[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I understand your general sentiment OP but I find your example of your husbands narcissism odd. I would not expect news like that to be broadcasted to my in laws unless there was a specific reason / context. Never mind expecting my husband to bring it up in a conversation just between him and his mother. You do realize they might have been or may want to talk about things not related to you?

OP here. I am not sure what would be odd about letting his mom know that the huge effort and expense of the law school has paid off and that I could finally start a new phase in my life by working as a lawyer.[/quote]

You are right. Nothing would be odd about letting his mom know this. But there isn't really anything odd about his failure to mention it either. Which makes you ... also a narcissist. [/quote]

+1. Another attorney here. I can’t imagine being concerned with whether or not my husband announced my passing of the bar to his mother. I think it’s just kind of expected and not big news for most? Also, usually you are already working an attorney job while you wait for the (in most cases passing) results. Unless maybe you’d failed a number of times and your inability to pass the bar meant you’d lost a job and it was a big thing?

Without more context, it’s an unpersuasive example of your husband’s narcissism and says more about you than him. [/quote]
