We were invited to my friends (of around 20 years) for a weekend. Spent 3 hours last night preparing a lovely dinner to take down to theirs (I'd offered as they were busy planning a party for tomorrow night and I thought they'd have enough to do). I then drove me and my partner 3 hours to their house. Has a good meal but as soon as it finished, they insisted that what they'd like to do is teach my partner a new board game (they're very into board games. I'm not. They know this). So rather than make conversation between the four of us, there's me in a separate room and them playing a board game. AIBU to feel this is a little rude? I can't decide. I really don't have any interest in board games and whilst happy for them to enjoy this, I'm left feeling they could at least have chatted a little so I was included rather than excluded. Yes, I've excluded myself in one way by not joining in but I can't force an interest in it. I just think an hour or so chat after the meal would have been nice. I feel a bit upset tbh and can't work out id I am being unreasonable or not
