Its no wonder my DH is so fucking emotionally disfunctional.
It had been 5 weeks since we had been to his mums. They never come here (an hour away) and she never rings. In the 10 years we have been together, they have been here 4 times (excluding wedding and christenings)
I think he is more upset about this than he is letting on. She is fine when we are there and isn't 'funny' in any way, just doesn't seem to bother contacting us. I am having our third baby in 10 days and she didn't even know my date. (I have told her)
So, yesterday I got the kids in the car and said we were going and it was up to him if he came. He did, because I don't think he trusted me not to say anything.
I know I didn't have to break the 'standoff' but I just felt we should be 'bigger' and go and I didn't want to look like I didn't care IYSWIM.
He barely said a word.
Bloody families eh.
