I’m stuck in between my mum and my wife, and I don’t know what to do.
For no particular reason, my wife was slapped by my mum
It all started last night when my wife and I were visiting my mum for dinner. We had a nice evening and were about to leave when my mum suddenly slapped my wife in the face for no reason.
I was absolutely shocked and couldn’t believe what I had just witnessed.
My wife was understandably angry and demanded an explanation, but my mum refused to answer. She just kept repeating that she had done nothing wrong and that it was all my wife’s fault.
I tried to calm the situation down, but it was too late. My wife was already livid and demanded that we leave right away. I had no choice but to comply.
On the way home, my wife was furious and accused me of taking my mum’s side. I tried to explain to her that I was just as shocked and confused as she was, but she wouldn’t listen.
We ended up arguing all night and eventually, I just gave up and said she could do whatever she wanted.
Mum refused to answer why, just said it was my wife’s fault
The next morning, I called my mum and asked her why she had slapped my wife. She again refused to answer and said it was none of my business. All she said was that it was the fault of my wife.
I was hurt and frustrated, but I didn’t know what else to do.
My wife and I have been avoiding each other ever since. I feel like I’m stuck in between them and I don’t know how to fix this. I’m scared that if I take sides, the other will never forgive me.
I’m struggling to find a way out of this mess. It’s a horrible situation and I don’t know how to resolve it. All I can do is hope that one day, my wife and my mum will make peace and I can finally move on with my life.
