Yesterday (Xmas) our car broke down. We tried to start it and it wouldn't turn. We were suppose to go see my DH family in the afternoon and later in the evening return home and have friends come over. We called them to let them know we couldn't make it because of our car problems. They offered to give us a ride but we told them we had guest coming over and didn't want to make someone to make four trips in a short period of time. We told them we would show up wensday and hope all would work out. I got a text from my FSIL who I don't blame at all for this, saying his parents want nothing to do with us and not to call again. What the hell is that all about? I'm so friggened annoyed. My DH is afarid because they helped get his job that they may do something to cause him to lose it. This is just messed up. They didn't get there way so they feel they need to treat us like children? We're adults, not all adults make it home for Xmas. I don't understand why they are acting out this way. This is just screwed up!

OMG!!! like you guys don't have enough to worry about with your car problems and now they have to act like this? do they think you were happy about your car not working or you missing your christmas get together? some people are so selfish, i don't understand! did you call them and talk to them about what your SIL said??? to you.

Maybe they were hurt and took offence because they prepared a meal for you. Maybe they thought you made up an excuse since you mentioned having friends over later and thought you just did not want to go. Especially since you told them not to pick you up.

They have a huge feast and like 15-20 ppl over every yr. We've gone to every Xmas at there house since we've been together, this is the first one we couldn't make it. We explained we were going over for a little while and leaving. They didn't want to hear it. Honestly I'm really PO! I just don't understand people. Top it off, the car may be too expensive to fix. Just what we need this time yr. What really bites is I can't return any of their Xmas gifts. There just cluttering up my car. I don't think we'll see them for a while.
