Her reactions may be negative when you decide to stop worry about how she'll react and just do what is right for you.
So at first my MIL let me know they planned to go to dinner on mother’s Day. I did not confirm or deny. The next day I asked “when are you guys going to Mother’s Day dinner”. My W replied “what do you mean, we are all going as a family”.

When did we as Husbands start making our W's or the girl our passion? Where has that gotten us? Why do we make the women of our lives our passion and neglect ourselves and our purpose?
I think I understand now, how making something about you, or doing what you love, your passion, wether it be your career, your hobby, your children, whatever. Does anyone ever get the feeling that our W's don't respect us either because they are wayward, but more so, you ever notice women follow guys who lead for the sake of their own passion? And that you have to be willing to walk away from them to find and fulfil your purpose, take control if your life, and live for yourself. Its no wonder some of them lose their identies around 38-45. They want more out of life than just marriage whether it be a new life, a new identity, a new place to live, and for the emotionally insecure, and a new OM?
Hey IHCLACS, I’m a few beers deep at the moment but you are god damn right! Our women follow us at first when we lead our own lives. When we settle down with our W they slowly lose interest as we lose our individual drive and mesh our lives with them. They then become interested again when we show them we don’t need them and can lead our own lives again. Interesting psychological view on our stitches!
Another R talk with W tonight but I’m kinda drunk so I’ll save for tomorrow. I handled very well I wanna think.
