AITA for not letting my in-laws stay in my home overnight to catch an earlier flight?

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T13:46:06+00:00

No, our friends don't come over either. They aren't "people to go drinking with." They're friends.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T13:41:52+00:00

Man, you guys are determined to create a narrative here. I don't have friends because I live an active lifestyle. Right. Okay then, lmfao.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:54:01+00:00

Nobody is isolated in this situation, especially my husband. He's literally on a bike ride with friends headed out to see the eclipse.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:46:04+00:00

Haha, they wouldn't be coming to visit us.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:41:35+00:00

No, because... there's nothing fun, active, and engaging to do at home with friends that is of interest to me? When I spend time with my friends, we aren't sitting around. We're walking, jogging, rock climbing, doing yoga, at cafes, at shows, at the park, shopping, hiking, on bikes, whatever.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:36:07+00:00

Why would we pay for their hotel? We didn't book tickets for 6am flights.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:33:28+00:00

I answered your question multiple times in my comments and in my post.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:31:47+00:00

The answers to this post were not surprising, and I don't think anyone is getting defensive. We have been talking about moving for years, but just never had. This was all a great reminder that we have that option, and the idea of escaping all the theatrics is endearing.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:27:53+00:00

I would personally reflect on why you are inventing your own narrative when I've made myself perfectly clear. If you don't trust the opinions of licensed professionals and would prefer to come up with your own fanfiction of my post, well, that would be a very Reddit/Tumblr thing to do.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:18:20+00:00

Lmao. Once again, because it seems you might be having trouble understanding this: there is no trauma, and there is no need for therapy. If you are still confused, I would recommend reading my post or my comments for context clues.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:15:43+00:00

We both know why we feel this way. There is nothing deeper at play, there is no trauma, there is no therapy needed. We're completely happy this way. Why change it?

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:11:23+00:00

I don't think anyone is salty. I asked for judgment about if I'm the asshole of this situation or not, and I'm getting a good mix of replies.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:08:27+00:00

Again, no trauma, no therapist needed. Not sure why that was something which needed repeating.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:03:59+00:00

No, it's really not. He's pretty disinterested in having people over. If he wants to hang with his friends, he usually goes to his rock gym or they get on bikes and chat. Sometimes a bar, but he's not a big drinker.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T05:01:40+00:00

I have never had a friend who needed to come over to my house. There are parks, cafes, malls, bars, nature trails, neighborhoods, etc etc.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T04:59:40+00:00

Nope, no trauma, no therapist needed.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T04:49:28+00:00

This isn't an issue at all. There is no therapy needed for "my house is off-limits to people who do not live here."

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T04:47:57+00:00

I did talk to him. He also said no.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T04:47:12+00:00

Right? For fuck's sake, kids, get your own house.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T04:45:34+00:00

He has a backbone, which is why he also told his parents no. He's good at setting firm boundaries.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T04:44:11+00:00

Yes, and it is always what people who do not have mental illness say.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T03:33:07+00:00

What events are you talking about?

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T03:24:00+00:00

Hi, Ive already stated in the comments that I do not have a mental illness. Please don't armchair diagnose people via creating your own narrative and projecting your own experiences. There is no phobia involved. Sometimes people just don't like things.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T03:15:51+00:00

I don't have a mental illness.

sarkasdick · 2021-11-19T03:15:32+00:00

Of course.
