To feel sad

Just that. Feeling sad as husband doesn't want to go to a family birthday tomorrow (a toddler). He is going to drop off me and our son and go home. He hasn't got any siblings , just his 89 year old mum .

Why doesn't he want to go?

toomanycuddlytoys · 22/09/2018 17:26

He says he isn't interested

I don’t go to anything with my in-laws, but that’s because I hate being around them, with quite good reason - I’ve posted about it before on here and it’s a looooong story! Anywho, if I hadn’t said to dh though and been a bit less open he might think there was no problem. Could there be something going on that you don’t know about? Between your dh and your family?

DH wouldn't either tbf unless it was his GC.
Children's parties tend to be noisy and full.

Is he close to this child?

What about it doesn't interest him? I don't think toddler parties interest most people but you go because of the people you love and care about. Does he have issues with any of your family?

It's just going to be about 8 people, sadly he isn't close to anyone

Is he not close to them because he doesn't come to these events or in spite of?

Is there more going on here OP?

Presumably most of those 8 people aren't also toddlers? I think it's a bit sad that he doesn't want to spend time with your family. He doesn't have to be 'interested', he has to care about you and your family.
