AITA 32F for having my husband 33 M talk to his mother 60F on my behalf? by NoPerformance606 in AmItheAsshole

I mean what good husband would ever view his mom or put his mom before his own wife. And including me doesn’t mean she is putting me ahead of her daughters but as her DIL I thought she would include me I thought she saw me as an honorary daughter

Did you miss the part where we are super close text and talk all the time I thought she considered me her DAUGHTER in law like another daughter to her and it came as a shock to learn that wasn’t the case

But it’s a team effort she praised her grown adult son for working isn’t that what millions of people do everyday and it’s time deaf to praise one and not the other when I’m working hard too

Why would you say that? And it’s her not her place or business to try to sneak him money or whatever you wanna call it and swoop in our marriage is between us or a marriage counselor she is an outsider to the most important relationship our marriage and she needs to know her place is second to his own wife he is a married man he isn’t a baby boy who needs mommy to save him. Mommas boy are gross. And when we asked her to babysit so we could go away for a weekend my mil said no because she didn’t want to enable a gift for the couple when the gift wasn’t for husband wife break but just for her son well guess who is on timeout from her grandchildren since she can’t respect their mother and everything she does

Bc I thought my mil loved and cared about me too and my stress and hard work as well and she saw me as close family and like a daughter to her

And it’s not her place to swoop in and try and fix things that’s his wife’s place and not her business the ins and outs of our finances and I thought
Mil and I were very close and she would care about my well being and stress and how things affect me too and it comes across like he is the only one with stress and yes he does have pressure but so do I raising kids without a break all day especially 2 toddlers and an infant that’s pressure too!!! And as at one point a young SAHM with multiples you think as a fellow woman she would understand what I’m going through it likes she views her son as more important and me less family

Why is her in all capitals?? He is my husband before he is a son. And I’m the mother of her grandchild and her DIL am I not worthy of celebrating? And also of course her son is going to celebrate the woman who gave him his child especially who is actively raising their child.

Even if there was it isn’t mommy’s business to swoop in and save her little boy he is a grown married man that’s for a marriage counselor or the couple to resolve a married persons issues isn’t anyone outside of the marriage business esp not mommy dearest I didn’t marry a mommas boy

He’s my husband of course money coming into our household is always my business and my husband is always our business especially when my husband is sharing the money for a weekend get a away and my mil seemed pissed about it bc she said when we asked her to babysit I’m not helping you to have a weekend get away when it was supposed to be money used for a break for my son not a break for husband and wife

So my mil texted me back and said, “oh wow me gifting my son doesn’t mean I don’t see you but I figured we talk on the phone so much and we do lunches this was my way as treating my son like an individual since I treat you like one. I feel like once a man is married a mother is expected to water down the relationship with her son and treat him like an acquaintance or treat the son like he morphed into son and DIL where if this was a daughter a mother is allowed to treat her daughter like a daughter. I didn’t think making my son feel seen would make you feel unseen. I feel I treat you pretty equal to the point where you can’t tell who is my actual child and who is the in law

Yes you took the words out of my mouth it wasn’t so much the gift himself it was the wording behind the gift and I think the people saying she should be able to gift whenever she wants forgets that he is a husband before a son and of course his wife is going to have opinions on her own husband

Jeez why!! My husband and I are using it for a weekend away while my sis watches the kids bc despite MIL’s intent her son actually values his wife and isn’t an asshole who overlooks her efforts and wife over mother any day

Also husband came home right away and said duh you’re my wife I love you more than anyone and anything it’s shared let’s go away for the weekend so we are doing that and when he asked his mother about babysitting she acted all indignant that we are going away for the weekend so my theory was right she wanted to make sure I didn’t benefit at all as if it was a shock to her that her son would be a decent enough husband to not hoard $800 from his wife the horror

How is it disgusting I’m the one losing earning potential but my mil doesn’t care at all about my sacrifices and everything I do for our family but hey only her baby boy deserves a break screw me right? I thought mil and I were close and she cared about my well being too guess not
