I could have posted this in AIBU but here goes.....my adult son is moving with his wife to where her family live, a few hours away from us. I am thrilled that he will hopefully get the life style he wants, and I love my DIL (so tha'ts not it....). However, I feel I am losing him. We don't see him a great deal now as he lives the other side of the city but I know that when he gets down there he will be 'absorbed' into her family and we will see even less of them. She has quite a large family and I know he enjoys being part of it; he only has one brother though. He is quite lazy anyway, and I sometimes feel even now he only comes to see us or makes contact because he needs advice or help or DIL suggests it! Is this is just what sons are like? I have a busy life so its not that, and I don't want to sound needy.
