[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here--DH and I both work equivalent jobs, so not like I have extra bandwidth. I get along enough with his family, but we aren't close. Don't see them much. In fairness, he isn't close to them either. They are traditional, though, so they will look down on us as a family (and probably more me than him) if there are no gifts/cards from us. [b]It does create awkwardness.[/b] Plugging all of this into his calendar sounds like a good idea. [/quote] This is something you can work on. It's only awkward if [b]you [/b]are feeling it. You are only responsible for your feelings, no one elses. If anyone says anything to you, put your mask of blitheness on and remark that your DH is responsible and then ask about the local pro sports team. I'm indifferent about you plugging dates into his calendar. Whatever makes you feel better. [/quote]
