Me and my cousin had a big argument over this. I still think she was being totally unreasonable, but she made me feel like I was being unreasonable.
She asked me to stay with her for a weekend earlier this year.
She lives in a different country to me, so it's a long journey over to see her.
I went over. My aunty (not her mother) lives near her, so i said that I would pop up to see my aunty while I was there.
My cousin got really angry and told me that she didn't want me to go to see my aunt, that i was there to see her.
My cousin seemed to think that because I was staying with her, that she could control my every move.
I said I was going up to my aunt.
I came back to my cousins house. My cousin was really angry and shouted at me to get out of her house. My cousin seemed to be angry that I "went against her".
I was shocked at her anger and I left. I just thought that she was so over the top.
I left her house day early.
We sent each other one long angry message each, and then haven't spoken to each other since. As I'm just shocked by her behaviour.
She was so extreme.
What I gathered from her message is that she seemed to think I was using her for a place to stay.
Not true. And after experiencing her anger I wish I'd stayed in a hotel.
What I wrote back to her is
"While it was nice of you to let me stay with you, I'm an adult and you can't tell me or any other adult not to go anywhere!".
What do you all think.
