– Robert came home from work yesterday, all stiffed up. I asked him about the wedding, and he looked down at once. He said that tomorrow he would only buy tickets for himself…
– What about you?
– I was speechless. And my husband says to me, “Honey, I got my naked salary in January. “We had a New Year’s Eve celebration that was so bad that my mom couldn’t believe it. So I’ll probably go to Jack’s wedding by myself. You take care of your daughter. Nothing bad will happen. And I still have three days there to live in a hotel and eat something. And, of course, to buy a present for the bride and groom,” she told her friend.
Kate and Robert were a young family. They lived in a one-room apartment in the capital. The mother-in-law decided to give them a place to live. Kate was on maternity leave. Her daughter was almost two years old. But she did not rush to work. There was no one to leave her daughter with. The parents-in-law provided the couple with an apartment, so, as they say, thank goodness for that.
And Kate’s mother, Maria was taking care of herself, plus she was working. The woman immediately told her daughter that if she needed to urgently babysit her granddaughter, she would definitely come. But to let Kate buy a new dress, dye her hair, no way. As they say themselves gave birth, let them do it.
Kate was well aware of her mother’s character. By the way, Maria flew abroad every year. In addition, the woman spent all her weekends in beauty salons and massage parlors.
There were no force majeure situations between Kate and her husband. They solved everything together. When her husband was at home, the girl went about her business and vice versa. True, her husband was not particularly happy and let his wife go out rarely and for a short time. There were plenty of reasons for Kate to come home quickly.
But here came the invitation to the wedding. Robert’s younger brother had decided to get married. It was necessary to go to another city for three days. Kate went to her mother to ask her to babysit her granddaughter. After all, a wedding is a big deal. Nothing can happen to mom in three days. The more so the girl is fairly calm, not shouting and not capricious for nothing.
Mom refused for a long time, and then with a sigh she took three days off from work. Kate was glad. After all, she was tired of spending two years with a child. At least she’d get some rest at the wedding…
But her rosy dreams came crashing down after her husband’s announcement. It was a big event for the girl. She breastfed her baby for a year without leaving home. Then it turned out that no one wanted to sit with her. And her husband often went to corporate parties, went on business trips. As they say to be free.
Of course, the girl didn’t know his brother very well. She had only seen her fiancée in her photo. Kate was very upset. But her husband didn’t want to understand her. He thought that everything was right.
– Well, honey, first of all, your mother is not very happy to take her granddaughter with her. Let her rest a little these days, and you sit. Why make a person uncomfortable. If she doesn’t want to sit, don’t. And you don’t really know my family. What’s the point of this trip for you? Your business is to stay home and take care of the baby. I’m going there and back.
Kate decided no one was going. Why should her husband decide what she should do?
And you, who do you think is right in this situation? Personally, I think Kate’s mom and her husband are getting a little cocky. Of course, Maria doesn’t have to babysit her granddaughter. But you can think not only about yourself but also about her daughter. And her husband does not understand his wife. She spent so much time with her daughter. She needs to rest, too. He needs to understand that if he truly loves his wife…
Kate in this situation is very sorry and understandable. She is totally dependent on her husband. She has no one to help her. It would be interesting to hear what the readers have to say. And in general, we hope that Kate will be able to solve the problem and give her husband her opinion on the matter.
Dear girls, remember we have a free country! You can give your opinion, nothing will happen. It’s not like her husband will file for divorce if Kate conditions it on him. And even if that happens, it means that these feelings are not sincere. You should respect other people and give them joy.
