Has anyone have any conflicts when your husband who is a mummy's boy tend to agree to his mother rather his wife?

I had and many times because my husband makes me do whatever his mother says to me

Then how would you say if his brother is sleeping with the mother. We just bought a new house with 5 bedrooms. Only 4 of us stay in the house, i.e the brother, mother in law, my husband and myself. So my husband and I got a room. The mother got her room. My brother in law has his own room. However he only stores his clothes in the room. He has a bed in his room. But at night time, he will go to his mother's room and slept with her. He is only 33 years old. He has no girlfriend at this age. And he has never had a girlfriend at all and has never dated anyone. Will this brother in law be ever with his mother for long? When shopping, he will hold his mother's hand and walked in stores hand in hand. What do you think. Is this family not too much attached to the mother and not able to break through when they get older?

Didn't you know this before you married him? I think it is sad that when a boy or man is close to his mother they are called 'mummy's boy'. My son is very close with me as we don't have another parent and I would hate that he gets called this when he is a man by his girlfriend or wife and then stops visiting me! I think you need to separate the issues you have with your husband from how he feels about his mother,there may be good reason he is agreeing with his mother as this is how he thinks too. You need to work our your differences or leave.
