I know. What a terrible hardship for you to have considered sharing a room with your sibling. Thank god you were sheltered from those horrors.

My sister and I wouldn't think twice about sharing a bed for 2-3 nights. Especially if it meant we were putting my mom on the couch! Why is it so hard for you to believe people were raised differently than you? |
Excellent use of sock puppeting. You’re not putting your mom on the couch. Your cousin, her DH, and her 2 kids are. |
| I’m a big person, and I have a lot of sleep issues. I can barely share a king bed with DH and get a good nights sleep. Hotels are awesome and more comfortable for everyone and usually they aren’t even that expensive over thanksgiving. |
It’s funny that you can’t imagine that multiple people are calling out the selfish people responding. |
Jeff can confirm, the above was my first in this thread. But my first accusation of being a sock puppet after all these years on the internet. Right on! Right now (absent a hotel booking), Mom has invited OP and family. Sisters refuse to bunk together for a few days. So that leaves Mom on the couch. Why can’t you accept that other families handle things differently? Your way isn’t the ONLY way to handle things. |
Lol, well when the verbiage and the tone is the same it’s not that hard to figure out. But pour another glass of wine and try to up your troll game. |
Sorry to disappoint but your sleuthing skills suck. |
OK Nancy drew. Why won’t you admit that other families handle these types of situations differently? You’re too busy arguing with at least 2 people in this thread that you can’t pull your head out of the sand and admit you’re being unreasonable. |
And neither is yours. I’ve never needed to be invited to my parents’ home, as they’ve never needed to be invited to mine. I would never extend invitations to people that would necessitate adults that aren’t married/in a romantic relationship to each other sharing a bed, not just a room, but an actual bed. |
People can handle situations differently but that doesn’t make one selfish and unreasonable for handling it differently than you would. |
I’m not saying my way is the only way. You seem to be stuck that your way is the only way to handle things and arguing with anyone who doesn’t agree with you. I think the adult sisters are ridiculous for the solution to be “put mom on the couch”. I’m glad OP is considering a hotel and thinking about her aunt’s comfort because her selfish adult daughters sure as heck aren’t thinking about their mom’s comfort in a house they are GUESTS in. |
Yea, it does make you selfish that in your mother’s house, you wouldn’t share a room (no need to share a bed) with your sister, so that your mother can accommodate all of her invited guests. You want to prioritize yourself over your mother, in her house. That is selfish. |
Read the thread, or hell just the original post, they would have to share a bed. Or maybe you’re just trying to hide the sock puppeting by changing some details. |
Again, work on your sleuthing skills. They are terrible. There is no reason to share a bed. It’s funny you’re so fixated on that when you know that someone could sleep on an air mattress. |
