This man is currently married, and apparently, his in-laws do absolutely everything with him and his wife. Wherever they go, his in-laws are right there with them.
So, most evenings, his in-laws come over to their house. Plus, all four of them usually spend most weekends together.
“And while it is adorable, I would like some time alone with my wife,” he admitted.
So, he recently decided to book a little vacation for just the two of them – since they haven’t been able to go away on a trip since prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. He hoped this vacation would help them get some time away from their typical, hectic schedules.
Yet, after he told his wife about the getaway and stressed that he wanted to have some time for just them, she did something he never expected. More specifically, she actually invited her parents on the trip with them!
Once he found out about that, he knew he needed to speak to his father-in-law, too.
“I politely said to my father-in-law that I could use some much-valued time away with my wife and [asked] if they would mind sitting this one out,” he recalled.
Well, his father-in-law actually just became offended by that, and the whole conversation blew up in his face. According to him, neither his wife nor her family understand his perspective.
“Which was literally, ‘I love having you guys around, but I would love some time alone with my wife,'” he said.
