Is your one regret really that you hadn’t gotten married sooner? Because reading this, I think you’re trying to tell yourself a story to make the reality seem better. You made a mistake. You may think it is so romantic to everyone that you got married so quickly but I knew what the issue was when you said you had known each other 6 months before tying the know, and so did everyone else reading this.

You didn’t know him or his family well enough and you’re bragging to everyone how you hadn’t even had a fight yet. That’s not something to be proud of. I’m not saying you should be fighting but it sounds like you barely know each other.

He tells his parents details about your sex life, and you think that kind of closeness just stopped? His mom thinks you are the literal devil because of what YOUR HUSBAND has said about you. Think about that. All the terrible stuff she knows, thinks or says is from him.

He probably still is talking about you that way. He’s not defending you or backing you up. You shouldn’t be meeting with her to clear the air, a real partner would be going to their parent FOR you and defending you. He stinks. Don’t have kids with him, and maybe next time think about why people wait more than a few months to get to know each other before they get legally tied together. He does not have your back. What do your friends think?
