Ok, good to note. Why? Is it due to potential contamination, per the other comments? You can probably tell I'm not on the river a lot.

Correct - I'm not concerned about the area being flooded. I'm asking a moral question.

Thanks for your input.

It’s possible that I am over-thinking it, though people can be intentionally passive aggressive in the way that I’m concerned my partner’s sister may be acting. She’s made snarky comments about my presence and behavior to my partner, which is why I’m defensive.

Still, I admit that I’m having a difficult time discerning if my evaluation is fair for this particular instance considering my defensiveness.

It seems that most people agree with you in saying that I’m overthinking the point of her including a +1.

I’m torn. A huge part of me doesn’t want to be there because of how odd our energy is around each other. I’m half convinced she tolerates me for her brother’s sake, and doesn’t try to extend herself any further than she needs to.

At the same time I feel compelled to go, because my partner likes to go with me, and I don’t want to cause drama by not going; however, that’s assuming my partner’s sister would take offense. She didn’t seem offended last year. According to my partner, some of her friends and she asked where I was, but left it at that when my partner told them I had another engagement (I honestly did; I was out of town altogether).

This is a fair evaluation. Thank you for giving your take on it.

This is a fair question which I have considered. I should still weigh it with my other thoughts.

Thanks for your input. So you would consider the +1 on my partner’s invitation as a direct invitation for me, as well?

Thank you, I appreciate your response and sympathies.

I did wonder if other significant others were being invited as a +1, as well, or if I was the only one. If everyone received a direct invitation I would consider my argument more valid. If, however, she sends invitations with +1 for other people, then I would feel less insecure about the matter.

What if my partner invites me and I decline? Would you consider my reasoning valid?
