depends

is your sex life good?

than don’t be a dipshit and go

does she make excuses for not wanting sex or use it as a weapon?

if yes then gloves are coming off and i’ll do everything i can to not meet her “wants”




Stand your ground and tell her no. She needs to be told no and someone needs to stick to it.

Chase a check, never chase a bitch.

A good piece of pussy with shitty morals is worthless outside of being a cumpster.

Not sure why you can't just suck it up and use this to trade in for something else later in the year that she wouldn't want to normally attend.

She’ll remember this when she gets their inheritance. You won’t get a penny. Seems not worth the battle. You don’t have to stay at their house the whole time. You can go to movie by yourself, play golf, whatever your hobby is.

On the other hand it is a little weird that you say y’all drive 12 hours every 5 weeks (as well as holidays) or so to see them and y’all don’t have kids. What can you possibly visit about and do that often that you can’t do on the phone

They live out in the middle of nowhere on a farm.

I honestly don't see them that much, that's part of the reason it's pointless for me to be there.

I sleep in Saturday morning because we usually get in at 1 or 2 AM, by then her dad is usually gone to town to pick something up or working around the farm.

She kind of visits with her mom and younger sister or whatever, sometimes that evening they'll all come in and we'll talk a little.

Then Sunday, we get up go to church, come home, have lunch, then we leave.


This is just bizarre to me. Did your wife travel back home on the weekends when she was in college so the habit just stuck or something?

I get that some younger adults head to their parents' house on weekends and still have their old room and all that jazz because maybe they don't have a lot going on in their personal life, but for a married spouse to do this and then expect their spouse to also do it is a new one for me.

Even if I wanted to go spend weekends at my parents' house like I still lived there, we have so much other social things going on at home that we'd miss doing that as often as y'all are.

I don't know. I'm super close with my family. If I lived within driving distance I would definitely maybe spend a weekend a month with them? I wouldn't make my significant other come, but I probably wouldn't pick to date someone that doesn't like to be around my family.

But that's just how our family is.

IDK my mother in law comes and stays with us every other month for a weekend or so. My FIL was here last month and is coming again next weekend. My BIL stays with us a ton when he's traveling through.

=/= sacrificing a weekend for a cousin's graduation party before/after a 12 hour round trip for mothers day.

Right, I would not want to be with someone who viewed that sacrificing a weekend. I'd pick someone who wants to do both. And vice versa.

We already go about once a month, this was about her basically wanting to go 3 of 4 weekends. I like her family fine but I don't want to spend 3 out of 4 weekends with them.

The OP is talking about I believe 3 weekends all together (if you count the later scheduled Memorial Day trip he mentioned) in one month where one of those drives (the graduation party) would've been a 6 hour drive roundtrip and the other two weekends would be a 12 hour drive round trip. If they're not taking off any work for that drive, that's a long arse weekend.

I don't blame anyone for not wanting to do that for a whole month if they're already seeing family once a month at that distance. This isn't a quick plane ride or a 1-2 hour drive type deal.

Yeah, if you are that close to your family where I'm expected to regularly drive 12 hrs on the weekends than we need to move closer.

The key is, would she do it for you? If so, you're up the creek without a paddle. Also, women never forget, so you make the wrong decision and you're going to hear about it FOREVER!

No kidding

Most wives would lose their shite like Debra on Everyone Loves Raymond if they were stuck multiple weekends in one month driving 6-12 hours to visit their mother in law
