[quote=Anonymous]DH might just be reacting because the visits are hard on him too. Or he might feel pressure to explain your absence. To be clear, neither of these things obligates you to stick around. You are entitled to have your plans and to stick to them. He also needs to have his boundaries about what he will and will not tolerate from his family and stick to those. It's tough, and, while you can certainly be empathetic, it's not your job to fix his relationship with his family or any stress he may feel around that. Also, someone else's anger/irritation is never a requirement that you act to ease their feelings. [/quote]
