[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]+1000 And when I try to set boundaries (read: hotel) I am told that family doesn't cut family out and that I was raised better than that.[/quote] YES. Never mind how miserable people actually are when too many guests are crowded in one house, meals are chaotic, etc. my husband and I volunteer to stay in a hotel for holidays at my ILs, and you would think we had slapped somebody. So there we are, on a pull out in an unfinished/unseated basement...[/quote] This is part of what OP is talking about. Respect yourself enough to not be pressured or pushed around simply bc a family member feels differently. Your life = your choice! When I go home to visit, we stay at my hold hood home for a couple days bc that is what I like to do. The rest of the visit we stay at a hotel bc that is where DH is most comfortable. If I gave into family, we would stay at their house the whole time. My life, my choice, period. [/quote]
