[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People as condescending and dripping with judgement as you are painful to be around. It’s not them, it’s you.

Do everyone a favor and just stay home. [/quote]

Op here. I know, it's so judgmental that I expect to have edible food available when I'm invited to someone's home for thanksgiving. And it's so bitchy on my part that I find it sexist/rude to have 4 different relatives make a minimum of 2 comments each to me at every single gathering that they don't see us enough. I should just assume all responsibility for my husband's social calendar and relationship with his family.

I could provide dozens of other examples but there's only so much room in a post. I skip posts that are too long and I wanted feedback. [/quote]

The food is edible. You may not like it, which is fair,  but it is edible.

Are they saying to you "Why ar you keeping are sone away from us?"  or " We  don't see you guys enough. We love you."   Because the two comments are very different.[/quote]

Op here. Not that it matters since I’ve already made the decision but the comments are in between your two examples. What annoys me is they only make these comments to me, never to DH, they make them every single time I see them, and it’s multiple people who chime in. It’s also simply false that they never see us. They see us constantly!

I guess it also doesn’t sit right with me that they seem to think they have the right to summon us. That’s part of the issue. There’s no discussion or democracy. Just, the party starts at 7 (DD is a toddler....we can’t do 7 pm gatherings across town). When we don’t attend for reasons like that they give ME attitude. It just gets old. They never offer to help us out or want to see us on our terms, only theirs, and when we don’t show up 100% of the time they bitch at me. I’m done with it.[/quote]
