My husband’s lazy mother has taken over his life and he has no time for me

0

DEAR DEIDRE: I’VE just lost my husband to his mother.

I’m 45 and he is 50. Recently my father-in-law died and my mother-in-law has been clinging on to my husband ever since.

She rings him for the smallest of things and he drops everything to help.

I’ve never got on with my mother-in-law because she’s a traditional housewife while I’ve always been career-driven.

She’s always caused problems and is the laziest woman I’ve ever met.

My husband has vowed to make her his biggest priority, but what about me? How do I win my own husband back?

DEIDRE SAYS: A death will often disrupt family life and change things.

It sounds as though your husband feels sorry for his mother, but there is no harm in him encouraging her to start regaining independence.

Take a moment to explain to your husband how you feel and allow him to explain how he’s feeling about this too.

My support pack Standing Up For Yourself will help.
