Name changed for this!
AIBU - my mom and sister have just informed me they will be booking the week of my 30th birthday off - not to celebrate my birthday at all - but to go on their own separate holiday together abroad?!
It’s my 30th this summer and I was kind of hoping (maybe this is where I went wrong!) that they may want to organise a get together at least for my birthday?? Or at least be around for the weekend beforehand so we can do something to celebrate!
They don’t understand why I’m not happy. I would get it if I NEVER did anything for them. But I organised a meal out for my moms birthday last year, paid the deposits, pre-ordered all the food, got in touch with the restaurant multiple times when they kept changing the guests etc. This is not the only time I have done stuff like this. I would never dream of booking a holiday on my own when it comes to their 30th and 60th which are approaching soon (after this maybe I would though!). I have said this to them, but my answer was - why should we organise something for you. Apparently I’m acting like a child for feeling hurt and upset and frankly, a bit annoyed.
AIBU to be hurt by this? Apparently it’s the only week they could get off together. In the whole of 2019. Yet when I kick up a bit of a fuss, they miraculously can book the following week .
Honest answers would be great. Maybe I’m being too sensitive but it just feels like they really couldn’t give two f@*ks.
