[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’ve been married for 11 years and I’m the one to make all the plans with my MIL: when she wants to come visit, when we go there, etc. She’s 2 hours away and we see her every few months.

But I’m ready to pass the torch to my husband…but I worry we’ll never see her again. She won’t suggest an idea to meet…it’s usually me making the plans. Husband literally along for the ride.

I’m just ready to pass with on…get it out of my headspace. But then will my headspace be filled with “why isn’t he arranging a meet up?”[/quote]

So what you are saying is you want to designate your husband as your appointments secretary for the couple of times a year you contact his mom to schedule visits which probably consumes 30 seconds of your time.  Visits which apparently no one but you care too much about.

Sounds like you are doing a fine job the way things are.  If you don't want to do it anymore, stop.

But what you can't do is stop doing it and order your husband to start.doing it.  If he wants to, that's up to him.  If he doesn't want to, also up to him.[/quote]
