If you don't you will very likely slip into a comfortable domestic rut and your husband will very likely find someone else to accompany him to functions, so do this, it is your job, do it to the absolute best of your ability.
Send him a nasty e-mail.
That's what I did to my mother to get out of Christmas and I haven't had to go to anyone elses 'party' or even talk to much of anyone since.
Take some laxatives and say you have some sort of gastric flu.
well why world they do that need talk to your husband about this
I apologize if this is in the wrong category, yahoo doesn't have the best sections as we know.
So my Husband told me about this dinner party his company was having and I was up for it, until he didn't know when it was and literally sprung everything on me last minute. He said I had to get fitted for a dress which was out of my character. It's one of those events where you have to watch your every move & words and gowns have to be floor length and I basically have to pretend to be something I'm not. He didn't let me know anything in advanced even when it came down to who will take care of our boys (1 year old & 8 month old) & he rushed everything without my approval let alone my consent. He gave me the number to this lady who deals with the dresses & I made a lot of honest attempts to contact her but she never answers her phone. So I was like cool, i'm not going to stress this but then my husband goes and contacts others "What did you do for an emergency dress" like what the hell!! He found out the day to this event on the due date of paying the fee. 2 Guys came to our door ready to collect the money, my husband ran out of the house to the ATM and went to their office to pay, not saying anything until he came back, meanwhile I still never agreed, so I've been sour about it since. Then he brings home a paper for daycare which wasn't going to happen in time, let alone I don't want my children in day care. So then he's asking people who aren't attending if they can baby sit and someone agreed and I wasn't told about it until he asked me to answer his phone. I've only met this person & their spouse once, they didn't give me a horrible impression & the spouse is certified in dealing with children but they smoke, which I don't want around my children and I know nothing about them honestly. This event is tomorrow and all we have been doing is arguing (not even about the dinner party) and I already know this can be a lose-lose situation. If we don't go, he'll argue about that. If we do go, he'll find something to argue about on the way home on how "I could have did this" and what not. There's no honest way in telling him how much I don't want to go because he gets offended very easily and blows things out of this world, making things what they're not. I don't want him upset, I just want a way that he wont take it personally on me not wanting to go. Any answers are appreciated.
