My lovely DH is turning 40 in March. He has said that he does not want a party. I know that when some people say this they really want one but I know this is not the case for him. He would hate all the attention. He says he just wants to have a night out with a very small group of friends. He specified no family. All of this was ok by me even though I would have liked to throw him a party.
My MIL is irritated that I am not throwing a party even though I have explained the reason why. She is now saying that if I don't throw a party that she will throw him a suprise party. She throws the worst parties and probably won't invite any of our friends.
So do I let her throw a party he will really hate or be pushy with him and tell him I really want to throw him a party that I know he will at least enjoy a little. I can't tell him about what his mom has said because then she will accuse me of ruining a suprise.
I usually get on so well with MIL and I really love her so I don't want this to turn nnasty.
Please help!
