[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother is like this. He might have undiagnosed ADHD. Ever since he started driving, he's been late. It drove my dad insane but his friends accept it because he's charismatic and generous once he shows up. U deal with it by sticking to our schedule. We order, eat, settle the tab and leave on time. If he wants to hang out and open his own tab with whomever remains, that's on him. [/quote] +1 I married into a family like this. I follow my MiL when we visit them for a week overseas. She has notes on what to turn off or double check on the wall if every room. 75% of thr time we leave late or have to return home for something for FIL or single BIL. They don’t eat out it’s just too much. fIL harasses the waitstaff with a billion questions or condiment requests and then can barely cut his steak in slow motion. He also can’t drive but doesn’t let MiL drive so we’re praying the whole drive as people pass us left and right as we go 20 mph under the speed limit. We tried taking them to the Caribbean once and that backfired. They lack energy to do anything and prefer to stay in the condo and make lentil stew for four hours! They can’t handle new things; they need their annual family visit and just sit and veg in their homeland condo or their own house or our house. [/quote]
