Upset with my ILs (vent)
So yesterday was my bday and I turned 25. I never got 1 phone call from any of my ILs wishing a happy birthday. Normally this wouldnt bother me, but I know for a fact that if I never wished any of them a happy birthday that they would complain to DH about it then talk sh!t about me to each other. Thats just how they all are. Oh and when DH called his parents to see if they were coming to dinner, they played stupid and acted like they didnt even know that it was my bday and that really pissed DH pff because he told them where we were going and when. So im wondering if im wrong for being upset/bothered by this. Sorry if this sounds whinney or even b!tchy but I need to get this out. TIA.
Re: Upset with my ILs (vent)
Eh... I guess be the bigger person. Still call them and wish them a happy birthday on their birthdays, and let them look bad for not calling you. It doesn't sound like their calling you on your birthday would have added much to your day. (I hope you had a good one! Happy Birthday!)
That being said, my in-laws don't call me on my birthday, and I don't really call them on theirs, though my DH and I usually go down at some point to celebrate with them with a cake or something. *shrug*
Are there other underlying issues here that's making this an "icing on the cake" issue?
I agree with Karen... just be the bigger person. My MIL didn't call DH on his birthday last year... and then called the day after to say she forgot - and she gave birth to him!.... lol. So the bar is set pretty low in our family. But I always make sure to call them on theirs, send them a card, etc. I know where you're coming from, but there isn't much you can do without starting a huge fight.
PS. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
