Today I received an email from my MIL about Christmas dinner. The whole family was on the email and it was an invitation and spreadsheet for who is bringing what. I know my W helped her mom to craft the email so she knows I was included and she was ok with it.
The question is how do I respond? My W hasn't brought it up. We haven't talked about Christmas at all.
My plan was to leave it alone for a week and see if she brings it up. If she doesn't then I'll respond to MIL with "thank you for the invite but I won't be able to make it."
I think I can go to Christmas dinner with no expectations but I'm not sure I really want to unless I know where my W stands. I just don't have an interest in playing family if we aren't a family.
I'd appreciate any other viewpoints.
