Sounds like in your family, you play good cop, mrs. plays bad cop…
Me, it's the other way around. BTW: don't feel bad. I've been feuding with my neighbor over the past 2 weeks. Long story short, neighbor decides to do landscaping without getting necessary approvals from HOA or neighbors. Decides to plan trees all over the place, some with roots that are very destructive. Me try to play nice and say, these roots are going to damage both our homes. When neighbors wife ignores, Mr Fat Lazy Union blows up in front of neighbor, threatens to report them to the HOA, report them to the city for cutting down a city tree, reporting them to both the HOA and city for putting in a built in bbq without using a licensed contractor, and on and on and on.
My wife of course, plays good cop, and tells them "He's usually a nice guy….Must be that time of month again." Lol
Wife's constant question to me these days: "Can we move to a bigger place where the neighbor isn't so close? It might be good for your health, dear."
