Dp and I are getting married next May. Our mothers have still not met each other (we've been together 3 years). So because they wanted to meet before the wedding we suggested a meal for me and dp and our respective mothers at the place where we're actually getting married. Sounds simple right?
Well no because dp's mother is insisting on his sister coming ... She wants to bring baby and her hubby. She's also very busy so every date we suggested got turned down due to her schedule. On the other side, my mum wanted his husband to come (the most unsociable and awkward person you've ever met) and then said "oh well, your sister may as well come too?". So by this point I'm starting to get really pissed off ... What started off as a simple meal has turned into a major bloody event. Because of how many people are now involved we've had to reschedual a million times and have now been trying to arrange in for months. Yesterday we settled on (another) date and today my mum said "I asked your grandma if she wanted to come, is that ok?" . I'm really on the edge of telling the lot of them to forget it. We both work full time, we're just as busy as everyone else yet every date we suggest someone is 'busy'. It's getting beyond a joke. It was just supposed to be a small meal so our mothers could meet each other!!!!
AIBU to be getting so round up? The annoying bit about it is that we constantly have both mothers in our ears saying "you've still not arranged that meal!". No because it's bloody impossible that's why!!
