Today, I spent two hours making dinner for my boyfriend's family. When I brought it over to their house they said "thanks" and didn't bother to invite me to stay to eat it. FML

At least now you know they're not worth expending any effort for.

You should have said "Now that you saw my food I guess I'll be leaving with it, I just wanted to show you how delicious it was!!"

I agree with #8 personally...you can't expect to be invited in just because you made them food...it'll earn you more brownie points if you just walk away and not start a conflict.

you're supposed to be nice for the sake of being nice, not to get something in return. bitch. you made it for them anyway, i don't know why you immediately set your hopes on them inviting you in to have something made for them.

I wasn't expecting an invitation, I did it because I was trying to be nice. I just thought that an invitation might be a nice gesture to compliment the gesture I gave. My boyfriend wasn't there, he's not the jerk.

yeah i don't blame you at all OP/#92. do they do that kind of stuff a lot? my bfs parents are notorious for saying little things that can be "misunderstood" but are clear jabs at me, and they simply trash me behind my back. If it's a one time occurrence i wouldn't worry all that much but if it's just the norm then stop making nice gestures, it's not worth it.

i dont get this, if u make them dinner, isnt it a given that you would eat dinner with them? And what did they say to you? "Thanks for the dinner, now leave." there is really no way of them telling you that you can't have the dinner that you just prepared for them. Maybe they expected you to stay, and thought you were extremely strange when you just left? I don't see how this is possible.

OP/#92.... Is it necessary for them to compliment the nice gesture you made, cause if that was the only reason (which even with your explanation as #92) it seems like you were looking for them to inflate your ego rather than just trying to do a kind thing for your boyfriend's family sooooo I'm still going to have to say YDI because in saying "I just thought that an invitation might be a nice gesture to compliment the gesture I gave" you are saying that you were expecting an invitation to eat with them.

Umm.... Yeah I would never do anything for them again. That is crazy rude. Come on people even if you don't like your son's GF that is not your choice. Get over it and be nice!
