This isn't just once in a while. If you read my post correctly you would have seen I said every other Friday she expects him to [b]drop[/b] everything leave me at home and have dinner with her. That's pretty often to leave out his wife. This isn't alone time it's with his sister his dad its basically saying twice a month they are going to have the whole family out to dinner and recreate the family of origin while excluding me. Yes that's hurtful. I wouldn't let her grandchildren see her I said not because she doesn't take me out for spa days and whatnot but because she excluded their mother from family events and doesn't respect my role as wife. Once you marry your spouse becomes the most important person and they come first. I just don't see many grown men spending one on one time with their mother especially leaving out their wife.

Like I stated she is the type once I provide her with grandchildren she will suddenly include me more which shows she only sees me as an incubator for her grandchildren. Does your husband's mother ever call him up and say she just wants him to come for lunch or dinner and not you?

Drop everything? What is there to drop? You don't have kids. You don't have livestock (I assume).  Are you running an ICU? Really, I want to know what is there to drop in a house with one grown healthy woman.

It's an expression not meant to be taken literally. My point being I don't understand how people on here thinks it's ok for his mom to call him up and say that they are going to repeatedly have a family dinner every other Friday and expect him to leave his wife who is the main member of his family. That just doesn't happen in normal families. I can't imagine any of my friend's husband's saying hey I'm going to dinner with my parents and siblings and this is going to take place every other Friday. My friends would probably be like ok great I don't have to cook or whatever they would say and then the looks or reactions on their faces when their husband says well sorry dear you aren't invited. I can tell you it certainly wouldn't be ok honey go have fun. It would be umm no I'm your wife that's ridiculous.

The sad part is his 84 year old grandma always included me from the start into the family and made me feel like a member of the family. Would never leave me out of dinners. His 84 year old grandma who is from a much different generation accepted me when we were dating. [/quote]
