[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is sort of like a three strikes, you’re out-type situation, only I don’t know how to proceed.

I realize I’ve been wrong in pushing my DH to be a “better” son to his mom who I now see isn’t a great mom. That was horrible of me. I should have seen the signs and not ignored my husband’s complacency, because it was telling me everything I needed to know.

I pushed DH to plan a brunch on Mother’s Day. When I asked if he had made plans already he shrugged and said “should I?” To which I encouraged him, and then MIL canceled. This happens quite often. My eyes are open now and I’m done.

Do I just stop suggesting? What happens when we don’t plan something and or show up empty handed (no gift, no hostess gift, etc, because DH didn’t put in the effort.) I will no longer be suggesting we attend things that I know my DH doesn’t want to attend, or conceive plans for events that he has otherwise ignored or forgotten, like Mother’s Day. I don’t even want to suggest (do you have plans, you should make plans, etc) because then I think he feels forced. [/quote]

You fall on your knees and beg forgiveness from your husband. Until you do that, nothing else matters. [/quote]
