Especially if that "excessive devotion" means that you caught her in a three way with her dad and her brother.

What Sparks says pretty much clears it up, as far as I'm concerned.

This didn't cause a divorce for me- but it did end a serious relationship where marriage was a possibility. . .she didn't think it was a problem that she called them every night at 10pm. . .

It has made my life a hell. Any of my in-laws (her siblings or parents) has to just say anything about me or my actions then my opinion and reasoning does not count. Specially her sister has to just call her one time to ruin my whole week. I have not lived even a single week free of problems from in-laws in ten years of my marriage. Now I am ready to walk away even though I have two kids with her and she still does not agree that it is a problem for our marriage.

My advice to any young person who's thinking of getting hitched to anyone who's too closely attached to a parent/parents is to bail out NOW!! By this I mean: they're on the phone to eachother at least once a day if at university the offspring goes home every weekend the offspring always take notice of what the parent says the offspring will drop everything when the parent asks for help etc including a date with YOU if female the offspring's best friend is her mum if male and the offspring's best friend is HIS mum, ditch him because he's most likely a poof anyway the offspring still goes on holidays with parent(s) beyond the age of 17 the offspring will not stand for even the gentlest criticism of parent I speak as a man with two divorces and two other engagements behind him. Incidentally, I've been with my third wife six years...and she has no parents!

When your spouse puts his family's needs and desires before you, it's time to pack up your marbles and go back home.

It's up to each couple to respect the bonds of family ties. What happens when you get divorced? You run right to those who care for you -- YOUR FAMILY IDIOT! If there is friction between the marriage partner and family, go to therapy quickly. Each partner MUST show their respect to the other partners family. PERIOD.

Your parents will get along just fine without you. Now go and do something cool and nice for your spouse, I know tell them you love them.

In my eyes and my own personal situation, if my wife spent as much time with me as she does with her mother (my mother in law), then I might actually find out who she really is. The whole family are priority over me, and Im only used if any DIY is needed. Can't wait to get out.

This reason is more common than many think. There comes a time when a person has to leave the parents house. When you're married, your primary concern has to be towards your spouse and kids. It's not a matter of picking sides. Otherwise, you have competition for affections and that's not good.
