[quote=Anonymous]Are his "fun" dinners out related to work?  I ask because both my husband and my best friend's husband seem to view anything work related as "not fun," even when the outing is enjoyable and with people they actually like, whereas my best friend and I tend to consider any dinner or outing with adults to be fun.  As a result, both sides can get annoyed when the husbands think they've been slaving away and and we think they've been having a blast and therefore everyone's expectations can get out of whack.  (For what it's worth, my best friend and I both work, we just don't travel for our jobs the way our husbands do).

I think you need to have a conversation with your husband about how he's viewing this situation and why he's upset.  My husband and I are so familiar in so many ways that I often forget that we don't think about things in the same way, so when there is a disconnect, we need to tell each other how we see things so that we can understand the other person's point of view.  Best case scenario, your husband has some valid reason for his feelings and just doesn't know how to express them, but you guys can come to an understanding and walk away with everyone happy.  Worst case scenario, your husband is a man child who is incapable of taking care of his own kid.  Either way, you need to find out what is causing him to give you a hard time about it.  [/quote]
