Partner visited for two days and was due to go home today. He decided today to stay tonight as it suits us both, even though we hadn't planned that. We won't see each other until next weekend.

His sister is unwell. Her husband is working late.. own business .Partner due to mind her kids tomorrow for the day. Husband not really involved in looking after his own kids.She needs lots of support as she is doing it in her own.
He text to ask what time she needed help from. She said this evening, despite the husband coming home after.

So he will leave mine to go back to mind their kids for an hour before husband comes home instead of staying here for another night.I actually think the husband comes home and does very little except watch tv and sleep. It's a strange situation.
I'm really pissed off with him.
His sister is really
Good to him and they are very close but I think that he does enough and has prioritised travelling over an hour to mind her kids for an hour ( rather than husband leaving work early which he could easily do) rather than staying here considering we won't see each other for another week.

Don't live together as our kids are living with us and we don't want a big blended family.

There is no issue with giving help now and again. For me There is an issue that he is a default Dad and husband, especially
When our time is rare and an unexpected night, a bonus.

‘our kids are living with us’: so he has his own DC (some of the time?) and you do too, in addition to him helping his sister?

@girlmom21 It's not sad at all.They respect that my relationship is an LAT type and we don't see each other all the time so it's actually respectful and mindful that I have a very small amount of time to myself with my partner.

@Loopytiles exactly. His older children live with him... in their twenties.
