In the latest episode of "The Dalina Show" on Andale Media, Dalina Buzi interviewed a woman with the pseudonym Ani, who shared her painful story of separation from her husband and the devastating impact of his family on their relationship.

A relationship started with hope

Ani was 26 when she met her partner. At that age, the social pressure to have a partner and children was great. She admits that she needed attention and love, and he gave it to her. However, the huge differences in their upbringing and the influence of his family would ruin everything.

Meeting his family: a warning sign

The first meeting with his family was ordinary, but the second meeting was a warning sign. During a trip, his mother spent time talking badly about anyone who disagreed with her. She tried to teach Ani how to defend her in front of others, making her feel like an ally. Ani realized that her mother-in-law was a person unhappy with herself and her life.

Manipulation and indifference

His mother used double messages: in front of Ani she spoke kind words, but in private she told her son that she did not love him. After the birth of the child, Ani had suspicions that he had another, and discovered messages where in fact the husband's mother was manipulating her son that he "didn't love her anymore". During the postpartum period, their relationship deteriorated, he became distant and found support in his family. Ani understood that he needed support to boost his ego, and this made him feel unappreciated and lonely.

The child's rejection and the indifference of his parents

Ani realized that they did not love her son. After a year and a half, when they first met, her husband's mother propped her grandson on the couch and put her foot on his back to hold him, making him feel like an object rather than a beloved child. His father was indifferent, never said a kind word to him, and constantly criticized her husband. Her in-laws lived in debt and demanded money from Ani and her husband, making her feel exploited.

Sharing and learning from experience

Ani realized that she had invested a lot in this relationship and sacrificed a lot to preserve the family, but she could not change the behavior of his family. She realized that education and demands on herself are more important than anything else. The separation was a difficult but necessary step to save herself and her child.
