DS2 asked if he could bring his gf over on her birthday for a meal. Fine I said. And it's your birthday in a few days after that so we could celebrate that at the same time he said. Nooooo! I don't want to shop/ cook/ clean up etc for at least 12 family members much as I love them for my birthday. And I don't want to share it as an afterthought! I did say no, it's not quite my birthday and I am going away for actual day so let's just keep it as a celebration for gf. Am I being unreasonable ? I know I will just get on with it whatever, but I would much rather be cooked for/ taken out to mark my birthday! Should I make this clear? Or would I come across as an old misery. .
