I am losing my mind. My Fiancee's mother is evil incarnate. Sweetest woman you will ever meet at first, but behind closed doors do I seldom smile here. Worst of all, Amy(my Fiancee's name, changed for whatever purpose) is too afraid to question her authority. Amy is 21 and letting her mother dictate decisions that not only affect her life, but mine. Amy and I were supposed to leave early Sept, we had plans to release our apartment, take care of our schooling, work, etc. Now it seems her mom has made a huge deal about, asking me what my problem is that I can't spend 1 week apart from Amy. My response is this: It's not 1 week apart that I am concerned with Wendy(that's her actual name), it's 28 days away for no apparent reason. Amy wants to leave with me, but is scared of not making her mother happy. Wendy and I are in a battle of tug-o-war with Amy and I don't think it is fair at all. Thing is, I don't know what to do, Do I let Wendy(the mother) win or do I keep asking Amy to tell her mom the truth and fix our flight dates. This situation is causing lots of problems with the relationship and we have been having a lot of fights. I love Amy very much and don't want her to ever loose contact with her family, but I also want her to choose if she wants to stay her family right now or make a new family with me. Is that fair to ask? I wasn't involved in the changing of flights at all, in fact I had no say in it what so ever, when I tried to speak up, her mom ranted about how immature and disrespectful I am. I was a little mad that Amy didn't stick up for me in front of her mom, it saddens me to think that her mother could ruin our beautiful relationship. What do I do, could anyone shed some light on the situation? Please. =P
