I like my pil, we’re not super close but we get on well. Since the birth of DS now 10 months old, my husband has been wanting to spend more and more time with his parents. I understand he wants them to have a close relationship, but we don’t spend that much time with my parents! I suppose I can see from this extra time that DS is more comfortable with his parents, and I want him to have that relationship with mine, who are equally lovely. It’s causing resentment in me and coming across to him that I don’t want to see his parents, which isn’t the case.
Also I’d like to spend a bit of time each weekend with our parents, but mostly prioritise time as the three of us. But he doesn’t seem bothered by that, instead suggesting spending hours with his parents on a weekend.
I know it’s a good thing he wants to see them and I only hope my DS wants to see us when he’s all grown up! So I shouldn’t feel too annoyed, but I do. Perhaps I’m being unreasonable and am fully willing to be told that I am.
So aibu to feel this way? And either way, how can I resolve this with my marriage intact and happy?
