Do you care if you DH replies to your parents' emails/msgs?

I know its annoying, but it can be let go right??
Just ask ur DH to reply to the email.DH must have thought ok i received the articles and thats the end, few people dont have the habit of replying to mails sent by family members.

 

Don't sweat the small stuff! I receive so many emails a day and something forwarded (such as the article your mum sent) never gets a priority to reply. I don't reply all my MIL's emails and don't expect her to say thank you for every email I send her. And, my MIL and I are sort of buddies. Keep your expectations low and be happy!

 

Do u have ur dh's password?

If its bothering u so much, just say thank you from his account. Problem solved.

 

I would gently suggest dh to reply and then leave it at that. He is an adult and decide how we wants to manage his relationships.

Just as I wouldn't want constant reminder about how I should be talking to his mother either :thumbsup

 

Agree with Anamolai. I also noticed your another post re your dh keeping everything that his mum sents and you found that weird. Well, he may find your constant reminders weird as well. And in my opinion, unless someone really writes an email (say for instance, your mom asked him a question, wrote things about jow they're doing, anything of personal sort), any other information (thst includes articles) falls in 'not so important' category. BTW, why do you check your mom's email?

 

Sharing articles or some links.. that doesn't need a reply.. yes, if its proper mail then your DH must answer..

 

Klniha,

While you have your reasons for why you are doing this, I think you should stay off your DH's inbox, as such petty thinks bother you so much. If you keep micro-managing, at one point he would lock you out. Please use your liberties sensibly.

Checking his emails to make sure some major/critical emails do not get missed out is Ok. (like bill payments or builder notices etc) But, this level of scrutiny would make anyone uncomfortable. Please take a step back.

Cheers,
JM

 

Hun, for this kind of emails, don't bother. Don't be so aggressive in getting them to have a close relationship with each other. As long as both parties are cordial with each other, you have nothing to worry. Don't get into telling ppl what to do at a microscopic level. It will irritate them and may backfire.

Hang in there and chill
