I love writing poems to my wife. Recently I made one about how much I admire her for all she does at work but also for me and our kids. I sent it to her as an encouragement as I know work has been tough and she loved it. She started to cry and was so happy about it.
Today she mentioned that she wanted to post it on mothers day which is in one week in my country. But then she said that she didnt want to post but wanted me to post it.
This made me nervous for two reasons. 1. I wrote it in her native language which I speak but I am not really good at it. At times I dont care about grammatical errors to make the poem rhyme. Since I know its just for her eyes I know she understands and she has never complained about it. But now I am nervous because many will see it on facebook.
2. My mom may take it bad. I am not having the best relationship with my mom right now. One reasons is her constant critizising of my wife and how me and my wife run our house. Specially with our special needs kids. We havent cut off her or my dad mostly because they do help us out a lot and we rely on them for a lot of things. My mom was a great mom when we grew up and did a lot for us. My dad was absent or always angry.
So I am afraid that she will be upset when I post about my wife on mothers day. I shoudlnt care but it makes me a little nervous that our relationship with my mom and dad will get worse by this
I get stressed of putting things on facebook but I see that this means a lot to my wife

If you do do it, if you dont dont. Just do as you feel
If posting it makes you feel uncomfortable don’t do it. You wrote it for eyes, not to share it for the world. She only want to do it for fake social media likes.
