[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was she a single mom? I feel like sons with single moms seem to have a much stronger attachment. But no, this won't change. [/quote] This was the case with my friend and her soon STBX. Mother was divorced decades ago, yet still playing the victim card. It was tough to watch. Disliked the attn friend was getting from her son, disliked her relationship with STBX's father and wife....she was close with them. Excluded her from family events, bad mouthed her to other siblings, ignored her, while maintaining relationship with son. Son just played stupid. Finally he left her (!) at his mother's bequest because she was complaining about his mother too much. He refused to deal with it, called her oversensitive, over reactive, etc. Marriage counselor called mom "toxic." Husband just did not get the message, never considered her as his family, just his family as his family. After a while, he was dismissive and abusive to her as well. I say...good riddance, but MIL now thinks she "won." Look what the prize was, though. He lost a beautiful woman who loved him....oh, and most of his friends.[/quote]
