Posted before about crazy mother of my partner.
Meant to be all going for lunch on Xmas day with my parents and sibling and sibling's DP. Partner's mum already said she thinks she will be too unwell to attend and wants my partner to use up 5 of the 10 days holiday he is taking to sort out her living situation (recently sold her house and she can't decide where to move to....either on top of DP or 3/4 hours in various other directions... seems strange to me). Mother also said she wasn't a people person and would rather stay in with the dog.
Partner doesn't want to rock the boat with her as she is 'a bit of an emotional person,' as he puts it, and feels guilty and like he needs to sort all this for her as she has a check up scan for potential cancer in Feb.
Am I being a total bitch for feeling annoyed about all this? Feels like a constant battle. My partner is understanding about my feelings towards it all, but he never really acts on it... we will still end up pandering to her every need and being manipulated.
