So if you invite someone over for dinner, what time is acceptable for them to stay until?
We invited a relative for dinner, and after dinner (8pm) they stayed until 1am (weeknight). Which was tricky because I get up at 5.30 for work and had to drop them home.
Now I don't want to be a dragon, but is that unreasonable? And also, am I a wimp for waiting until they suggested going home? It's my OHs relative, who I really get on with and enjoy their company but just not that late. Should he have said something? I haven't mentioned it to him because I don't want him to think I'm not happy to make an effort for his side. Probably sound like I'm being a bit mean!
