[quote=Anonymous][quote]If you heard about this situation, you'd probably think it sounds like a textbook case of depression/anxiety, right?[/quote] Your conclusion that your wife doesn't want to engineer your social life (in addition to being the primary parent, please call me out if I'm wrong), is that she's "depressed"? Take a look at how much of your life your wife already takes care of (who grocery shops, cooks, keeps house, plans vacations, does all the kid stuff? And does she also work?) and ask yourself if the roles were reversed, would you take on one more thing? Especially a thing that's supposed to be "fun"? Hanging out with her family is probably a godsend for her. It's always mystifying what men don't see. Until I remember that people are disincentivized to recognize a power dynamic in which they currently benefit.[/quote]
