Marrying A Man Is Easy, Marrying His Mother Is Not.
June 9, 2014 2 Comments
It is my observation that two women cannot share a man and a woman is more possessive of her son than she is of her husband. So it is a natural reaction for every woman to resent the son’s wife who not only displaces the mother in terms of affection but also in terms of attention . In the normal course of events the mother chooses her son’s bride so she is more amenable to the new woman in her son’s life and unless the bride turns out to be a monster, the relationship can be cordial if not pleasant and loving. But God forbid, the man chooses his own bride, the mother already has her hackles up and for the young woman to win her heart she has to climb mountains, do somersaults, hang upside down, walk over coals and smile through every calamity. Marrying a man is easy, marrying his mother is not.
every relationship has a course to run and when the time comes for that relationship to end it does . There could be any number of reasons for the death of a relationship – the physical re-location of a person, a clash of ideas and thoughts, the redundancy of the person and ultimately the actual death of a person. It could be something that happens suddenly or something that happens over time but happens it surely does.
Here are some words to ponder.The whole story is here:
Many people find my criteria of a potential spouse hard to stomach.There always the charges of elitism,entitlement,greed and a paucity of romantic feelings.Today I am glad to find the following,penned by an older person I admire.She’s been married for three decades and has raised two very successful daughters.I’d be happy to be like her,when I reach her stage in life.Anyways, what’s so excessive in expecting men in their late thirties to have found a measure of business and social success,have some savings ,understand something about relationships and be ready for the constraints imposed by responsibilities?
