Sil & bil (dhs older sister) have fallen out with me and I want to know if iabu.
There’s no real backstory. I get on fine with them. We don’t see them often, they live locally but they don’t have kids (don’t want them), and they have busy social lives. The only thing that annoys me slightly is that when they visit us they never let us know they’re coming and they’ll overstay, even when our children were small and we’d drop hints that it’s bedtime. Or they’ll give a time and then turn up hours later.
On Monday dh had gone to meet his friend as he does once a month. I had a bath and an early night, was in my pyjamas and in bed watching TV, both dc were in bed.
Just after 9pm the doorbell rings. I think who the fuck is this as not expecting anyone. I check the ring doorbell and it’s bil and sil.
I go and answer the door and they’re expecting to come in for a visit.
I probably was a bit short with them but I wasn’t nasty. I said it isn’t a good time as dh is out and we are all in bed. I did offer for them to come in and wait for dh but he probably wouldn’t be back until 10.
Anyway they got huffy and left. Sil has text dh saying I was rude and made them unwelcome. They shall not bother visiting again.
