Husband came round to spend Christmas with us yesterday (i.e me, my parents and DD), walked in at 7pm and announced that his parents were visiting tomorrow and that he would be taking DD at 5pm today to his flat. I was a bit taken aback as we had made other plans for my sister to visit wit pressies etc and tried to discuss with my parents a way round it. Also, taking into account that he has not made any effort this year and has not decorated his flat...so not a brilliant festive environment, especially as our two yr old DD loves all the decorations and lights!
Tried to compromise, but he went apeshit and started having a go at me, and my parents and basically saying how selfish we were. Started screaming and swearing at me and basically runied the whole of Christmas as he still stayed over until 4pm today.
All I told him was that I thought it was unreasonable to ask us to change plans with less than 24 hours notice at Christmas. My Mum and Dad were stunned as he totally lost it and they have never seen him like that, although, he denies that he lost his temper (ermmmm hello!). He has just phoned and is acting all sweetness and light. He is having DD all day tomorrow as we had already planned. I now officially hate him!
