is it normal for my 38 year old husband to speak to his mother at least once a day? Sometimes even FIVE times a day?

Several times per day seems suspect, to me.
Under normal circumstances, If I talk with my mom 3 times/month, I think I'm doing OK (so does my wife).

Once, maybe but 5?! I would say maybe once a week or every two weeks is normal. Is she the one calling him or the other way around? Either way it doesn't sound healthy- if he's calling her it sounds like he's too insecure to figure things out on his own & needs her approval. If she's calling him it sounds like she wants to control her son and he's not putting a stop to that which is not good either. Have you said anything to him about it? His response should give you an idea of what the problem is.

you will desire to resign and think of of what you have at abode which incorporate your spouse. issues consistently seem greater effective on the different area of the fence yet that does no longer mean they're. You spoke greater relating to the female than something which exhibits loss of loyalty and honor on your spouse. An arranged marriage would desire to have some appreciate and you're making use of that subject as a manner of get away. you're perplexed and it isn't any ask your self those type of suggestions are driving you loopy. you have a son and you have been married for 9 years. What puzzles me is the incontrovertible fact that your "destiny lady" spent eleven years along with her boyfriend. and then he moved away. Arent you involved in that?

HECK NO... He needs to realize your the woman in his life now and let go of the need to have his mommy around. That is just crazy and I bet the mother has a lot to do with it!! I would talk to him and if he doesn't respond well, send a bright and clear picture to the mother in law that you are here to stay and back off, but try to be pleasant or that will upset the guy.

I call my mom everyday but, I'm 23 and I'm not married. I don't think its bad to call her everyday, because he wants to make sure she is ok. But 5 times a day does sound like a little too much. Maybe you should talk to him about why he feels the need to talk to her so much, try to understand him.

I think once a day is fine, especially if she is aging and your husband wants to check up on her. (brief conversation, not hours-long chat). I think five times a day is a little much, but I guess it depends on the reason.

it depends, every family is different. i talk to my mom about once a week but my husband talks to his mom alot more often. some guys just have strong bonds with their moms. i used to be annoyed by how often my husband talked to his mom but i finally just got over it. if you try to force him to cut back he will only resent you for it. but i have to agree 5 times is a little excessive! instead of arguing with him about how often he calls his mom, maybe you could encourage him to talk to you about his day at work, things that are bothering him, whatever. maybe if you show him that you can listen and be there for him he wont feel the need to call so much.
as a mom of boys, i do have to say that i hope my boys will want to call me often when they are grown! the thougth of only talking to them once a week makes me so sad!!!

I Think you should have a close relation with your mother because I am aware of the fact that she wants your best and she loves you.It is enough once a week!

well i think it matters how well she is. my dad visits my grandma once a day. and if he doesn't then he'll just call. but it's not a bad thing for once a day cause i mean it's his mother. but calling 5 times a day is a whole lot.

There is nothing wrong with speaking to your parent. You never want regrets when your parents die, these people raised you. What does it really hurt to speak to the people you love? Let his stay close to his mother, that does not mean he loves you any less.
