I have one small thing that has been bugging me too. Easter is Sunday and I made it very clear I have no plans for Easter and will be all alone. he has not invited me to Easter dinner. I don't even know if his parents are hosting it or not. it kind of hurts, I haven't really met them yet, and I though an invite would be nice, but I haven't brought it up.
First of all you can always come spend it with us. BUT I think this sounds kind of conflict avoidance.
Men are not mind readers. Ask for what you want and don't think he intuitively knows it. I am sure he doesn't.
First, thank you very much for the invite. My dad did invite me but I have 2 papers due on sunday and I just couldn't afford the travel time. However, I do hope to be able to meet up with you guys soon. We should grab some sush:)
I was afraid I might be avoiding conflict and not being direct, but I couldn't figure out how to ask about it without making myself sound like I am inviting myself to his family easter. I was raised to never invite myself places, lol.
However, I do plan on telling him that I was hurt I wasn't invited to Easter dinner and I will ask him if there was a particular reason why. I do know his family is going through some major stuff with his sister going through a very complicated divorce right now.
I am going to tell him I want to meet his parents, take them out, and officially thank them for letting us use the condo for vacation. I will tell him in a direct and concise manner!
On another sad note. D9 was asking my yesterday if her father was "born with problems" I asked her what she meant. She compared him to a friend's son who is on the spectrum (and is her age) who pretty much gets in trouble all the time for acting out. I almost died. What do you say to that?
Even last night I said whens he was getting fresh with me while trying to learn how to ride her bike "Do you want Daddy to teach you?" she said "Oh my god no, all he will do is yell and scream at me!!"
