Jealous uncle
Posted by Adie on January 6th, 2010. Filed under: Family Matters.My uncle is a very jealous person. I think it stems from the fact that he’s away from his family, working abroad to provide a better future for them. He checks on his wife every half hour or so. It’s not that he doesn’t trust her. He just wants to make sure that she’s with their kids and not out gossiping with their neighbors. His wife is known to do that from time to time so I can understand where he’s coming from.
Last night, his wife and two of their four kids were here at home. My uncle called twice asking if his wife was really here. I was left scratching my head, embarrassed for my aunt. I think it’s out of line for my uncle to check on his wife in front of his relatives. Younger relatives at that. It’s just downright insulting and humiliating for my aunt. Good thing my aunt just laughs it off. But if it’s a different person, that would probably mean war already!
