You have been married once, so u can understand fully what i mean. Its not just her, but yr parents and her and her family with you, all sorts of complications.
Agreed.
During the pak tall stage you get to see each other at most a few hours every day then you parted to be on your own back home is totally different from facing her also a few hours everyday but stay under the same roof.

Your mum's issue comes into picture, your budget for extra headcount for food, rice, toiletries, vege, PUB, all increase.
Not that money can solve everything, if your new wife and your mum abit different channel, then you will have to play a very sensitive and tactful role.

After a very stress work day..., meeting your love one for a beer outside carries an absolutely different meaning from going back home to your love one and reaching out for that beer in the fridge.
It is the same beer to a guy, but the gal are more concern of the purpose.
