I feel so sad that my friend's wife after repeated appeals has continue to take instructions from her mother and feel safe to ignore her husband. The worst is, on any issue that her mother has a different view from her husby even when it does not bother on religious doctrine, she would rather heed her mother's or other people opinion.
My friend has also complained about poor intimate lifestyle. He mentioned that his wife has to enquire of her father what intimate preference she should allow. Her father has already warned her never to allow MouthAction that it is not biblical. This has affected their love life seriously to an extent that except the usual MISSIONARY STYLE, she won't accept any other intimate position.
The part that I can't understand is the fact that on every little issue, she would reports her husband to her mother who seems to be scared of telling her the real truth about marriage but would rather side her daughter and find reasons to blame the son-in-law.
The least thing like naming of baby, the wife and her mother insist that the baby's name must first be disclosed and discussed before it can be given. But knowing the type of wife he has, meaning that there is bound to be arguments about names to be given, he decided to go solo yet they are openly confronting him on it.
This lady also has openly accused her mother-in-law of being a witchcraft without fact no any prove just base on mere hatred as the woman from all account of those who knew her affirm otherwise; and this accusation is widely circulated within the family and the community when in reality, the woman is innocent.
My friend is so frustrated and is considering leaving the home. This latest move is unknown to her and its based on her refusal to adjust after several warning and appeals. Your views and advises are needed please.
