My FIL needs to grow up!

[Deleted]

We had scheduled dentist appointments for both of us this morning in the hopes that our normal babysitter would watch him. She said it was fine but got home from a 10 day trip Saturday night and wasn't feeling well this morning so she had to cancel. We called the office to see what they could do and they worked it so that one of us was always in the lobby with Edmund.

H made a post on FB about reminding us not to schedule dental visits at the same time. His dad then texts him, while he is in the chair, and said that he could have taken him. He had told us on Saturday that he wouldn't be able to do it if our regular backed out and had said this morning that he wanted to be alone with his twinkie for the day so they could talk before they went their separate ways.

So H keeps getting texts from FIL saying that it would have been okay because the twinkie said it was okay. At this point it's too late He's in the middle of the cleaning and I am starting to get numb for my deep clean. It didn't matter though really because I won't leave Edmund with FIL if twinkie is there.

He's upset because he thought that things were going so great between him and twinkie and that they were going to be happy for a long time and then twinkie gos off and sleeps with another man and betrays FIL.

Oh twinkie is FILs now exBF who is 19 and FIL is 61.

19 with 61? Yeah, I'd expect that to happen. The maturity level there is so...disparate! What did he expect?

hmm, sounds like FIL needs to grow up AND get out of his mid-life crisis. All 19-yr olds are neurotic AWs, I hope your FIL learns from this life lesson.

Most of FIL's BF's have been within 3 or 4 years of my H's age, he's 38. FIL doesn't want anyone closer to his age because a)most of them have already settled down and are happy and b)those that aren't are just not worth it. H has always said that he grew up backwards like Merlin. He got married and had a baby all by the age of 23 and feels that he didn't get to actually live his young years.

Ok I admit, I almost typed if I was 61 yr old, I would totally want a 19 yr old... but that is gross. 19 yr olds are so not adults.

This. I can't imagine being 19 and wanting to be with a 61 year old.

My dad isn't even 61 and I wouldn't date anyone my dad's age (57). *shudder*
