[quote=Anonymous]SO frustrated with spouse right now. Here's the scenario: long weekend. Two kids. I suggest we get out of town for some time away with kids and chance to enjoy being out of the city. He says I don't want to do suggestion A, B, or C; I want to stay in DC so I can go into the office over the long weekend. (He does not usually work weekends, so this is news to me.) I say okay, then I'm fine going somewhere with kids by myself. He counters with "but I never get to do anything with the kids and I don't want to miss out on the fun stuff!" Well, YOU DON'T WANT US TO DO ANY FUN STUFF. YOU WANT US ALL TO SIT HOME SO YOU CAN SPEND TIME IN THE OFFICE. I have no idea what the compromise position is here. The kids stay home and get to do nothing different than same old same old, so he doesn't miss out? There is no offer of going some other time; it's just "I don't want to, so no one should because then I might miss what I don't want to do anyway." Help.[/quote]
