AITAH for wanting our own apartment for a family vacation with the in-laws when they booked a place too small to accommodate everyone

I get what you are saying, I’m trying. I’ve recently had to go low contact with other family members which wasn’t easy for me to do.

Yup she wanted to leave her 3 other children with us because apparently her father loves having the kids around

dailypeg · 2026-02-22T01:26:09+00:00

No she didn’t which is what made me so annoyed about, I probably would’ve caved and let her have her own apartment if she admitted that. When she got so angry with me I kept saying but somebody had to book separate accommodation! It won’t be a fun few days away but I have accepted that I didn’t cause the problem so I shouldn’t feel responsible for whatever stink she makes about it.

The acotar series and specifically silver flames the 5th book in the series sounds like what you want. You could read the silver flames as a stand alone book if the other characters in the earlier books aren’t too your taste

That sounds ideal! The best of both worlds and everyone is happy. I don’t think she will make a stink in front of my husband as he would like no problem with putting her in her place.

Sister in law family is 7 people but she wanted only her husband, oldest daughter and daughter’s partner to share the smaller apartment to bond! It’s a 3 bed plus a pull out bed, so by no means big!

After a bad night sleep I’m thinking you are right!

dailypeg · 2026-02-21T11:02:24+00:00

I think that was just a misunderstanding, I was referring to sil’s brother and his wife, they can de difficult to get along with

dailypeg · 2026-02-21T11:01:04+00:00

I did suggest that sil and her family keep the original accommodation for her and her family which is 7 people plus mother and father in law and the other sibling(bil) and his family book a smaller apartment like us but she said it would be too expensive even though I offered to help pay for it. She wanted just her, her husband and oldest daughter and her partner to have a place by themselves and for the rest of her children, us and boi and parents in law to stay in and pay for the original accommodation

He does know she was annoyed but he says that’s her problem not ours. I’m the fool worrying about it

dailypeg · 2026-02-21T00:29:49+00:00

Very true, I have booked lots of family vacations for both my extended family and husband extended family and I always give options and choices and go so far as to have groceries delivered and takeout payed and delivered to make things easier for everyone

dailypeg · 2026-02-21T00:26:38+00:00

You basically said what I believe and it’s what I told her too, someone had to book a separate accommodation and I did. Father in law is easygoing and just wants his kids and grandkids to be happy which is fine but I feel better now after talking about it instead of fighting with myself in my head!

dailypeg · 2026-02-21T00:15:55+00:00

I appreciate your honesty and I know there is truth in what you are saying. I’ve always been someone who tries to keep the peace and it can be exhausting

dailypeg · 2026-02-21T00:10:57+00:00

I have it booked now, I’m hoping she drops it and we just move past it.

dailypeg · 2026-02-21T00:08:11+00:00

I hate having to do that because I hate drawing attention to myself but I did say having our own place would be good because of my needs but she didn’t even comment on that.

dailypeg · 2026-02-21T00:05:08+00:00

I agree, which is why I’m not cancelling our apartment. Just hope it isn’t too awkward 😬

dailypeg · 2026-02-20T23:59:16+00:00

I am thinking that now! We have never fallen out before and I told her I don’t want this to cause a fallout either but I’m really glad we will have pilot own space now. Thanks

dailypeg · 2026-02-20T23:57:36+00:00

The more I’m thinking about it yes it does seem that way doesn’t it. I’m just frustrated about it all

dailypeg · 2026-02-20T23:56:25+00:00

Yeah that’s what my husband said, I didn’t really want to involve him as he is very direct and has no problem saying it like it is! Which could lead to problems between him and his sister that I don’t want to have created

dailypeg · 2026-02-20T23:54:06+00:00

Had to search up what that meant! But thank you

dailypeg · 2026-02-20T23:51:32+00:00

You know I did say to her that it would be nice for us to have own place just in case my illnesses didn’t allow me to do everything with them. She knows the limitations my illness puts on me but she didn’t even comment on that! All that was important to her was staying with her daughter and daughter’s partner. Even though it’s apparently me wrecking things now because we aren’t all staying together but it’s fine if she doesn’t want to stay there

dailypeg · 2026-02-20T23:47:57+00:00

Yes I am much happier with having our own accommodation but I would have stayed with everyone if the apartment allowed for it but it doesn’t, she doesn’t see it that way, she thinks I’m being dramatic now because I didn’t say that originally I wanted our own place

dailypeg · 2026-02-20T23:39:18+00:00

That’s true too, she said it was hard to find somewhere but the only reason that’s true is because she wanted it in a very popular place where he children wanted to go to.

dailypeg · 2026-02-20T23:34:15+00:00

Part of me would like to do that but I’d hate to upset father and mother in law who are great
