[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the OP. Is there any wiggle room allowed for me here? Am I allowed to be upset that I have to go straight from daily phone calls to no contact at all for 2 weeks? That's a drastic change from what I'm used to and I just wish there was some middle ground for compromise. I wish that DILs on here remember that yes they are married and the wife should definitely be the most important woman in her husband's life but his mother doesn't go out the window just because he is married. My feelings still matter too. [/quote]

At some point when you talk before the vacation, say something like: "Have a great vacation. I like to hear how you're doing, so I'd appreciate if you could give me a quick call or send a note at some point during those weeks, but if not, we'll catch up when you come home." Leave it up to him.

I'm a middle-age man with an older, single mother who I talk to every day or two. When I'm traveling, it's less frequent, but when I have 5 minutes in the evening I'll give her a call. [/quote]
