Caught between wife and parents

Re: Caught between wife and parents

There are people who invent drama and sabotage relationships, maybe out of their own insecurities or maybe out of boredom. What the OP has described doesn’t seem out of the realm of possibility, tho I’m sure we don’t have the whole story.

As for the husband telling his parents that the wife doesn’t want to come, I think even if he hadn’t said anything they would’ve seen through whatever story he invented. It’s not like they are unaware of the tension.
