Got a guy with a situation involving his mother and wife.
He’s newly married, and they all live together—him, his wife, and his mother.
It all started well. Everyone got along, and they were one happy family.
But after a few months, fractures start to appear.
The mother starts interfering, picking faults with his wife, and that’s when the tension starts building.
Now, this guy’s caught in the middle.
He’s trying to please his mum and his wife, but no matter what he does, things just keep getting worse.
Now they can’t stand each other anymore and they’ve both turned on him to man up.
Both of them are using guilt and shame to manipulate him.
His mum says, ‘Your wife’s taking you for a ride,’ while his wife says, ‘You never stand up to your mum.’ So no matter what, he can’t win.
