That is VERY unfair of his to even ask that of you knowing that you get support on the internet. Yes it may be from strangers but sometimes strangers can give you better advise than your own family. I think what your H is trying to do is unrealistic and I would put my foot down. I think you are doing the right thing by offering to compromise with him because a marriage takes two and you have to consider the others feelings BUT for a month- just stupid and silly.
