I went for a little rollercoaster ride today. H asked me about having his family over for New Years Day. I had asked him about it on Christmas and he said do what I want. H seemed less than thrilled w/ idea so I said nothing to his family. His dad called a few days ago to ask about it and I said him and MIL could come over, but we weren't having everyone. Told H about this yesterday. Today he asks and is upset that I didn't say anything to the rest of HIS family. He is worried they will assume we are having it and show up. I told him I didn't invite them because I didn't want to pressure him to do something he wasn't comfortable w/. Told him they could come if he wanted. H said no, he just wanted to make sure they knew and thought we should call them. H seemed pretty upset w/ me but wouldn't communicate his feelings. I ended up calling MIL and she told me his brother was working and not to worry about his aunt. Shared this w/ him and then he was ok and thanked me for finding out the info.
When H left I was outside talking to him. H told me I better get inside before I got THOs. I told him it was too late. So he came over to look and play. Then he told me he better leave as he was getting excited. I told him playfully not to have someone else take care of that but to save it for me. Not what I expected a half an hour earlier.
