Just a rant really. DH is a great husband and father but this is really frustrating now.
We are planning to go on holiday soon. Our last as a family of three. So what does DH do? Invites his mum! I get on with her fine but that doesn't mean I want to spend a week with her! And more to the point - he didn't ask me first. As it turns out his dad is now coming so I feel better about it and it transpires that DH knew if he invited her she would pay for it which she has (almost) said she will.
Today we spoke about going to some garden near us that only open 3/4 days a year. I go for a shower and when I get out he announces that his mum is coming. He does this all the time! I asked if he was trying to avoid spending time just us and why he always has to invite his mum and just said "I thought she would like it". I wouldn't mind half as much if he at least asked me first!
I just wondering how to approach this now with him without sounding like I hate his mum which really isn't the case. It is just that we get at best 6 good days a month to spend as a family unit and it is frustrating when he does this.
P.s his mum is not a lonely old women, she is late 50's, still works, has friends etc and he sees her at least once a week and speaks to her 3-4 times a week.
