Okay..here''s the thing.. I have NO desire whatsoEVER to go on a Honeymoon. None. Don''t want to spend the money, don''t want to take the time off work (I don''t get paid vacation yet, and even if I did, after my wedding would be a real bad time to take it). And.. we just got our new house.. which we can''t move into until we get married.. (Because my FMIL is nuts.. but that''s another story for another day). So all I want to do.. is after the wedding go back to my house, we can maybe take a few extra days off work.. but I really have NO desire to travel. To me travelling is so tiring.. so unless i have a LONG time to go for.. It just not worth it to me. I just want to RELAX after my wedding.
Well FI won''t hear of not going on a honeymoon, and to top that off, he won''t give up the orignal plan of us going to Europe. That was a great plan when we made it, when neither of us had real jobs, and his parents were going to pay for the whole thing. But.. instead, his parents paid for a good chunk of the closing costs on our house (Which I''M SOOOO happy they did instead of the honeymoon..)But.. right now.. I don''t even have extra money to pay a speeding ticket, let a lone go on a trip to europe and take a week or more off of work.. He really thinks that just because he''s FINALLY (like.. starting last month..after 4 years of nothing).. is making some significant money that we are automatically "all set"..
FMIL isn''t making my life any easier. I have expressed to her that I don''t want to take the time off of work..and she just says.. "well you HAVE to take a few days off and go SOMEWHERE".. NO! I don''t have to go somewhere!! And its not that my boss wouldn''t let me take the time off (non-paid of course).. but I''m thinking Im just going to tell them all he said I can''t.. so they''ll shut up about it..
Am I crazy?
