[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.

Thanks for the responses. You are right - it is absolutely the right thing to go. I never said I wouldn't go, just that I don't want to.

I honestly wonder sometimes if I'm better off being alone. DH is SO close with his family to the point that it annoys me. I've really really enjoyed the lack of forced participation in his family and have loved my time alone. I can do what I want, when I want and not have to answer to or appease anyone.

I honestly don't know if I'm cut out for marriage. [/quote]

That is an entirely different issue all together.  I say this as someone very close to my family and am glad my husband is close to his as well, but I also see the other side as it drives me nuts when either family expects instant access to the kiddo or think they can take over an entire weekend with their plans. When I was single, I'd spend weeks not really talking to people or going out, and am so so grateful my husband realizes how much I need an hour or so to myself on occasion.  So if his closeness annoys you to the point of wanting to be single again, then time for a talk/therapy. [/quote]
