DH is away with work this weekend, it's a good opportunity for him and he wanted to go. We had been invited to a charity event and we decided that as he was away, I would go on my own with friends. It wasn't a 'couples' thing, just a mixture of people with a common interest in the charity.

A friend put some photographs of the event on Facebook today and my friend's sister commented on them with a 'you all look like you had a great time, was Mr Pig not there?' She knew he wasn't going as I saw her a couple of weeks ago and mentioned it then. The next comment from her was 'Well done you, I don't think I could enjoy myself on a night out if I new my other half was working and I was on a jolly. Love that you can, I would just feel so guilty'.

It's really pissed me right off, but I may be hungover and sensitive!

I'd really want to reply "oh that's a shame - my happiness isn't dependent on others. That must be really hard for you. Want to talk?"
But the like with laughing face is the best response but no response advice!

Or say "Truly? I've heard that he can really enjoy himself when you aren't there" and add a 

(Well, perhaps not, but how tempting.)

I'm not very good at this quoting people but I love the above from a pp!

I'd be tempted to do a mock up of her DH dancing on a table, or one with a good back drop like vegas/moulin rouge/Amsterdam. Grin

But I'd reply 'that's SUCH a shame that you have to lead such a restrictive life. I'm so sorry Sad
