To not wNt his entire family for Sunday tea around yet again?

[CarafeOfTheFinestWine]

Dh likes to invite his mum, dad, grownup kids and ex wife round for dinner every bloody Sunday. He doesn most of the work, though I end up helping and tidying up. The ex usually helps tidy up too.

I don’t mind it now and then but it’s every bloody week. Last week there was an extra 3 with hangers on .

It eats into the day and is expensive. I get he wants to see the kids who invite their mum otherwise she’d be ‘sat on her own’. I’d like to break the habit. I like and get on with them all, but they aren’t my family,,!,

I agree with pp - do his children actually want to go for lunch every sunday at their dad's. They are young adults, haven't they got more exciting things to do on Sunday? I just cannot imagine doing this as a young adult.

You went on holiday with ex?

I get on on with ex wife but wouldn’t want to go on holiday with her

Why did they get divorced

How long ago

How long have you been together

Honestly I think that you seem totally subservient to his past and present family. The Ex issue is important, as I think it shows you are not equal in your relationship. Does your Ex come too? Been on holiday with yours?

I think the majority of people who keep their exes so close they go on holiday with them are emotionally immature, and not able to form a boundaried relationship.
