[quote=Anonymous]I think a really good life rule is to never view another person as a cast member for the event in your head. It’s easy to unintentionally get caught up in the idea of a Norman Rockwell image, big family gathering, loads of decor and food, the hostess being lavished with praise, and the guests having the time of their lives. It is never like this. Never. Yet people still seek it, try to control others to get closer to the ideal, and get very upset when a cast member quits the production. It sounds like your BIL/SIL are engaged with you and simply more interested in a regular relationship rather than a performative one.[/quote]
