Despite feeling like his family was trying to take advantage of his fiancé, though, his fiancé actually has a different perspective on the situation. In fact, his fiancé admitted to understanding why he was upset, but his fiancé also pointed out how he was used to people acting like that around him.
So, his fiancé ultimately believes that they should have just given everyone in his family their Christmas gifts. And then, if they did not appreciate that effort, then “tough on them.”
Anyway, now, since hearing his fiancé’s take on the incident, he has been left questioning his actions and wondering if canceling Christmas after his family kept making comments about his fiancé’s finances was the right thing to do or not.
Is it ever okay to make “subtle remarks” like that about a family member’s or future in-laws’ finances? Is it understandable why he got so upset with his family? What do you think about his fiancé’s perspective on the incident? If you had been in his shoes, would you have flown home for the holidays, too?
