We don't have a dog so maybe this is normal and IABU but I would like to know as it's annoying me!
The in-laws have a dog. He is like their child and they talk about him on the phone like I talk about my dc.
We live about 2 hours apart and always meet up over Christmas. We always end up going to them and meeting at a pub as they can't leave the dog for a day to come to us. I've always accepted this but do find the drive hard as it often takes longer than 2 hours in traffic and when you suffer with IBS this can be a nightmare especially with not many toilet stops on the M25.
This year I suggested they come to us or we meet half way at a restaurant and have a lunchtime meal. We could still see each other but takes the pressure off us a bit.
They've said a flat out no and that it's either a pub/restaurant near them again or they can't see us.
AIBU to want them to make a bit of effort and come and see us for a change?
