Would you find this odd?

[Anonymous]

My Aunt is coming to town. We are not close, have not seen her in a few years. She emailed me and my sibling to see if we could meet at some point. Sibling is out of town this weekend but I said sure I would get coffee Saturday morning. It turns out she is meeting a friend for the weekend and bringing them to coffee. I am going to go but it just felt weird that we haven't seen each other in three years and she is bringing her friend to coffee.

Afy opinions.

Eh, maybe her friend is driving her or they are going somewhere else afterwards. It is only coffee.

*Any

Ps I am 25 and my Aunt is 45.

She's probably squeezing a lot into a short trip and it was the only way she could meet everyone she wanted to see. And she figured you wouldn't mind.

Yeah just odd to make a thing of seeing me and then bring a rando.

Not seriously weird to me, but those things don't bother me.

Ueah, not sure why it feels odd to me, maybe because my Aunt is a little weird. Maybe I am just don't trust her because I dont really know her.

You need to grow up op. It's just coffee. Stop being so judgemental.

OP, I agree it's odd, but what can you do? Since you aren't close anyway, I wouldn't put too much thought into it.

OP here. Comletely agree. Did not want to bring it up to family or friends which is why I came to this anonymous board.

Anyway, no biggie. 1 hr at most.

It's not odd at all. Maybe it's a "friend." If I was traveling with a friend and we went through a town where their relative lived, I hope my friend would introduce me, or at least give the option.

Yep, I think it's weird. It wouldn't stop me from going but I definitely find it odd.

Your Aunt is coming into town and she hasn't seen you in a few years. She doesn't want to put you in the awkward situation of having to entertain her or invite her over so she is bringing this friend along as a way to keep your visit together short but sweet.

Go have coffee with your aunt. It's nice that she wants to see you and catch up w/o taking a bunch of your time. She sounds really sweet!

She doesn't know you, either, then, so maybe friend is a buffer. I don't think this is a big deal. The more the merrier.
