Why I hate mothers day..

wow, pity party coming in, table for one!

not really.

SO and I are invited over to his brothers "house" for a mothers day dinner with his mom,dad, brother, other brother, sister, brothers girlfriend and the girlfriends mom. SUPER.

I do not talk to my mother, nor have I in several years. I have been virtually on my own since the age of 16. I have "mothers" as in women that I consider posistive role models that have played the mother role to me throughout my life and I always acknowledge them on this day...but I REALLY don't want to be the pitiful little orphan tomorrow.

For one, I love SO's family but I HATE his brother. He is lazy and disgusting and he treats his girlfriend like crap. He is 24, she is 19. I don't want to deal with his dumb ugly face.

For another thing, I am sure they will understand if I miss this dinner, I just feel like its going to be awkward for me, I have never met his brothers GF's mom and I can just imagine the "oh, your mother couldnt make it dear?" OR the "Where is your mother for mothers day?"

DO NOT WANT TO DEAL WITH IT.

but now I look like a bitch. SO keeps texting me because his dad called to see if we were going or not.
I think I'm just going to feign flu like symptoms tomorrow.

Oh no, they do! They know my whole story and past and everything and I always go to family events. But this doesn't seem like just a "family event" you know?

Because the girlfriends mom is going to be there. So essentially I will just be sitting there all awkward while everyone has their moms there.

This is never the case in any other family event/function because they all know and they have become my family. I don't really know how to explain how I feel I guess :/

Yes exactly! He is going to go but I can tell hes not happy that I want to stay home. I am really close with his mom, I just don't want to deal with his brother and those feelings of awkwardness. i will be fine at home lol I just don't want his mom to feel like I'm spiteing her or something?
