Reading through all those things. I have one thing to say. You and your W have to get over it.
How your family chooses to act is their responsibility. A majority of points were what you and your W 'perceived' as insulting. Like the soup thing. I get it. I really do. But you know what? Who cares? If your mother doesn't want to make something for your W, then it's her choice.
Instead, your W decided to take these actions personally. AND what's worse is that you're trying to be the in between person. I understand all of that stuff you said about the Asian cultures, etc. But the bottom line is that you're not going to make everyone happy.
Decide on the type of man you want to be and go from there. Treat your family and your W under the guidelines that YOU believe in and not others.

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
