What would you think if your husband’s long term friend and his wife invited him on his own to stay with them for holidays at their holiday home but not you?
They have form for being somewhat pushy and controlling.

I'd wonder if they didn't like me and whether or not I actually gave a shit about that. I'd also hope that my DH had my back and would decline the offer and tell them why.

Thanks@NotObligedToArgueWithStrangers my husband didn’t like it and has told me there is no way he would go unless they invite us both. However, he won’t tell them why as he never wants to rock the boat so to speak.
They’ve always seen me as an intruder(that’s how I’ve been made to feel over the years) and they’ve known my DH for longer than I have although we have been married for three decades nearly!

I would think... my DH better not f**king accept their invitation..

And that I would never invite them to or host them in my home. ever.
My DH could socialose with them outside our home if he was so inclined.
