Today, I hate my distant visiting family so much that after work I take a detour and sit in my car on an adjacent street, contemplating reasons not to go home. FML

Geez I didn't expect that to get up. Cheers for the comments! Just a summary for those playing at home: - Family belong to my husband - Husband has spontaneously developed an inability to say "No" to these people - It's like living with a bunch of escaped institutionalized clowns - They depart in 108 hours - I have reason to question my life choices

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Your priorities are completely straight

Perhaps see if you can get overtime at your job to make more money while avoiding distant family working late. Win win.

Why just sit in the car? Go see a movie or a play or something

I feel the same way about my family. I avoid contact when ever possible.

I would tell my husband to grow some balls or I'll start telling them no, probably far less politely than he would. No one should feel so uncomfortable in their own home that they dread coming home after work.

If they're his family, he's the one who needs to learn to say no. Sorry he's being a pussy, OP. I hope he grows a pair before they leave.

I would stay at a local resort or nice hotel if I hated my family that much

I feel your pain OP, my in-laws have a way of making Japanese ritual suicide seem slightly appealing. But, the spouse is worth it...Right?....

It's okay OP, I regularly feel hatred for my regular family. Spend as little time as possible as you can with them, for the inevitable truth is....you can't stay away from your house forever...

But wait, there's more. I just found out today that they're looking to RELOCATE TO OUR AREA! Yay... Now I can really enjoy all 365 days of the year with them around!

... Maybe it's time for you to relocate..."to be closer to work"?

It's best to wait until after they find a place to live. Then move as far as you can.

Clearly, you've angered a higher power of some kind.
