Am I a bad person?
I love my grandparents I do.
But they have a bad habit of calling me last minute to help them. I’m talking the day of, within hours of them needing me. I’ve always been nice and tried dropping everything and canceling plans just to help them. And what makes it hard is that it’s simple things they were planning on doing for months and won’t tell me until the day of that they need help with. I tried telling them that I don’t mind helping but I have a family of my own and I need to know in advance with my schedule so I can make things work.
Well anyways my grandparents knew about a specific family members birthday party for monthsssss. Even briefly told me about it and said once they knew more they would tell me more so that I could come along. Well anyways months go by and my grandma is calling me to tell me that the party starts in an hour and they need me to come by to watch their dog for them while they go. I explained how they didn’t even update me on anything, I thought I was also invited and how they just sprung it on to me because this party was going to be on a day that wasn’t this person actual party so I felt hurt that no one told me what was going on. (Even with me endlessly asking what was going on) So I told her no I wouldn’t do it for her because she called so last minute. Moments go by and she calls me sobbing saying how she’s in pain and how she just really wanted me to do this for her and she didn’t feel good but still had to go and that I was a bad person and how she was claiming she didn’t know that the party was happening until a few days prior to it happening which made no sense cause she was talking about it for a long time and how she was going to update me more once she knew more.
What I did, was it wrong?
