Just curious how some of you deal with visiting family that you don't really care for? Normally, I'd drink a bit to take the edge off , but this particular family member (someone from my husband's side of the family) doesn't drink, so we try to be polite/respectful of that. This person is going to be in my house for almost 5 days and although I've very gently shared my feelings with my DH about their visit, I don't want to create issues (but I'm also having trouble dealing with the sense of dread that I feel). Guess this is just one of those grin-and-bear-it moments I'm rather impressed with myself that I was assertive (for once) and told my DH that he would have to give up his two, regular, weekend golf games while his family member was visiting because I would not be in charge of entertaining this person while he was off playing golf with his buddies. I feel a little guilty about that even though I probably shouldn't.
