That's BS. My boyfriend's mom is like this, but he realizes it and has sided with me. His dad is always asking him for cash and help too. But they never help us out and all they do is cause is grief. All these answers saying "it's your family too" and that you shouldn't have any say are ridiculous. They obviously don't know what it's like to have a man with bossy parents. As my boyfriend put it the other day, "I don't want to spend the rest of my life with my parents. I want to spend it with you." He wants to please me first. And that's how it should be. S/O first, family second. Everyone has this idea in their heads that you can't turn your back on blood, but if they're negatively affecting your life, then you have every damn right to cut them out. Let him know that. Maybe he is afraid to stand up to them. It's not a respect thing. He doesn't have to respect them if they don't respect him. He's a grown man with his own life now. He shouldn't have to take care of them.
So frustrated 😣
I'm sick of my husband's parents using him, every time I bring it up he gets upset!!! I can't win with this family. I've been with my husband for 11 yrs. his mom pretends to be nice when he is around so she can get him to do anything my gosh they want him to remodel their whole house!!! We have put our remodeling on hold for them!!!! 😡
