...apart for almost 2 years? Hi,
I am fairly young and am 2 years into a steady job, living away from home ( actually outside the country of birth ) kid. I have my parents visiting and staying with me for around 6-8 weeks coming Easter, of which we are planning to go on a vacation for a week or a fortnight.
This seemed very lovely when the plans were not finalized, however just weeks into the planning phase and I am already getting the creeps.
The worst of my fears are:
1. With the equation between us changed a bit since I am earning fairly well now, will it affect the relationship. Moreover how should I perceive the change and how should I act, for eg. when a restaurant bill is presented ?
2. After almost 2 years we will be staying together for such a long period. The last time before I left home, we were not on great terms. I hope and wish that after this vacation we can agree on a status-quo so that we do not quarrel all the time. It would be preferable if they can respect my feelings and I can respect theirs all the time, but if things take turn for the worse on a holiday with nothing better to do, I have no idea how should such a situation be handled.
3. Finally staying my parents for around 6-8 weeks, I am pretty sure that the animosity between us that was their previously will return. If it does I am as ill equipped as ever to handle. Moreover this time it will be my responsibility as they have come to my place rather than I being theirs.
Please help with suggestions and advise, believe me this thing is eating me out and have no idea how to deal with it !!!
