AIBU to not tell dh im going away for a night?

My dc are 9 and 3 and I haven’t had a night away from them since they’ve been born. I’ve had evenings out with friends but not a night away.
Two of my best friends have been talking about having a night away in a city, maybe seeing a show and I want to go but I know dh wouldn’t ever agree to it.
He’s away on business for a fortnight in November and I’m tempted to leave the children with my parents for a night (they’d have them happily) and go and not tell him.

Wibu? I guess if he found out afterwards he’d be livid.

Afternoon, everyone,

We've been asked to post some links to advice and support on this thread, which seemed like a good idea.

Perhaps most importantly, here's our link to our Domestic Violence webguide in case any number there is of use.

We also have a piece here about coercive control and another on spotting the signs of an abusive relationship.

And we put this page together with the help of women's aid, which might be of interest for anyone who knows someone in an abusive relationship or even is just talking to them on the boards.

We appreciate that everyone wants to give the OP advice and support and that it all comes from a good place but we have had to delete a few posts that we felt were either victim blaming or just went a bit beyond 'advice'. We're sure the OP is grateful for all the responses but please do bear our talk guidelines in mind when posting and remember that someone's situation is rarely quite as simple as it might appear from reading their posts, particularly when they're in a difficult or vulnerable situation.

OP, we're going to move your thread over to the Relationships board now. We wish you all the best.

Thanks, everyone.
