His wife and he are the only ones in a position to really judge though, I think. I'm not sure how it would be possible for someone outside of them to know if his wife accepted his not going along because she's reached a point where she is happy to go alone and let him do his own thing or because she's angry but doesn't think it is even worth having a row about.

Relationship - positive development or signs of eventual break down? Helene - 19/04/2011 08:48:26 AM 1829 Views
Helene, I want to give you an answer but... Urza - 19/04/2011 08:58:45 AM 975 Views
Fair enough Helene - 19/04/2011 10:01:51 AM 933 Views
Not all inlaws are bad, you know, I prefer some of my inlaws to my own family. *NM* Macharius - 19/04/2011 01:56:03 PM 454 Views
inlaws are not always bad random thoughts - 19/04/2011 02:10:18 PM 895 Views
I spend way more time with my in-laws than with my own family. Sareitha Sedai - 19/04/2011 02:17:41 PM 882 Views
I'm like this with my future in-laws too. *NM* Clover - 19/04/2011 04:47:05 PM 432 Views
I think they are right ironclad - 19/04/2011 10:20:39 AM 1109 Views
I see your point Helene - 19/04/2011 10:42:51 AM 1060 Views
Re: I think they are right Macharius - 19/04/2011 01:59:57 PM 939 Views
I think that's an unfair assumption. Sareitha Sedai - 19/04/2011 02:16:54 PM 864 Views
What he said about his wife's mother Helene - 19/04/2011 02:59:32 PM 1035 Views
Ew. I would have a problem with that too. Something about that attitude makes me dig in my heels. Tashmere - 20/04/2011 01:37:38 AM 784 Views
No offense... ironclad - 19/04/2011 02:35:53 PM 1017 Views

Don't try to corrupt me with your long term pessimism ironclad - 19/04/2011 03:34:39 PM 894 Views
sadly I seem attracted to the crazies *NM* random thoughts - 19/04/2011 04:08:14 PM 436 Views
Yes. But it didn't start out like that. Took years to chip away all our rough edges. Tashmere - 20/04/2011 01:40:29 AM 963 Views

True enough... Helene - 19/04/2011 10:44:28 AM 955 Views
My opinion is the latter. Macharius - 19/04/2011 01:55:00 PM 962 Views
He definitely has a point about realistic expectations Sareitha Sedai - 19/04/2011 01:56:49 PM 933 Views

I should have read this first. Sareitha Sedai - 19/04/2011 02:25:16 PM 983 Views
Re: He definitely has a point about realistic expectations Sareitha Sedai - 19/04/2011 02:23:14 PM 955 Views
You don't strike me as the "screeching-howler-monkey" type to begin with. *NM* Macharius - 19/04/2011 03:33:41 PM 440 Views
I love just about everything about you Sareitha. Good answers all. *NM* Tashmere - 20/04/2011 01:26:34 AM 405 Views
I translated "I will think about it" as a secret but obvious code for. "I don't really want to but Tashmere - 20/04/2011 01:34:36 AM 1059 Views
that's what I would have meant if I said "I'll think about it" *NM* LadyLorraine - 20/04/2011 02:00:33 AM 410 Views
The fact that you are referring to a fiancé and comparing it to wife says a lot random thoughts - 19/04/2011 02:09:27 PM 1041 Views
To be fair, me and my fiance have been together for about as long as they have Helene - 19/04/2011 02:57:03 PM 893 Views
I don't know about everyone but things changed when we got married random thoughts - 19/04/2011 03:16:11 PM 934 Views
How did things change? Helene - 19/04/2011 04:14:56 PM 951 Views
Like I said I can only speak for myself random thoughts - 19/04/2011 04:54:04 PM 958 Views
There's already a 10 year old in the picture for us Helene - 19/04/2011 06:52:44 PM 886 Views
My husband and I don't understand why people say this. rebelaessedai - 20/04/2011 01:03:31 AM 995 Views
I did say I was only speaking for myself random thoughts - 20/04/2011 01:58:45 PM 933 Views
I know. rebelaessedai - 20/04/2011 09:01:11 PM 1157 Views
Sorry for some reason I thought you had just got married. random thoughts - 20/04/2011 09:52:24 PM 1399 Views
Good luck to them! *NM* rebelaessedai - 22/04/2011 04:25:38 AM 423 Views

From the information that you have presented... Jeordam - 19/04/2011 03:50:19 PM 1111 Views
I am in agreement with you, and I'm not particularly Christian. Helene - 19/04/2011 04:11:57 PM 872 Views
Which is sad (not the agreement, but their potential future) Jeordam - 19/04/2011 06:29:47 PM 949 Views
Oh yes... I'm of course not sure. I can be way off base :-) Let's hope I am. Helene - 19/04/2011 06:55:13 PM 919 Views
Could go either way. Dannymac - 19/04/2011 04:36:02 PM 899 Views
I get the impression that it's more about her forming toward him than vice versa Helene - 19/04/2011 06:56:37 PM 901 Views
Giving up is one thing, growing past is another. Dannymac - 19/04/2011 10:00:55 PM 857 Views
Oh, to be fair, he's the friend and she's the wife Helene - 20/04/2011 08:43:12 AM 817 Views
I don't necessarily think it will end in a breakup or divorce. Clover - 19/04/2011 04:44:11 PM 886 Views
I think you are 100% right about having a good realtionship with your spouse's family random thoughts - 19/04/2011 05:07:12 PM 891 Views
I think this is about priorities. rebelaessedai - 20/04/2011 01:07:20 AM 1040 Views
Our priorities may shift over time, too. We're still very young and more tied to our families. Clover - 20/04/2011 03:09:54 AM 880 Views
Even when younger, I was independent. rebelaessedai - 20/04/2011 05:29:59 AM 783 Views

Not the former for sure, and maybe not the latter. Palatine - 19/04/2011 05:55:03 PM 943 Views
I think it's impossible for me to judge their future status without knowing more about them LadyLorraine - 19/04/2011 07:22:32 PM 904 Views
Can't tell. nossy - 19/04/2011 10:04:27 PM 861 Views
I'm with the 'can't tell' crowd. Antigone - 19/04/2011 11:37:17 PM 1174 Views
hell, or she could just not care too much at all LadyLorraine - 19/04/2011 11:43:21 PM 884 Views
What you said in the original question wouldn't neccessarily mean much to me either way. Tashmere - 20/04/2011 01:56:55 AM 898 Views
It's not all out "she's worthless", it's more like "she's a bit silly with all her wishes" Helene - 20/04/2011 08:46:49 AM 874 Views
That would still be a deal breaker for me. Tashmere - 20/04/2011 11:49:09 PM 883 Views
I'm leaning more towards your interpretation. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 20/04/2011 02:15:22 AM 397 Views
I don't know. *NM* (I feel bad for the 20 people who viewed this message- my apologies) Vivien - 20/04/2011 04:36:13 AM 934 Views
