Mom Becomes the Third Wheel in My Marriage 😩🤦‍♀️

Ever since I married my husband last October, my mom has been a constant shadow in our relationship. She nitpicks everything about him, from the way he eats to how he handles chores, and somehow always makes me feel like I’m betraying her if I defend him. My brother, who still lives with us, does nothing to help, and my mom sides with him every time my husband suggests he pitch in. I find myself echoing her toxic comments, even though I know my husband is a good man. It’s like I’m stuck in this endless loop of guilt and frustration. I love my mom, but her negativity is poisoning my marriage and my peace of mind. I feel trapped—she needs me, but I need space. How do I break this cycle without breaking my family? Please, tell me I’m not alone in this mess! 😤😵‍♀️🙃 #FamilyDrama #MarriageStruggles #ToxicRelationships #RomanticRelationships
