Hi, guys, I've been with my hubby Tony for 16yrs. But unfortunately I have never felt that I have come 1st in our relat

He will always put his mum 1st. No matter what. He here's her have a go at me and goes she my mum just get over it. He sees her every morning he rings her every night. He rings her all weekend. If we are away the odd once a year he will ring her 3 times a day it's ridiculous. I have to sons 14 and 5. His mum manipulates my older son and makes him feel guilty he is piggy in the middle. She tells him horrible things I can't stand her. The mention of her name I become possesed a maniac. Not good. X

    You have a "mommy's boy," and she will always come first before you. It is a toxic relationship all round, and now his mother is poisoning your son's mind. If not for your own sake, but for the sake and future mental health of your son, you need to leave this situation. You will never be happy, and neither will your children.
    You have played the victim role for too long. Take charge of your own life, and make the decisions that are best for you, and your children.

    Really, he wants to do relate a marriage course. Do you think that might help. The thing is my husband has 3 brothers but there not possessive like hubby is of her. And do in my heart think it's right to leave, I love your comment. I just want to be happy instead of angry x

    If he want's to do the course, and actually goes through with it...and do it soon...or you could be waiting for years, and if you think it will help, and really change the situation, go ahead and do it. However, if he only talks of it, and does not do it, or he does it, and he still does not change, and neither does the situation, you really need to go with your heart because you have already wasted 16-years of your life waiting for him to change. It is possible he may change, but is it likely...NO...most people don't. However, you have thrown 16-years of your life away already, why not give it another month or two to see what transpires. At the same time, start planning for your life away from him, but whatever you do, don't give your power away to him anymore. Be proactive, and you set the rules, the course, and the boundaries, for your own life. Please read my story, "Don't Blame Someone Else." It may help you see things from a new perspective. Good luck, dear.

    You can't fix this. Your husband has to. BUT YOU MUST forbid absolutely mum having any contact with the crone without your subervision. She could be causing the same damage to your boy that she demented you husband with.

    I'd skuttle it if possible. Your boy must be a bit confused as it is- I had serious sh1t wih MY mom- cut her out 5 years ago-I talked about her crapfest for years and even as kids they got it- now they are adults and they know how to deal with her horrid gossip and constant narcississtic evil. Talk to your son- I'm sure he's seen enuf to start some talking points

    Let your husband know. Tell your older son to stand up for himself.

    Think it's too late for my son, he will just ignore me and go to his nans. She has money and will always win. He ask for a camara he will get £600 one he wants a guitar. £450 coming soon. My husband knows what she is like. And will always back her up. But what upsets me most the leave my 5 yr old out x
