Need some advice - NBR

About a year ago my father in law passed away suddenly (2 month after being diagnosed with lung cancer).
Now my mother in law is all alone in her house, so DH and I end up going there almost every night for dinner - we feel bad that she will be eating alone. She keeps telling us that we don't have to go there all the time, but it's starting to get to the point where I want to stay home with DH alone for dinner.
How can I tell DH without upsetting him?
DH has a big family (4 other siblings) but we live the closest to her, so I think DH feels obligated to keep checking in on her.
TIA

I'm sorry for your loss, I am sure that has been tough on you all the past yr.

I think you def should express to DH how you feel. I wold just say to him nicely that you would love to do whatever is needed to help out his mother, but you really miss having time with just the two of you.

I think you just need to be honest and share how you are feeling. That you are missing that time with just him.

Goodluck!
