I can not even love myself more than my mum...

My mother of life...
I always wish I can exchange my youth with your old age, so that you stay healthy.

If only God can grant me this wish...

Another Perspective

1. It's bn proven that Just anybody could be a "wife"...e.g. "irreconcilable differences", et al
2. There's only one mother!
3. Wifey should be calming down nah. Pretty soon she go born a girl or a boy or adopt someone that would call her "mother" who would not trade her for anyone
4. Make we check am nah: Mama has bn there for 20/30 yrs plus (sacrificed everything).. wife? Just yesterday! Habba!
5. If u reverse the question on whether Wife should love their fathers more than their husbands, chai, guz: una no stand any chance-o!
6 In epitome, there's no basis for this juxtaposition... It's not logical at all...

Only a very f00lish man would put wife above family.

Say hi to that random woman that lives with your father for me.

Oh wait! She's your mother!

Biblical concept. You spoke my mind.'Therefore shall a man leave his father and mother and joined his wife to become one,they are no more two.Therefore no man should put asunder'

Y'all need to understand emotional intelligence and boundaries

Love for mother is different from love for wife

Ur mother was married into the home by ur father, same way u married a lady as a wife into ur home

Mostly - wife and mother will not give a man any issues if there is respect for boundaries.

U cannot love one more than the other. They are seperate and the feelings n emotions dey breed are different. If u don't love ur wife enuff, ur kids will feel it. U cannot unlove ur mother too.
You were making sense until I saw if you don't love your wife enough, your kids will feel it...
WHO TOLD YOU THAT NONSENSE?

Is there any such thing like new family and old family?
OK let me try to get it from your concept, your old family was when you were some person's responsibility, and your new family is when some persons are your responsibility.

Anyone who dares compare herself to my mother is my enemy



True, my wife's love for her children is far more than what she can give me. Mother's love is a wonder of nature

That picture attached is fire bro. My mother, my life. Woman who helped bring me into this earth. The only woman that can love you unconditionally. She is simply uncomparable to any other woman.




Why are you so pained? Even my wife knows the position of my mother is above everybody.

Take sex away and the love men claim they have for their wives will be greatly reduced.
Keep deceiving yourselves!

So guys i often wonder is it OK to love wifey more than our mom. like can a man put his wife first before his mom?

a neighbor of mine sent his mom away all because she had altercation with the wife and told the wife to leave her son and set him free from her juju ,

i wanted to put mouth but don't want to insert my self in family matter . nothing will make me send my mom away like that though .

so guys would you do it?

No sensible man will ever do that on the surface of this earth, never
Re: Should A Man Love His Wife More Than His Mom? by bluefilm: 5:33am On Sep 11
The two are very different and they should be treated as thus

A man should love his mom because of the unconditional love that only moms can give

He should also love his wife because of the potential her of being the mother of his kids
Re: Should A Man Love His Wife More Than His Mom? by Demurray: 5:46am On Sep 11
It depends on the kind of mother and wife you have.

If both of them are okay in characters, I will go for my wife because she whom I have chosen to be with for the rest of my life , mother will leave her life and depar leaving you behind however, that I can't send my mother away for my wife sake.

I doubt that in the case of most wives

Every wife who ask this question is in the mind space she will stay a wife forever. The wife of today is the mom of that son tomorrow. Don't ask the wife now. Wait till she becomes the mom and ask the son in front of her.

Marriage is for a very matured. When I mean maturity, I'm talking about Emotional Intelligence

Once you're making plans to marry, there's a level of boundaries you must put in place, otherwise, you'll ruin yourself out of carelessness

Your mother can complain and quarrel, my son sucked my breast for a year plus, your son will suck his wife's own for over 30yrs.

The love for mother is quite different from the love for wife, otherwise, you could have just married your mother then. There's no point of comparison. Infact, you should never tolerate these comparison. Learn the difference

When matters arisings in the home, as a man, don't takes side, listen carefully to both sides, trust me, they're both women, if you're not intelligent enough, the one with sweetest tongue will buy you over. Carefully, listen intelligently and resolve the issues differently. Speak to your wife separately as you speak to your mother in like manners

If the issue persist, oya, mama, come dey go! Let there be peace! You might get to some point that you can't just stand in the middle anymore, you just need to save your home. Some mothers are very insensitive and hence, can say dangerous things that can affect your wife psychologically and even her self esteem. So, at some point, you must protect your wife. If you don't, who will? She left her home to join and build a new home and family, so, you're the first sibling she has...

My mom's love for me almost caused serious issues when she came when my wife delivered. I had to remind her of boundaries, mama sharply re-adjust and there was peace and harmony again.

Peace to your home for everyone going through family issues

In the marriage institution, once you marry, both of you have good and bad character. There's no perfect home. You just have to stay on top of the situation as a man intelligently

Sometimes, even you don't understand yourself! So, choosing who to protect due to character for me shouldn't even come up

I can only imagine how e be for the stranger in your family home your mother?

So, how did your mother became part of your family, if your dad had this notion then?

You see, there will be more problems in the social space in the nearest future if we continue to have this kind of baby mindset.

You have to grow and start taking stands now on how you want to raise a beautiful home. Every home you see today beautiful has lots of scars, but, one things stand out, preference for your immediate family. This is why your wife will see you as your mother's supporter and she won't invest in that business with you. She won't see that future with you. Because, over time, you've shown it to her she's not part of your family

And note, it's how you carry your wife in the mist of your family, that's how your mother and your siblings will carry her. If your family knows you cherish your wife and disrespecting her means disrespecting you, their heads go correct, except you're an irresponsible husband and sibling

This wisdom is too sound for many overgrown kids on this platform.....

They think loving there wife over there mother or mother over wife is wisdom...

For those who believe in Bible scriptures....the day you made a marriage convenant with your wife, she is as important as your mother.

And both the wife and the mother should seek wisdom to understand there boundaries....that's only way balance is created.

People go to Church, read the Bible, skip the instructions and do what's on there mind....run into trouble and blame the devil.
