I had previously posted this questions and got very little response. So here is the cliff notes version:
My wife and I have been married for 3 years. no kids. Both 26 yrs old. Dated for 2 years prior to marriage.
Am I being unreasonable?
Once a month my side of the family gets together. This is the only time we are all together. Other than that we hardly go visit each other.
My wife dislikes the idea of us getting together. For the last 3 years I have asked her to go even though she was not comfortable. After many discussions about the situation I told her that if she didn't want to go with me than that was fine. That I would go by myself.
Now she is upset that I will go by myself. She wanted me to tel them that we both wouldn't go anymore. She feels that now my family will look bad at her for not wanting to go.
I don't think I'm being unreasonable. We go to her family's place at least 1 or 2 times per week.
What do you think?
