Background: I have "settled" status, due my parents claiming asylum in the uk. As a result of my countries history, my family are spread across the world.
One relative lives in Texas and has invited me over in the summer as other members of my family are travelling there. I actually have 2 weeks annual leave already. I started making travel plans and realised quickly my journey from start to finish will be around 18 hours. Therefore would need to go for a minimum of 9 days to spend a week there. All I would need to pay for is flights and dinner one evening. My family are very hospitable!
DP is becoming increasingly annoyed at my plans, as we have a 4 year old child together and "he will be stuck at home". He has been invited, but does not want to go. I don't feel able to take my 4 year old child on a 18 hour journey on my own.
I REALLY want to go. It is a bit like a family reunion, but in part of the world I've never been to. I've always wanted to go to America, DP has no interest whatsoever. He thinks I'm being vvvv unreasonable for even considering it.
AIBU to go to Texas for 10 days on my own?
