Whenever husband and wife are into a heated arguments, husband will jump right in to his mama and began a glorious accounting of what they're arguing about. Mama, then, will call up the wife defending his baby boy. Mama will also launched into a long distribe about how bad a wife she is and that she should show more concern to her baby boy. This has been happening to my friend for years. I personally witnessed how my friend need to cope with emotional breakdown everyday of her life. Will it be better if the mother avoid meddlng into their marriage affairs. She is not really helping them but causing more conflict and tension between the couple. Anybody ever had this same kind of problem?

i am fortunate enough to have married a man who is not a mama's boy. though i know and that he loves and respects his mom very much. that is one of his traits that make him endearing. i heard before that how a man treats his mother would show how he will treat his wife. and my husband just does that. =)

i agree with what you're saying. fortunately for me, my husband does not expect me to be exactly like his mom. come to think of it, there was never an instance when he compared me to her.

Let me pose a question back to you:
Would you want a husband who only loves his wife but is not filial to his mother?
Further, another would be: how would you like it when your son grows up learning from his father and treating you shabbily?

It isn't a problem that a man loves both his mother and wife. But he should learn that anyhting going on between him and his wife should be shared between them only. There is a limitation on how much you will share something to your mother.

yes i am, i love my mama so much, she is the queen of my life, but thats not mean that i teell her my problems with my wife, it is not the right way in the relationship between husband and wife; both of them are the completing part of the other, secret keeper, and best friend, so whatever the much i love my mama, i cannot tell her the problems between me and my wife, i hope you got the messege.

I like mama's boy because i heard other said that look on the way how the guy treated his mom and that is the way he will treat his wife. But in the character of your friend's husband i think that kind of character will annoy me. I think there are times that guy need to be open to his mom but he must not look for some ally, he must just tell it just to comport him.
