A few months ago my husband decided we needed a holiday this year - not just a week somewhere in UK but 3 wks in Florida - villa, Disney etc etc. Nice idea but last year we nearly lost the house and he was nearly made bankrupt. We are still struggling with money and I said this at the time. As usual he said "well I'll be the one out earning the money etc etc". I work 3 days a week as I am registered disabled with a mobility prob and also with 3 dcs under 6 it isn't financially viable to work each day.

I said at the time not to tell the kids so as not to disappoint them if it happens that e cant afford to pay that amount (almost £8,000!) . He told the DCs anyway and I have been driven made with questions about bloody Mickey Mouse and Co ever since. He has told me he has been paying bits off every few weeks. A registered letter came this morning saying the outstanding balance of £6,900 not been paid so the holiday has been cancelled.

I was really annoyed at the fact he has lied about not paying bits off and that I will have to tell the kids we're not going. (Also I have had to cancel an op that would have improved my mobility issues because of this trip.) I explained all this to him and he went off his head shouting saing that I am so negative and that I am so unreasonable!
He then went an told the DCs we are not going to Florida "cos mummy doesnt want to go and cos of mummy's leg!" Cue 3 pairs of doe-eyed cherubs looking like I'd taken their ice-creams from them. I am so mad at him and now he is moaning "Are you still in a mood? How long do I have to put up with this etc etc?"
AIBU?

If he did that "gatecrash" thing, you should be telling him to feck off elsewhere for a few days so that you can think about your relationship.

Ally, tbh I'm thinking he's pretty shite! If he's worse than that you have very real probs! Sorry that you are having such a shit time!
