There's nothing I can add because the other comments pretty much covered it. EXCEPT.... Umm... birthday MONTH!!?? Is he kidding? Is he 5? PLEASE tell me he's kidding that the whole month should be spent celebrating him!! I bet his mommy brought him up with that nonsense. If so, let mommy take care of him all month As for you, don't cancel the trip. Pack your bag and put it in your car while he's at work. When the time comes, leave like you're going for groceries and take the trip alone. Use the time to consider whether or not you want to stay married to this overbearing, narcissistic, manipulative adult-sized baby for the rest of your life. You may discover that you can do better, even if it means being alone for a while. Good luck and stop cooking for him. Let's see how long it takes him to wither away without you playing Stepford wife for him
Before anything... condolences on the loss of your husband. It can't have been easy for you (and your children) to watch what happened to him. The words are in the vows in some form of "Until death parts us". Period. You stayed with Tim through thick and thin, including his depression and addictions, until his unfortunate demise. Then you concentrated all your efforts on making sure your kids erred well adjusted to the loss of their father and supported them in all their endeavors. Now they're both successful in their college lives because you focused on them and their needs above your own. You are entitled to have a life of your own. As far as Tim's family goes, you owe them no explanations about how you now choose to move forward. So towards them I say NTJ. The only ones who you should probably apologize to are your son and daughter. Not like you need their permission to see someone else, but a discussion with them about your intentions to try jerk again and asking their thoughts about it would probably have been better received from you rather than hear it from someone else. Still only the softest of YTJ on that note... because you deserve happiness, too. Hope you can mend any ill will between you and your kids. You've all lost enough already, don't lose each other, too. Good luck
Inappropriate doesn't begin to describe the sisters actions or comments. And something tells me that your complaint to the hospital was anywhere near the first one. With as many stories as you say she's old at home I'm sure there's three times that which don't get mentioned. I'm curious... does she have kids of her own?
NTJ about the eyebrows. You told her not to trim them and she did it anyway... not cool. However, I'd say a mild YTJ about the haircut. She suggested leaving it a bit long, you agreed, she did the cut and you admit it looked good. But then you said you wanted it shorter and she advised you it may not look good on you. You told her to cut it anyway and she did, although you say she didn't take too much more off. That was when you got upset. You don't say if you think it needed to be shorter than she left it or if you were just not happy with the outcome. Either way, you were advised against it and told her to proceed. How is that her fault? If you just wanted a little more taken off, you should have told her while you were still in the chair... not complain about it later. You probably still could have asked the next day for her to cut it shorter and follow the reference picture for the style, I doubt she'd be mad about it. Trying a new hairstyle can go horribly wrong because of the stylist. But they can cut it EXACTLY as you specify and it just doesn't suit you or you decide it was a mistake, too. All you can really do is wait until it grows out and try something else.
