I won’t be the paragraph guy but the summary is that he was determined to fix his marriage so he finished the nursery while she was gone on their anniversary. She was thankful for him to finish it and she finally started distancing herself from her dad and stopped answering his calls. That’s all I know 🤷🏾♀️
Ah yes... when competing with the Father. Admittedly, its one thing to feel some type of way toward him for trying, though ultimately, the blame lies on her for allowing him to drive a wedge. A lesson I learned all too late.
I have always been aware of the blood thicker than water thing. Have experienced it from others plenty of times including relationship partners. But never agreed with it and dont tolerate it. If family is your priority than do potential partners a favor and dont get in a relationship.
That's exactyly the condition I start all my conversations with. My family will ALWAYS be my first priority bar none. Unless they are actively dying, they will always come second. Of course, I except the same treatment from them. If they hope to "change my mind" they will be sorely disappointed. If they can't except that, I don't even wanna talk.
@Furrina89, your spouse is your primary family now. Not your parents. By all means love your parents but your spouse comes first. Otherwise the marriage won't work. Because if the two of you are too busy putting your parents first then why tf even be together?
They use the shortened quote to their advantage. "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb" is the original quote, and it means the exact opposite. The family that you choose will be stronger than the one your given.
This is such a heartfelt story! It's clear that you really care about your wife and your future together as a family. Your efforts to create a loving and prepared environment for your baby are truly commendable. I'm curious, how did your wife react the next day? Did she continue to prioritize your time together and the preparations for the baby? It sounds like you're both on a journey towards a stronger relationship, and I hope things keep improving for you. Keep up the great work and communication!

For real. My wife is stuck to her dad like glue and I fucking hate him for it. And he's never liked me or appreciated me.
