Feeling ungrateful :(
I get two nights a month at home with our son where my SD goes to her Nan’s house.
This evening my husband has booked for the two of us to go for dinner and for a babysitter to have our son at home.
I don’t want to go. I really look forward to my quiet nights in with our son where everything is calmer and it’s just our family.
My husband is not happy with me not wanting to go out together. I just feel that he completely misunderstands what is important to me. He’s also booked a Turkish restaurant which is way out of our budget and we can’t really afford, plus I don’t like the food.

@Angel you are right, I just wish he’d chosen a night when SD was here too and I’d have really welcomed going out for an evening as it would have been a night off rather than something I look forward to.
I understand where you’re coming from but also thinking would he have had to pay more to the child minder if they were looking after two kids instead of one? Maybe he thought this was cost effective

I understand you cherishing those two nights a month but it’s important for you to also cherish your relationship with your husband outside of you both being mum and dad. It’s really important in a relationship to maintain the dating and intimate side outside of kids. You’ll still have the next months two nights to look forward to. I’d understand why your husband is upset about this. Also he definitely should have considered what food you liked though
