Somewhere in the middle? Aren’t marriages about compromise with the correct partner?.

If he’s getting up extra early to make dinner, then by all Means eat at 1. Otherwise, eat dinner when the cook has it ready.

My inlaws have dinner at 1 or 2. My family would have dinner at 5. It worked out for us when we visited both families for holidays. His family also did The Feast on Xmas eve.

When the cook decides….

Start with the appetizers and sides about 1. Go full plate at 4. Both satisfied.

Whenever the cook puts it on the table

2:30

We eat at 2…..there’s too much to get done by 1:00….by 4:00 I’d be starving and eating too much junk beforehand

We ate (ham and sides) at 1:00 because that allows kids to have a second Thanksgiving with their in-laws. Yes, when I cook turkey it’s a very early start.
