I have posted about this before. Dh used to be really close to his family snd see his uncle regularly. Since covid he hasn't seen him once. He got in touch a month or two ago and said he wanted to visit and it was all friendly and loose plans was made to catch up soon. I was very keen to see them too.
However it's been two months and when I ask dh it's always "after the holiday, after kids birthday, after xyz.
I'm.coming round to the realisation it's not my family, dispite know the uncle for 35 years it's not my family.
Uncle lives near my mum so we did go down often. But mum died recently and we won't be popping by ever again as its a few counties away. I feel sad but it's not my call to make is it?
I feel really sad about it. My dh has over the past 7 years or so dropped all contact with every single member of his family.
Not sure why I even feel this way. But rather than stewing on it I know I need to put it behind me. Once mums house sells I will never have reason to go there.
I know mums death is a good natural end to expect dh to stay in touch. But I can't go on my own either because people will think it's weird dh isn't there
