His Wife Is Constantly Gushing About Her Friend’s Son, And He Finally Said He Doesn’t Want To Hear It Anymore Because She Never Talks Like That About Their Own Daughter
This man and his wife have been married for around three years, and they have one child– a 2-year-old daughter– together. And one of his wife’s friends also has a baby, but the child is a 1-year-old boy.
According to him, his wife also always wanted to have a son more than a daughter. So now, he cannot help but notice how much his wife gushes over her friend’s son instead of their own little girl.
Apparently, each time that his wife hangs out with her friend, she will return home and go on and on about her friend’s son– talking about how smart and cute he is.
His wife will tell various stories and won’t skimp on the details, either. She will also take videos and photos of her friend’s kid and even send them to him.
“That sounds cute and everything, except that she never talks like that about our kid,” he said.
“It’s almost as if she wishes that kid was hers.”
Just the other day, his wife went to hang out with her friend, too, and the same exact thing happened all over again.
She came back and started going on about how she “couldn’t believe” how cute her friend’s baby was.
And at that point, he stopped her halfway through her statement. Then, he told his wife that he just didn’t want to hear about her friend’s kid anymore.

“That I don’t see the same excitement and impression from her when she talks about our kid,” he recalled.
He also decided to ask his wife if she wished they had her friend’s son instead. But this only made his wife furious.
She accused him of getting jealous about a toddler. However, he swears that he is not jealous.
“But I do want my wife to prop up our own kid more than anyone else,” he vented.
“And she is not doing it.”
Still, now that his wife is upset with him, he’s been left wondering whether refusing to hear her talk about her friend’s baby anymore was really a jerky thing to do.
Can you understand why he doesn’t appreciate his wife gushing about a different child more than their own? Was his reaction justified or not? How would you have handled this situation if you were in his shoes?
