Name: DD
u r very very similar in thinking to me.I think quite similar like this way.And somehow did it.
But u know the result...now she is over confident that her son only listens to her and her son is not satisfied with me and so neglects me.So ?I have to obey her thasy I'm doing it.
I just lost myself after doing the same and now still loosing.
So, As Ami said, Our relationship with mil is only depends on hubby and only hubby.
If that man is perfect and can know where to draw a line for mommy and for his wife and If he can balance both of them... neighther of them feels insecured and does behave cunning to Dil/MIl.
But, unfortunately those gentle men r very rare ...and most of the men only draw lines either to wife or to mom. ...
So, dear aqua, In ur case,luckily it worked oout.But for me, it gave bad result and now she feels over confident and ruling her son's mind like anything.Unfortunately my hubby is a kinda man that feels he shd draw lines to wife .
SO here ,loser is me forbeing fair and positive. She is the winner for being cunning and negativethinker.
