[quote=Anonymous]Both my mother and my MIL do this. My mom is local, so we only have to deal with it for an afternoon or an evening or so. We're traveling tomorrow to stay with MIL and I'm dreading it because she's also one of those people who believe that we all MUST BE TOGETHER EVERY MOMENT. If I go to the bathroom and am gone for more than 5 minutes she starts calling for me to see where I am. If I'm reading a book on the couch she'll sit down across from me and start talking to me and will complain to DH that I'm being rude by reading. We have to talk while watching TV or watching movies. I'm an introvert who works with people all day and I just want some downtime to recharge for a few days and I don't get a minute of downtime there. I know I need to suck it up and deal, especially because she lives alone and is lonely, but it's exhausting. Deep breaths....[/quote]
