[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're hosting Easter brunch this year and [b]MIL is being pushy about including my spouse's (adult) step sibblings.[/b] Neither my spouse nor I like the step sibblings and they don't particularly seem to like us either (so hopefully they just won't come). I just feel like if we're hosting we should be able to decide the guest list and if she doesn't like it she doesn't have to come. But we'll probably just do it anyway. Not thrilled. Mostly just venting. [/quote] I mean, I can understand where she is coming from. But what do you mean when you say she's being pushy?  She asked to invite them and... then what?[/quote]

She asked spouse if they were coming. Spouse deflected till she directly asked if they were invited, and then got upset when the answer was no. Spouse doesn't do well with anyone being upset so wants to just invite to keep the peace and just hope they don't show.

I think you don’t know the definition of pushy.
Being upset with the answer does not fit that description.
 I get not really caring for people and not having a lot of space., but frankly OP you do not sound likeable at all.[/quote]
