[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess if everyone unanimously agrees that I'm being overbearing and not respecting my son and his wife that I just got to accept that I won't hear from my son for 2 weeks. Maybe I'll plan an outing with some girlfriends one evening. I do work but it's part time. [b]I am married but my husband works a ton so we aren't around each other much[/b]. Maybe he can take some time off and we can do something like day trips or even an overnight trip ourselves.

I just wish it was my son who relayed the message to me and not my DIL.[/quote]

There it is.  You don't have a companion in your spouse and you are substituting in your son for the contact you crave.

Yes, you should plan an outing with girlfriends.  A whole lot more than you are currently.  Find something to fill the off hours if you only work part time.  You must have some interests that you can foster through volunteering.  Learn a craft.  Take a class.  Take up a new exercise.  You NEED to find something other than your son.
And God forbid they have a child anytime soon.  Your obsessive need to be included is going to be more harm than good.
