[quote=Anonymous]I often beg off get togethers with my in-laws. I'm an introvert, but have no social anxiety. I enjoy socializing, but can find it draining, and get tired easily also due to a chronic physical condition. My in-laws' extended family like to get together multiple times a week. I usually don't go, and say I'm really tired, or that I have another thing already that I need to do. My kids and husband are free to go to as many family things as they want. I don't really care, at this point, if the in-laws are offended. I don't live to please others, and I'm not depriving them of their loved ones. I am always warm and pleasant when I'm around them. It's really their problem if they can't accept me as is. [/quote]
