[quote=Anonymous]I married a man whose mother I did not like.  I love him and our child.  I'm not crazy about our life together.  His family is a source of constant drama and stress.  My family is very sane and self sufficient, so this translates into - we see my family a couple times a year (usually when they make the effort to come to us) and his family CONSTANTLY.  There is always some crisis, need, urgent reasons we or he has to be there.  Our immediate family (including our toddler) is always put second to the seemingly constant needs of his family. His mother once said to him that spouses come and go but your parents (not even your children) are the most important. We've been together for 16 years and while I wouldn't leave over this situation, had I known how my life with him/his family (b/c yes, they are the same for his family), I'm not sure I would have married him.  It is a constant source of stress and growing resentment on my side and I'm sure my reaction is a cause of stress and resentment on his side.  [/quote]
