Who's #1 ? Wife or Mom?
Men: Is It Your Wife or Your Wife? Who is #1?
We are all aimlessly scrolling through social media these days, and we ran across this… very interesting video during our usual Twitter scan that sparked an interesting debate.

In the video you can see a young woman arguing with an older woman sitting in the passenger seat of the car, demanding that she get up from her seat and sit in the back of the vehicle. The suspected husband is in the driver’s seat and taking his sweet time to get involved as his mother and his wife verbally abuse each other.
People had various different opinions on this interaction but the main question up for debate was:
Who should be most important to a married man, his wife or his mother?
*Before I begin this commentary, I want to say that this is all in good fun and wholly my PERSONAL opinion. Enjoy yourself and just laugh.* - Reniece
Here y’all go again with the foolishness. Why is this even a question that we have to discuss?
The answer is your wife goes first and if your husband/wife says otherwise you might want to get a divorce.
The main conflict in the viral video circling social media surrounded on whether or not the wife or the mother-in-law should get to sit in the front passenger seat if the husband was driving.
I don’t really understand why this matters especially if you are going to the same location.
The situation was so ludicrous and we were just confused by the entire video. In the video, the husband was driving with his mother in the front seat and he went to pick up his wife. His wife demanded that his mother move to the back seat which caused the argument in the first place.
Both the mother and wife were super disrespectful to each other and the wife even called his mother a B!TCH.
Not only is seating insignificant but the situation was not serious enough to call anyone, especially your mother-in-law, out of their name. The husband also needed to stick up for his wife, at no point did he try to defend her from his mother’s verbal attacks. TRASH.
Now, if both individuals are getting into the car at the same time, then typically the wife should be sitting in the front passenger seat. Overall, the biggest issue is not the seat placement but the principle behind it. I think that if a situation is bad enough to argue over seat placement, there’s deeper issues.
Please do not marry into a family where you cannot even behave civilly. Not everyone's family will like you and that’s okay but you should be able to leave your future children with them without your child being badly affected by your relationship. Also, who wants to be a part of a family that hates them?
Speak to your significant other about the priority of your relationship before you marry them: personally, we believe it should be God first followed by children, wife, and other family members, in that order.
It is vital to any relationship that you understand your position and place your expectations accurately.
Your significant other should reassure you of your position in their life and should do so privately AND PUBLICLY, beginning with family members. They should defend you when that position is being threatened.
When tensions rise, do NOT give your significant other an ultimatum to pick between you and their family. They may come to resent you or you may suffer a heartbreak.
Try to have patience and walk away when able. Discuss the situation after tensions have cooled.
Let your significant other handle his family and only step in when absolutely necessary
If you do not feel defended or protected by your significant other, just leave because this will permeate every aspect of your life together.
The most important thing to remember Brainiacs is to COMMUNICATE about all aspects of your relationship before you enter into a marriage. If you aren’t comfortable then you need to fix it BEFORE the wedding.
