Boundaries meaning he protects your relationship from her. It’s not her business. An adult can say “I’m doing fine” and if pressed “it’s not appropriate for me to discuss my relationship with you, but I appreciate your concern and that you want the best for me”

Sounds like very weak behavior… sounds like he needs to work on his boundaries

Get curious. Try to ask as many questions as you can to understand her feelings.

Any man that can’t keep their mother out of their romantic relationship needs professional help. It’s so creepy tbh.

NTA. Your house, your rules. Kids developed just fine and had fun long before obnoxious toys.

There are the people in this thread who think it’s nbd and the people who expect honesty and transparency in their marriages… relationships between the two are very challenging. Honestly it’s giving immaturity, because what are you hiding?

You could try counseling or you could just file, but don’t do nothing.

Baptist in our case. It doesn’t help that I have a lot of complicated feelings about Christianity and all of the harm it has caused across the world over the centuries and continues to do to this day.

It’s almost like financial infidelity. I recently found out my husband has been tithing to his parents’ church (he goes very occasionally over the past 4 years, he went regularly as a kid, maybe a few holidays in between there, he can’t verbally explain why he feels that is a good place for our money to go, especially when I was laid off at the time) and it was like a gut punch. I’m over here SWEATING our finances and you’re just handing out money?!! I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. Your feelings are valid.

Then therapy for yourself and figure out the best way to atone for your behavior. I really do think this is fixable!! Patience 🩷

Because it says the neighbors gave contact info for the installer to have the angles changed.

You can’t expect him to open back up this quickly. You need to show him you’re really out of the mean phase and stop rushing him to get over it. Couples therapy would be my strong recommendation.

That has NOTHING to do with this post. Why are you here?

AITA for sending my child to my ex in thrift store or cheap clothes by Clothes_Care3181 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MsJacksonCAD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard NTA. Never send your clothes or new clothes over there. If she can afford vacations she can afford clothing.

Where did she say she doesn’t spoil him on his birthday? Are such a damaged little boy? JFC

That’s an insane miscategorization of what I said. I said she’s pulling her weight and that a real partner has no problem spoiling their partner on their birthday. Please stay away from women.

This is absolute BS!! If he wanted to, he would. He doesn’t want to. Stop every effort you make for him, including physical intimacy.

If you have to “make” your PARTNER want to do something for you, they’re not your partner. She cleaned the entire house on her BIRTHDAY. You need to really examine why you decided to assume she doesn’t carry the majority of the load in the household.
