DH got a text inviting him to a family party tonight, late.
We can't go, it's next weekend and he flies away with work Friday (which was only finalised this afternoon as well - this now can't be changed, other people flying from other countries involved too).
If we had know he would have changed dates.
So he gets text - can you come to blah blah next weekend.
DH texts straight back - I'm abroad etc
Relative - I can't believe you aren't coming - it's so disappointing you are literally the only people not coming.
To put some context here - we live 5 hours away from DHs home town. Everyone else going is local.
I think we are literally the last to be asked.
Either they didn't want us to come or think we have a magical time portal just to get us there.
They literally think it takes zero effort. No one offers us places to stay etc.
I half suspect person involved has done it to stop us attending and then can bad mouth us. Waiting until the last moment they can to invite us to make it most difficult.
I 100% know this has been planned, it won't be a last minute thing. I'd even guess it's been planned since xmas.
DH is upset. He likes to go to family things but it's really hard especially in term time and he works LONG hours. We can't 'pop' up.
I'm hacked off for him. Stuff like this makes me never ever want to go as we always get comments 'so disappointed you weren't at so and so's anniversary do etc'.
We always look like the bad ones every....single...time...
Just want to scream!
