Get MIL and SIL on the phone and work out a way to get you and the truck together.
They drive it over, they pick you up and take you to where the truck is.

Odd that MIL and SIL are not at least advocates for your child.


They don't like me. Today was a victory for them. Strife was caused in our marriage and they view that as a win.

Honestly his family doesn't like me. They think my goal is to keep DH from them. To them, I'm the birch who stole DH and keeps him from them. He sees them weekly and he even sees his dad throughout the week but no no that's not enough. We've been married 6 years


This is some weird stuff! Are they of some different background? It is like you aren't even his family! What are the positives about your DH? It is clear that his parents don't need to cut the cord and your DH is fully attached to them as if he is a 4 year old. Is he an only child? Which still doesn't excuse his behavior. Plus, you live so close to them they could be your support system, and not "his other partner." So, he is cheating on them with you??

Plan something for yourself for next Sunday and tell your DH he's in charge of your son for the day. Don't take no for an answer. You've been letting this go on for six years and its time you put a stop to it.

You're rightly furious and he's totally disrespectful.

Sounds like you don't know how to stand up for yourself so go to therapy. Individual or couples or both.

And he couldn't just drive his car back to you with his dad following in the truck? I'd be on my last straw with that one.

This subject merits a serious talk before things get worse.


Agreed. Dh's priorities are off. I'd be pissed.

+1 Spending EVERY Sunday with his parents? Not ok. He needs to realize that the family he created with you is now the priority.

Yep, he took our only car we have right now. To make matters worse, I even asked him to have his dad pick him up. He said no because he had to help get the boat ready etc. So our truck is 10 minutes away just sitting in his dad's driveway. They took his dad's truck.


I would be past livid.


+1


+1, but I really mean +1M! Please don't have another child with this person.

Was this issue not obvious before you got married? I realize that doesn't help today but this is likely yet another cautionary tale to not ignore the "little" things before marriage, as they will absolutely become the big things after marriage.
