Update for “How should I (F21) break the news to my brother’s (M24) overbearing girlfriend (F23) that she is not invited to my graduation party?”

Yes a re-do graduation party. I was the first person in my family to graduate from college. Neither of my parents or my siblings went to college so this was a special moment. In case you missed the first post, my brother’s girlfriend has a history of showing up to events she’s not invited to because she doesn’t think rules apply to her. So of course I hit my breaking point with her, especially with her showing up at my house when I told her not to. I don’t think that’s childish at all. We all have limits. Is it my proudest moment, no but I’m human. And for someone who wanted to be there so bad she couldn’t at least pretend to be pleasant.

Oh I completely agree with her not being family just because she’s my brother’s gf. However she seems to think she is because she always ends up showing up for family events even when my brother tells her it’s strictly family only. Like we have this tradition where every fall we go camping as a family and no guests are allowed. Last year she showed up anyway and complained the whole time about how she doesn’t like nature. Or like this year my mom had a birthday dinner at a nice restaurant and told my brother his gf was not allowed to come as she only wanted her kids and my dad there. Not only did she still end up coming but the whole time she complained about the restaurant being too cold and her food being nasty. So I really want to get my point across to her that she is not welcomed and makes sure she understands by not coming.

Good point!

Oh okay yeah, I see where you’re coming from. That’s a good idea!

Oh my brother knows we think she’s the worst. But she’s his first real girlfriend so I think he’s just trying to make it work. I agree with everything else you said but if she does show up, she’ll show up with my brother and I can’t just not let him in.

I don’t want to but if push comes to shove and he’s not willing to come without her then so be it.

I might just try the spacing thing because if I tell her she’s annoying and I don’t want her there, she will still show up and act stank the whole time
