To tell my Christmas guests how angry I am that they didn't thank me?

My family stayed for three days.

I fed them (think nice food, champagne, nice wine).

I cooked for them and cleaned up after them. I've spent all day today washing bed sheets and towels, washing up etc. I work full time so back to work tomorrow.

While they were here I took them out for a meal (cost £100) and I picked up the bill. They didn't offer me any money and didn't thank me. I wouldn't have accepted any money anyway as it was my treat but would have been nice if they'd offered. Or at least thanked me.

They left today without thanking me for my hospitality, they just said nice to see you, bye etc.

It's not the first time similar has happened.

I'm furious.

Would I be unreasonable to confront them?

Let it go OP. You have said they have form for t his behavior ''it's not the first time this has happened'' so you either rtake them as they are or don't host again

However don't be angry, it'll hurt you more than it hurts them

Are you saying no one at all used the word thanks? At all? If so yanbu. If however they complimented/ thanked you at various stages then yabu. I'd wonder are they all convinced they did thank you but perhaps not a formal statement of thanks.
