She Told Her Husband That If He Loves His Mom More Than Her, He Should Marry His Mom
A 25-year-old woman has a husband who is 5 years older than her, and she says he truly is the love of her life.
“We both come from a similar background except for 2 things,” she explained. “My life back home was really hard that by the age of 7 I was a full-grown adult taking care of my mother, the household, and everything else in between.”
“I also suffered homelessness, starvation, and even financial problems but made it out of the nightmare. He grew up in a divorced household where both parents are in the picture.”
“His mother suffered a lot of hardships while taking care of both of her children(my husband and his sister). So when I started dating him I notice that he was really close to his mother.”
“I just thought that that was the normal relationship between parents and child since I was a parent to my mother.”
Well, it turns out her husband doesn’t exactly have a normal relationship with his mom. She’s been with her husband for several years now, and they married quite quickly after she came back from serving in the armed forces overseas.
That was one year ago that they got married, and now they’re planning an official wedding. She still feels happily married to her husband, but deep down, there is one thing that has been nagging at her.
“I have a feeling, no I know that when his mother dies he will be completely destroyed and not be able to function as a human being,” she said.
“And this was even fortified by the fact that when I was looking for a venue for our official wedding and his mother took it from me and he just said I should just let her have it.”

“Not only did she pick the exact location she also picked the exact decoration and date that I wanted for our wedding.”
She immediately got angry about this and confronted her husband about why he did not intervene and prevent his mom from taking their venue for their wedding day.
Her husband’s response was because it was for his mom, and she asked him if he feels she or his mom is of greater importance to him.
She’s upset because her husband routinely picks his mom over her. For example, when she was sick in the hospital and in need of surgery, her husband didn’t come to be by her side because his mom needed his help moving some furniture around in her house.
Anyway, back to the argument over the venue; she was exhausted over the fact that she never comes first when it comes to her husband choosing his priorities.
She ended up getting right in her husband’s face and yelling to him that if he loves his mom more than he loves her, perhaps he should be marrying her.
After that, her husband refused to speak to her, and he thinks she needs to apologize to him and also to his mom for what she said.
