    Dont you dare...

    So, it was late last night ( or this morning) and my husband and I were having a rather heated disagreement over the phone. Stupid i know, but I admit the entire conversation was dumb. I didnt call him to yell at him but it ended up that way...you know.

    Hubby is in his parents house in FL right now, and I am home in PA. In the middle of this disagreement, his dad comes out to the patio where hubby is and demands the phone...so he can talk to me.

    Mind you...we are 27 years old and have been married for 7 years next month.

    Hubby, very correctly tells his dad no and asks that he go back inside and after a few "But I's...." his dad goes back in.

    But seriously?! You would fuckin dare get on the phone as your grown ass son is having an argument with his wife that you have nothing to do with?

    I think that may have pissed me off more than what we were actually bickering about.

    Just venting. Im still ticked that his dad would try to do that.

    That sounds like something my mother would do. Every time I talk to her, she's all, "How's Fiance doing? What's he up to lately?" Um, you've got his number, why don't you call and ask him? I'm not my fiance's messenger.

      I guess i shouldve added that he was actively trying to get into our argument. It wasnt a "Hey how are ya!?" kinda call, as I usually have no problem talking to my Father in law. However, I am not 16 neither is your son, so stay the F outta my convos, thanks. Lol.

      But yes, AA...Id tell my mom the same thing...in fact, I do. Lol.

          Why are parents so gosh darn nosy?

            We are nosy because we care, but I don't usually get involved in the arguments my children have with their SO. The only time I have ever stepped in was to talk to my child about how their SO made my child feel about themselves and leave it to my child to take my advice or not.

            Now, if my child's SO is laying their hands on them (which has not happen to date) I would most certainly go all mama grizzly.

              That i understand. You can be nosy. Ask what you want AFTER the phone is hung up...but I would have fuckin exploded (probably literally) had his dad taken the phone from him and tried to get into the middle of something that was truly none of his business. Also, if I were to beat my husband....then someone feel free to stomp my ass into the ground b./c that is unnecessary. I dont believe in spousal abuse.

              Maybe its just me or how I was raised. But my business has always been my business (when it comes to things like this). Is that mean? Lol.

                You are right, it was none of the dad's business. If I was the father, I would have walked away and let you guys handle it.

                I would have gone off too if I was you and the father took the phone. You are 100% correct!

                  This is a lot more important than people give it credit for.

                    Thats true. I was more pissed off at his dad after that that I think the argument ended... LOL!

                      Thanks. Nothing wrong with defending your kids, I agree wholeheartedly. I hope that my relationship with my kids is such that they feel they can talk to me after something happens. But I wouldnt step in the middle unless it was getting outrageous and physical (or someone was calling the cops!) Lol.

                        I was in the middle of breaking up with my boyfriend over the phone (long story) and I could hear his mother in the background yelling "Don't let her break up with you, don't let her break up with you!"

                        Needless to say I broke up with him

                          Holy shit, Anima!

                          This is where my gender bias REALLY rears it's ugly head - against my OWN gender.

                          I simply cannot picture a grown-ass, middle aged MAN attempting to intervene on a phone conversation between his grown ass-son and his grown-ass wife. A female (mommy), yeah - I can picture it...but I simply can't wrap my mind around a middle aged man doing that.

                          Hmmmm.

                          Now that I think about it, my ex father-in-law tended to get drunk and make loud comments that were *directed* toward people on the receiving end of the phone with one of his kids, but he would have never actually attempted to *take* the phone.

                          Anyway - definite bonus is that your hubby told Daddy to get bent. It would have been so much worse if he hadn't.

                            Yes. I think we should all see the good side here:

                            Anima's husband ROCKS for having a spine. GO HUBBY!
