A 28-year-old daughter was happy to host the family holiday festivities this year. Her. parents recently separated due to her dad being disloyal, but everyone was trying their hardest to get along anyway. The parents agreed to have no qualms while enjoying Christmas with the family. It was planned to be a very nice and wholesome time.
Until recently when the dad declared (he did NOT ask) that was bringing his new girlfriend over, aka the other woman. He gaslight and guilt tripped his daughter with all of his might. His daughter did falter a little bit, but in the end, she knew he was in the wrong. He was being selfish and disrespecting his family's boundaries. It's understandable to want to bring the one you love to the holiday celebrations, but when you were the reason that group of people were put through so much turmoil, then you don't really get to make that decision, now do you?
So instead of fighting back and forth with her dad, she simple canceled everything and told the truth about why. The rest of the family totally understood, and though disappointed, did not blame her. Of course, the entitled father through a Karen-level tantrum about it and continued to guilt trip her. Too bad for dad, he's not winning this one!
