What are the plans for?
Wife’s friend may have just wrecked a Father’s Day surprise gift.

Odds are good that she told you but you weren’t listening.

My wife will ask but I really don't have a say in matter

When she insists that you apologize for how you made her “feel”, bite the billet but keep smiling on the inside because this is as close to her acknowledging that you were right as you’re ever gonna get. The win is you got through to her, and she knows you’re right, even though she will never say so. Gotta read it between the lines but it’s there.
This is spot on. I’ve been married 13 years and still struggle to keep this in mind.

No, I am expected to go. If I don’t then I am selfish for skipping out on a family event.
So if I’m understanding correctly, your wife unilaterally made plans to go out of town with the kids, didn’t tell you before or after, and after finding out from someone other than herself, expects you to go?
How did the conversation with her go after you found out? Did she forget to tell you? Did she have no intention of telling you?
This is odd. Either your wife’s communication skills are awful, she told you already and you forgot, or she just doesn’t think she needs your input in planning the life you two are supposed to be sharing.
If it’s the last one, that’s disrespectful and you need to tell her. Not in a provoking way but just tell her “when you do that I feel disrespected and unimportant”.

So many good responses here. I appreciate the honestly.

I'm as direct as direct can be. I don't apologize for how I made her feel. I double down on the fact that it was her fault.
I've always told people to not ask me a question if they're afraid of the answer because I'm going to give them the truth. That's why I'm not cut out for politics and I would only be able to get so far up the corporate ladder. I'm sure it's also why some people don't like me.

I think if she would swallow more often, her gut instincts would prevent her from acting like that.

I hope it wasn't you that brought it up to her.

This is 100% correct. She does not respect me. She gets a warning before I make plans and I ask if that is ok. I do not get the same respect. If I say nobody is going on this stupid trip she will throw a fit. She would much rather piss me off and upset her husband than to upset her brother and sister in law.
Is it possible the neither of you are really respecting each other?
If she knows you don’t like your in-laws and you think plans with them are “stupid” (she probably knows this even if you don’t say it), I can see why she might not want to include you in her plans. Not saying that’s right, I’m saying maybe yall are “in a dance” and it’s turning into a tit-for-tat thing.
One of you has to stop the dance. If you decide to, tell her “when you do this, I feel disrespected”. Then, ask her what you can do to make it easier for her to plan things together with you. That way, you start a conversation and not a defensive back-forth that will ultimately go nowhere.

I'm guessing no older than 28 with 2 kids under 4.
If I'm close, just tough it out, brother.
If you're in your 30s and have been married for more than 8 years, you got to get your shite together, guy.

Get your wife in line. One of my vows was to OBEY my husband. He rules the house and I defer to him. I am not a submissive woman, but I greatly appreciate him being strong. Is your wife not a Christian?

You are even smarter than I thought.

Shave your pubes off a couple days before she leaves.
Shave your face clean, too.
Send me half the money you saved because she stayed home all weekend cooking and watching you like a hawk.
