Why compare apples to oranges? The two women have a unique role to play in a man's life. Nobody comes first, nobody comes last. There is no competition. 7 Likes |

igbinigiejeff: Both can come first in the life of the Man. How? It's by having this notion Man to his mum: Mum, I love you so much but the love I have for you is very different from the love I have for my wife Man to his wife: Sweetheart, I love you so much but the love I have for you is very different from the love I have for my mum. It might sound confusing but telling both that statement will create a feeling in the mothers heart that 'my son loves me so much and I come first in his life' and also in the wife's heart that 'my husband loves me so much and I come first in his life' My opinion though |

Mindfulness: Thank you jare, dunno why people compare both. They each have their place in a man's life. But if you are a christian then you must have seen in your Bible where it says "a man shall leave his mother and father and cleave to his wife....." Which means your wife becomes your first priority. That doesn't mean your mother ceases to exists though. 3 Likes |

The two women have important roles to play in a man's life.None is superior, every role is unique . The keyword is respect and understanding. No body stole any one, no need for comparison and competition.Both need to be friends in order to get the best from the man |

Op reality is what matters as d matter relates to u. If u say its ur mother, u'll find anoda man who'll say its d wife and u can't blame him cus his mother might not have really infuenced him or perhaps he didn't grow up under her There's a popular saying that "every man has a measure of his mother in him and this measure determines how caring he will be to his wife" But one will wonder how the man who got d inspiration to care for his wife from his mother can now hardly pay attention to his mother cuz he's been hypnotized by the wife who now enjoys the sacrifices of her mother-in-law on her husband. Well I'll conclude by saying, don't bother who's important. Apply wisdom as ur own family case may be and as a man don't show much affection to ur mother in ur wife's presence and don't show much affection to ur wife in ur mother's presence. Also, conceal secrets that may cause conflict btwn them both. Especially if ur mother raised u as a single parent or u're the only son, then it can really be an issue 3 Likes |

olayinkajnr:In my opinion,there is no need for position. Everyone in a man's life is equally important. Starting from his parents, to his wife, down to his children. They are all unique,irreplaceable and important. Give each their dues while they reciprocate. Mutual respect,love and understanding is all that matters Of course the love he has for them is deep and different |

From the biblical point of view, the wife is his no 1 priority. They both play different role and shouldn't resort to competition , the man's immediate family is his wife and kids. It will be easier for the man if these too women in his life can relate well. It will make sense if mothers too understand where their roles ends . |

Who should come first in the life of your father, his wife(your mother) or his mother(your grand mother). This is not a competition. Hian!!!!!!! |

A wife will enventually be a mother someday. So treat a mother just as u want to be treated. A mother was once a wife and still is, there are good things u can learn from them. Once a man is married, there is a boundary which even his mum must respect. He is no longer that ur baby boy. Shove aside that "I carried him 9months threat" at every little thing. The wife was same 9month. Both personalities are important and if they stay within their confines and live responsibly without frictions and rancour. |
