[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think when a man gets married he generally tends to side with his wife's side. My ds is not even married, his girlfriend is lovely but I see it already. Her side is favored. We're easy going people so it's fine, but I imagine if I were more of a dramatic, diva person who liked things my way, there'd be major clashing over things, little slights can become mountains and resentment accumulates. Now throw in billionaire tantrums and expectations, immaturity, social media and public interest and it's a perfect storm for a huge mess of a situation.[/quote]

Is her side favored or is she the one who does all the planning for gifts, visits, phone calls, etc. [/quote]

+1.  Many men hate talking, planning, etc.   And they are so conflict avoidant they would rather not raise something to their mom and skip a visit altogether than have an actual conversation about an issue (which may not even be a huge issue- something like "Hey DW is allergic to your dog and can't stay overnight there unless you board the dog.")[/quote]

It's not like either of them are working. They aren't like you, living paycheck to paycheck. They have nothing else to do but hang out with their parents who foot all the bills. [/quote]

Who are you replying to and what are you even talking about?[/quote]

Who are you? Are you suggesting these two unemployed layabouts favored one side over the other because of all the work that goes into maintaining a relationship? As if they are too busy?[/quote]

I think someone made an OT post about DILs generally favoring their own families and others chimed in saying it may look like that but the sons have agency too.  I don't think anyone has compared their financial situation to the Peltz Beckhams.[/quote]

Comparing them to other couples and the division of labor/mental load implies that they are somehow like normal couples. They aren't at all. Buying gifts and making phone calls are things stressed out people who have limited means and time worry about. That doesn't apply to this couple at all.[/quote]

That wasn't the point. The point was daughters usually favor their own birth families and if in laws are unhappy about it, they should blame their sons for not doing more to maintain a relationship rather than blame their daughter in law. [/quote]

Do you really think it is Brooklyn who has been fretting about a wedding dress for 4 years? [/quote]

You still don't get it, do you?[/quote]

You’re the only one pushing this weird point. Let it go. [/quote]

Lol, says the person who keeps replying. [/quote]

Multiple people have replied even the Op who said you missed the point. [/quote]

Who are you talking to? The person who doesn't get it or the multiple people trying to explain [/quote]
