Re: Well-This is awkward...
Really? You think that the parents should have invited two extra unexpected, unplanned people to a dinner minutes before it? And you think *they* were rude for not doing so? What world were you brought up in?
It is rude to show up at someone's house and expect them to include you in plans they already had for that time slot. Period. If your family finds it normal to drop by without notice, fine. If they are good with you bringing your furbabies along, fine. But to be hurt when you just drop by unannounced and they had prior plans that did not involve you? FFS were you people raised in a barn?
I think the poster is more upset about what BIL said than anything.
He was kinda being a D saying that in front of them.
I would be hurt if this happened to me with my in laws, however, I'm thinking about it from her DHs point of view. Maybe it's just my family, but I cannot ever imagine my parents finding it rude that I stopped over unannounced. They are my PARENTS. Its the home I grew up in as a kid, I should never feel like I'm being an inconvenience for being there.
I would find it rude that my own family can't make room for me at a dinner that includes family. But then again, I can't picture my mother ever feeling awkward and inconvenienced that I dropped by.
