What you said in the original question wouldn't neccessarily mean much to me either way. Tashmere Send a noteboard - 20/04/2011 01:56:55 AM
Like several people pointed out, by itself it could be taken either way or maybe she is in the transistion phase of accepting that she doesn't have to have him with her in everything she does.

However. What you said about him speaking of her condescedingly? Whole different ball game. If my husband spoke of me in a condescending manner it would be over. Poof! Finished. That is intolerable.

Not all inlaws are bad, you know, I prefer some of my inlaws to my own family. *NM* Macharius - 19/04/2011 01:56:03 PM 412 Views
inlaws are not always bad random thoughts - 19/04/2011 02:10:18 PM 810 Views
I spend way more time with my in-laws than with my own family. Sareitha Sedai - 19/04/2011 02:17:41 PM 802 Views
I'm like this with my future in-laws too. *NM* Clover - 19/04/2011 04:47:05 PM 397 Views

I see your point Helene - 19/04/2011 10:42:51 AM 970 Views
Re: I think they are right Macharius - 19/04/2011 01:59:57 PM 861 Views
I think that's an unfair assumption. Sareitha Sedai - 19/04/2011 02:16:54 PM 789 Views
What he said about his wife's mother Helene - 19/04/2011 02:59:32 PM 951 Views
Ew. I would have a problem with that too. Something about that attitude makes me dig in my heels. Tashmere - 20/04/2011 01:37:38 AM 696 Views
No offense... ironclad - 19/04/2011 02:35:53 PM 945 Views

sadly I seem attracted to the crazies *NM* random thoughts - 19/04/2011 04:08:14 PM 398 Views
Yes. But it didn't start out like that. Took years to chip away all our rough edges. Tashmere - 20/04/2011 01:40:29 AM 890 Views
Could be either snoopcester - 19/04/2011 10:30:50 AM 899 Views
True enough... Helene - 19/04/2011 10:44:28 AM 888 Views
My opinion is the latter. Macharius - 19/04/2011 01:55:00 PM 889 Views

You don't strike me as the "screeching-howler-monkey" type to begin with. *NM* Macharius - 19/04/2011 03:33:41 PM 402 Views
I love just about everything about you Sareitha. Good answers all. *NM* Tashmere - 20/04/2011 01:26:34 AM 372 Views
I translated "I will think about it" as a secret but obvious code for. "I don't really want to but Tashmere - 20/04/2011 01:34:36 AM 986 Views
that's what I would have meant if I said "I'll think about it" *NM* LadyLorraine - 20/04/2011 02:00:33 AM 377 Views
The fact that you are referring to a fiancé and comparing it to wife says a lot random thoughts - 19/04/2011 02:09:27 PM 967 Views
To be fair, me and my fiance have been together for about as long as they have Helene - 19/04/2011 02:57:03 PM 820 Views
I don't know about everyone but things changed when we got married random thoughts - 19/04/2011 03:16:11 PM 851 Views
How did things change? Helene - 19/04/2011 04:14:56 PM 874 Views
Like I said I can only speak for myself random thoughts - 19/04/2011 04:54:04 PM 867 Views
There's already a 10 year old in the picture for us Helene - 19/04/2011 06:52:44 PM 795 Views
My husband and I don't understand why people say this. rebelaessedai - 20/04/2011 01:03:31 AM 898 Views
I did say I was only speaking for myself random thoughts - 20/04/2011 01:58:45 PM 837 Views
I know. rebelaessedai - 20/04/2011 09:01:11 PM 1070 Views

From the information that you have presented... Jeordam - 19/04/2011 03:50:19 PM 993 Views
I am in agreement with you, and I'm not particularly Christian. Helene - 19/04/2011 04:11:57 PM 800 Views
Which is sad (not the agreement, but their potential future) Jeordam - 19/04/2011 06:29:47 PM 874 Views
Oh yes... I'm of course not sure. I can be way off base :-) Let's hope I am. Helene - 19/04/2011 06:55:13 PM 844 Views
Could go either way. Dannymac - 19/04/2011 04:36:02 PM 821 Views
I get the impression that it's more about her forming toward him than vice versa Helene - 19/04/2011 06:56:37 PM 803 Views
Giving up is one thing, growing past is another. Dannymac - 19/04/2011 10:00:55 PM 762 Views
Oh, to be fair, he's the friend and she's the wife Helene - 20/04/2011 08:43:12 AM 742 Views
I don't necessarily think it will end in a breakup or divorce. Clover - 19/04/2011 04:44:11 PM 801 Views
I think you are 100% right about having a good realtionship with your spouse's family random thoughts - 19/04/2011 05:07:12 PM 814 Views
I think this is about priorities. rebelaessedai - 20/04/2011 01:07:20 AM 948 Views
Our priorities may shift over time, too. We're still very young and more tied to our families. Clover - 20/04/2011 03:09:54 AM 805 Views
Even when younger, I was independent. rebelaessedai - 20/04/2011 05:29:59 AM 704 Views

It's not all out "she's worthless", it's more like "she's a bit silly with all her wishes" Helene - 20/04/2011 08:46:49 AM 799 Views
That would still be a deal breaker for me. Tashmere - 20/04/2011 11:49:09 PM 803 Views
I'm leaning more towards your interpretation. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 20/04/2011 02:15:22 AM 361 Views
