So, I typically don't "vent" about a lot of things online but this is bugging me and so I think typing it out will help
FIs moms birthday is coming up and FI invited his family (3 sisters, one married with 2 adorable kiddos) to have dinner at our place. No one ever comes to see us so I can see why he would do this. Our "place" is a 1 bedroom apartment. We have an eat in kitchen that at best fits 6 cramped... not 9. FI was all "people can eat in the living room, etc." I have been brought up that if you are hosting a dinner everyone should have adequate seating, etc.
Long story short they are still coming but we will do something small (apps, dessert) at our place and then go out to a restaurant his mom loves. This is great BUT I am almost embarassed to have people come. We have bare bones everything and nothing extraordinarly nice and decorated. His fam can be opinionated about things (I've noticed over the years) so I'm suuuuper nervous to have them come aka I'm freaking out.
Tell me I'm being irrational, tell me I'm crazy but normal, or tell me your stupid irrational stories... just tell me something!
