers out there do something to prevent this.

Is this what it was implied in that thread. It completely threw me off. Ok, I think I got it. No, I'm not getting it. Still not......

Nancy,
How bout try to find some way for you guys to live as far away as possible from his mother? Of course don't tell ur husband or his mother about ur true intention, but try to find a reason to live somewhere else away from your husbands mother.

Improving on Andy's idea. You might get his mom a love interest. Let her lover buy her the ticket to the tropical island. That way you would save the ticket money too.

Perhaps Nancy and Angela share a computer, and Nancy sometimes posts without realizing that the system provides Angela's login by default? Or vice versa? The do seem to use the same IP address. Nancy, please clarify what's going on here - it's difficult to take you seriously under the circumstances.
