NBR Vent

Our me and my husband's10 year high school reunion is coming up on the 27th of this month. I was very active and involved in our high school, DH, not so much. DH does not want to go, but decided to suck it up and go because it's important to me.

Our high school is 3 hours away near my inlaws, so we had planned to stay with them and visit while in town. Now through some kind of miscommunication between DH and MIL we are not going to visit the weekend of the reunion because my FIL and BIL will not be home. Also my SIL is working that weekend. So we are going to visit the weekend of the 20th instead because all the inlaws will be there...forget the 10 year reunion that I have been looking forward to for months.

My frustration is that the purpose of the trip was for the reunion and DH and my inlaws don't seem to care and won't budge.

Maybe its just my hormones making this be too big of a deal but at the moment I am mad and needed to vent before I start crying at work.

ETA sorry about the typos. Mobile.

  • I don't think your just being hormonal. They're completely disregarding your feelings as ignoring the original reason to visit with your ILs. They're being insensitive and if the reunion is important to you, maybe you could find a way to still go. And since YH insists on visiting with the in laws, insist he drive you to the reunion as well

  • If its that important to you, find the way to go. I would find a hotel nearby and make it a weekend to yourself. Go to the spa, mani pedi that kind of thing. Since I'm kind of a b!tch I wouldn't even bother to see the in laws at all. Like I said I'm a bitz and you may not be but still if its that important find a way to go with or without him.
  • Umm no I'd be pretty mad too.  DH and MIL don't get to just change the plans without you having a say.  The main/original purpose of the trip was the reunion and that date can't be changed, so I'd say you and DH should still go and just get a hotel room if it's not a good weekend to stay with the ILs.  Then plan another weekend, that works for everyone to go back and visit.   If you DH agreed to go with you to the reunion, I'd hold him to it.

  • The whole purpose of the trip is the reunion. I'd go anyway and tell him he can feel free to go or stay home. And I wouldn't go back the next weekend when he visits his family

    This.

     If the purpose was the reunion then you should still get to go to the reunion!

  • I agree with PP if the reunion is important to you go, YH was fine with going just cause HE can't visit with most of his family the same weekend doesn't mean that YOU shouldn't get to go to the reunion.

    I would actually be very stubborn and say if we can't go to the reunion we aren't going at all.
