[quote=Anonymous]I once read a really good guideline about whether a person had inappropriate boundaries outside of a marriage - whether it be a friend, a coworker, or an inlaw: If someone outside your marriage knows more about the state of your marriage than you or your partner do, then you are breaking your vows of loyalty to your partner. So, if your MIL knows more about how your husband feels about you than you do, then this is a huge boundary violation. I would never, never be okay with my DH having a stronger bond with his mother than with me, especially if he's bonding with her about concerns about me. It's a setup for a ruined marriage. What does your DH say about this? Does he not see it as unhealthy?[/quote]
