I just need somewhere to vent as DP won't hear me.
I'm really struggling. I dread EOW. I'm glad they feel at home here but it's my home too and Im not respected as a part of this family. I'm tired of treading on eggshells around DP who seems to undergo a personality transplant the moment they arrive. I can't say anything right and if I dare have anything negative to say I'm shot down as they can do no wrong in his eyes.
I really don't feel I'm asking too much and neither does DP when they aren't here and we are able to have a sensible conversation.
We've pretty much argued all weekend as small changes (bringing plates/glasses down from their rooms/flushing the loo/making their beds etc) have all been forgotten about. They do all this stuff at home but don't bother here. DP spends all weekend running around and picking up after them and then moans that he doesn't get a break and takes it out on me.
