I need advice,
I have a family who has attended a few years. Love them. Mom and dad having marriage issues which I hear way too much about but kids are awesome.
Last weekend I offered to trade weekend care (never done before) for some construction work on my house. Weve traded services before. Always been win win.
I initiated the trade and terms. Dad was on board but I made it clear he had to deal with wife about it up front. She was going to be out of town, didnt want her mad or annoyed or thinking we were trying to hide it. Dad cleared with mom and I even texted mom while kiddo was over. She said it was cool and was happy the kids played nicely.
So, today dcm looks up husbands texts online and sees he was texting me before she left.she accused him of horrible things with me saying she thinks we had planned this all along. We all use text as primary communication tool after hours or when schedules are changing so texting is very much the norm here. They are having issues in their marriage but hey, what the hell did I do? I feel like telling the wife to take her drama elsewhere. I am happily married and was at home with 4 kids having a sleepover. I did the guy a favor by watching the kid on a sat afternoon and overnight and even told him it had to be on up and up with wife beforehand because I dont need drama.
She texts me like normal today and even asks if something is up, asks if Iam having a bad day. I didnt answer but do feel like calling her out on it at pick up. I am an honest, no drama person and value honesty more than any other trait. I feel like I got burned, did a favor, and now this....
