Can we trade in-laws???

Realy just my BIL.  I'm not usually one to complain and I am wasting my breath but he is a 38 yeard old adult who needs to get his priorites in order!  It's my MIL bday we are having dinner and cake this weekend around 5ish.  He has an event at a park that starts at 9 in the morning and ends around 1.  He wants to hang out after and basically doesn't care (my SIL is telling me this) even though she tried to tell him what the right thing to do is.  I mean we all want to do other things but sometimes we have to do things that are morally right!!  Why can't he just hang out til 4 and leave or at least even just try and make cake.  I would understand if he was working that evening but he is not.  There is so much more to him.  he is a selfish human being who ONLY puts himself first, not even his wife and kids!  Therefore, I am not surprised.  He is mopey and always miserable.  Hiw wife is a puppet-on-a-string who does nothing to curb his behavior.  I hate being around him to be honest.  Thanks for listeing to my non-sense post!

    BIL refuses to come to MIL's birthday celebration, because he has other plans.

     

    And OP, I would just be glad he won't be there!

  • Sorry!  I know, I am blabbing and making it confusing.  He does not have other plans that evening...just from 9 to 1.  Dinner and cake begins at 5 and yes, I am happy he won't be there.  This happens all the time with family bdays, he never goes cause he wants to do only what he wants to do. 
  • I would take up all of the Nest's space if I wrote all about him.  This is a glimpse of who he is and doesn't really explain.  Sorry for my "nothing" drama...lol.

    Oh, I read it as he was going to hang out at MIL's house after the event. I didn't see what the problem was.

     OP, he is a grown man. If his priority is hanging out, it is probably better that he won't be there. He is showing a lack of respect for MIL and for your SIL.

  • That's okay, I wasn't super clear and my typos didn't help any :)  If he was there he would be miserable with a puss on his face yelling at his kids and mine so yes, better off not there.  Just venting here.....which I never do!!!  LOL

    This specific set of circumstances wouldn't get me all riled up.  It's his life, his mom, his choice.

    Not having cake with your mom for her birthday is not immoral.


  • Sounds like a dooosh and things would probably be better with out him there anyways.

    I'd make trade for my inlaws for that.

  • You could have my thundercunt SIL, but she's in Sudan right now which is really working for me.

  • I guess it's not a matter of moral standards, basically just a matter of priorities.  If this was all he did, I would not get all in a huff about it.  He is just a shitbag who treats his wife like garbage as well....but she allows it.  Thanks for hearing me vent!

    This. However, it is totally assholish.
