[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know when we go back “home” to visit there are a lot
Of people we hope to see and it gets really tough to see everyone. The party sounds like a good way for them to see several People at once they may not have time to see. I wouldn’t take it personally. It got to the point for me where in wouldn’t even tell people we were coming to town until I got there and knew we’d have time to see them. [/quote]

+1.  I recently posted from other other side of this, and the DCUM advice was to host an event that multiple people could come to because I won't have time for a private visit with everyone.

Honestly, I feel like I can't win because I [i]know[/i] my friends and family will have the same reaction as OP.  But we're talking about dozens of people who want a two hour (or more) personal visit with me, and I'm in town for a reason unrelated to seeing any of them.  It makes me wish they didn't know I'd be in town.

OP, you have years of evidence that she cares about you.  A kind and caring thing to do would be to give her some space to do what she came to town to do.  [/quote]
