Maybe it’s just me but I don’t enjoy visiting my in-laws practically 3 times every month, thats not including anniversaries, graduations, baby showers, house warming parties, children birthdays, etc... 🙄

Ive even hosted dinners in our home last thanksgiving and another special occasion that I invited them to just to show my wife I’m making an effort too.

However, she doesn’t seem to understand that I don’t enjoy going every time to her parents or brother’s house. I told her that it’s okay for her to go without me sometimes but she’ll always give the guilt trip and it become a lengthy conversation because I said I don’t want to go.

I know she and her family are tight knitted but they also are different from me and my own family. My wife doesn’t seem to realize that she doesn’t have to endure seeing my side of the family due to the fact I moved to her home state my family is in New York City.

And even if the roles were reverse, I wouldn’t make her feel obligated to go with me to see my parents every single time they have an event or celebration. It’s not necessary, and although my family is close to one another, we don’t need to physically see each other all the time in order to feel tight knit.

I just enjoy my space from my in-laws time to time. I never imagined that I’d be seeing them this often and them too much in our business more then I’d like.

Am I wrong for feeling this way or am I asking for too much??
