So my husband and I’s relationship is going through a really rough time right now.

Long story short, he got a new job- working 3 hours away, only coming home on the weekends. I work full time as a teacher and am taking care of our 5 month old by myself. It’s hard, but I’m doing it and I love the quality I get with our daughter.

She was in daycare up until two weeks ago when my mom came for a week and now his mom is here for a week.

During this past 6 weeks while he’s been working away, we bought a house back in our home town where he is currently working. Which has been a stressful process and I’ve been doing all the work for it.

We were happy to move away three years ago to get away from family drama (mainly his). His family is super messed up and unreliable.

I never really had a relationship with them before we moved out here and we’ve seen them a couple times a year since moving away.

His mom has been here this week and he wanted us to build a relationship. I’m still working full time, packing my classroom, and trying to pack the house since we move next week. I have about an hour of time at home to sit and eat dinner and hang out. It’s super awkward and we have simple conversations, but that’s about it.

My husband is super mad at me because I haven’t put in enough effort to becoming bffs with his mom. I have a hard time with his family because of their issues and how they have been in the past. I’m super grateful for the help this week, I’ve gotten a lot done, but it’s not like we’re going to just become bffs over night.. and the point of her coming out wasn’t to spend time with me and do stuff together.

I probably sound awful.. I hope someone out there can relate and understand.. but seriously my husband yelled at me and won’t talk to me because I didn’t put in enough effort.

I’m not superwoman. He chose to have her come out here, I didn’t ask, he just decided.

If you read this whole thing, you’re a champ lol rant over
