[quote=Anonymous]When my SIL receives an invitation from anyone in the family, she always asks for the date or time to be changed, usually last minute (like a day or two before the party), even though she knew about the event and conflict weeks in advance. Everyone is used to giving in to her, so last minute calls to the other guests advising them of the change is standard. I just received a request for a change, and my DH and I are at odds over it. While, for her, the request is "early," I do not want to contact everyone and ask them to change their plans, and come over for dinner instead of lunch. I'm not doing it. My DH thinks we should, b/c if we don't the whole family will get involved and he just wants to keep the peace. (We declined to change an event in the past, and she told everyone that I didn't like her or the family, and that's why I wasn't being flexible.) I disagree. I think she's rude. So settle this for me: should I give in and change it, or tell her too bad, so sad, stay home? I really don't want to cause family drama, but I don't like being a doormat either.[/quote]
