In considered a bad mom cuz i go out twice a month

I go out twice a month cut loose with my four best friends and their husbands. We go to a concert or movie drink a bit and some times go bowling or iceskating.I don't come back until early in the am.it's therapy for me.He thinks I am cheating. I am not. The rest of the time I am supermom, I think I deserve to have me time.I wish it were us time, but he won't come.The whole time I am out he texts me over and over saying how could you leave me!The neigbours are putting ideas in his head that aren't true.For the longest time I didn't go anywhere at all.It was driving me nuts. I was drinking a bottle of wine alone in the hottub once a week when our son went to the in laws.But my husband also gets mad when I do that.He said since we are parents that FUN and happiness are not on the menu anymore. I disagree. I feel I am a better mom when I am rested after letting my freak flag fly a little BIT.

    If he's welcome and won't come out, then he has absolutely no right to say anything.
    Fuck him! Don't you dare feel guilty or stop having your few nights out because the man you married is an immature child sometimes.

    He's stupid crazy! Seriously, it's like he's asking you to cheat or leave him or whatever. Marriage and family shouldn't be made out to be drudgery! Did you marry a fundamentalist by any chance?

    Now I have to be honest in saying that my parents never went out alone without my sister and I when we were little, because they didn't believe in hiring babysitters, and we didn't have any family living near us. My folks did have fun, and a good sense of humor, they were also openly affectionate with each other. When we got older they would go out, and it was no big deal for us.

    Turn your phone off when you're out: he's trying to make sure you don't enjoy yourself, don't let him control you like that.

    He sounds like a miserable manipulative control freak. Has he always been like that, in which case why did you marry him or if not, when did he become like this?
