      my MIL likes to call my DH just to tell him what she did last wkend,where she went,which doctor she visited,what she did…etc…


      i don’t do that with my mum,so i find it uncomfortable n "weird" feelings…I find…he has showered so much attn on her,till he neglects our kids,me n himself.

      Once i told him i really find he is reali girlish,then he said i jealous. i wonder,how many men out there,do the same as my DH,wf their mothers.

      i rather he does this wf his male frds or colleagues.my DH oredi in 40s,kinda weird seeing his mum calls n updates him on these tinny winny things.

            Actually I think it is a lovely relationship between your hubby and your MIL. If your hubby can balance the time among his mother, you and the children well, it would be a perfect situation.

            My elder boy has some wooden models in his room - a house with a watermill, a house made with Canadian wood (present from SIL when she holidayed in Canada), a Merlion and an ancient ship. I am unwilling to throw these away though he does not mind not having these anymore.

            I came up with this story and shared with him: one day he would be travelling to all corners of the world, finally settling down in Canada, sometimes fly back to Sg.

            Upon hearing this, he said: dun wanna lah. I cant see you everyday.

            I said: aiyo, now internet very convenient, can video chat.

            He said: not the same lah.

            I said: when u hv your own family, u might not want to see me so often liao.

            He rolled his eyes.

              Were you expecting a different expression instead of the eye-rolling, Jennifer?

                  Ya, Desserts I think for boys to even verbalize his thoughts/emotions like that is uber-sweet. Shows the connection with the mom. :love:

                    I open mind - no expectation. He's still young, maybe still attached to me. But, of course I am secretly happy that he thinks this way. No one knows the future DIL I will get.

                    I am not an easy person to live with, too many hard rules in the household.

                      I asked cos I casually (scoff) told my girls the same thing. They are girls but also roll eyes. 😂 They know its a trap. 😂 A test. :evil: Of course, out front we declare no correct answers.. inside.. all mothers hope to hear model answers. :rotflmao:


                      :idea: Perhaps my girls roll their eyes because that topic was tested too many times. :rotflmao:

                        Mm, good idea to set traps now - training what are the model answers before they kena hantam by girlfriend(s)/boyfriend(s), wife/husband and mother-in-law or monster-in-law :rotflmao:
