[QUOTE="Lil, post: 743803, member: 17309"] I agree it was impolite. I just would assume that it wasn't an intentional slight. At least until you said this: My brother dropped the bomb on me once that his mother and father in law didn't like me. I was SO upset! I never did a single thing to those people. In fact, I went to Christmas at his house one year, I believe just after my father passed, and I bought them a gift because I knew they'd be there even though I'd only met them at my brother's wedding! He told me they were "intimidated" by me. WTH? ME? Even thinking about it now, I'm just floored that anyone would feel that way. I tend to think of myself as really nice. So yeah...it could have been intentional. But as I decided about the in-laws...that's their problem, not yours. You didn't do anything wrong and I would stop inviting them if they act like that. Us too. In fact, we're going to Jabber's family Thanksgiving tomorrow. And while my in-laws have been known to invite their ex son-in-law and his new wife when his kids are in town alone (that is to say, without their mom) this will be only the Jabberwockey clan.
