So MAD! Help!!!! what should i do?!

Question

My cousins are coming this Saturday to visit and I'm REALLY excited! They are so much fun but unfortunately i RARELY see them. I found they were coming yesterday so it was sort of last minute but not really b/c they said they were coming at the end of July/early August. Well anyway last Sunday I asked my aunt and uncle if we could go to Orlando, FL and they said ok as long as are parents come or allow my and my bro to go. They said ok, well see. My aunt said we would most probably Aug. 9 or 11 and if not we'll go labor day weekend. That was fine by me. So my aunt called 2 minutes ago and said we're going to Orlando and I'm like WTH?!?!? The already got the rooms and set everything w/out letting me know! and we are coming back Sunday evening!!! MY cousins are coming Sat. noon and leaving Monday night or Tues. morning! I don't want to go! I rather spend time with my cousins! I see them once a year for like 3 days b/c they're so busy! What should i do! This is so unfair! And I've been to Orlando 10 times and plus I go 3 times a year ( for my bro's soccer tournaments) so i don't really care if i don't go this time!

Answer 1

I understand your frustration.  Try this....call your cousins and ask them to put off coming till next weekend.  This way you can have to good weekends.  Hurry go call them.  They should understand.  If not then ask your aunt to call and change reservations till next weekend.  Be nice you will get more positive response if your nice.

Answer 2

I would suggest that you calm down a little and try to see her point of view.  I know it seems unfair to you, and it is true that your aunt should have told you what her plans were before making them for you, but she was trying to include you in a fun event that you asked to do.  It was very rude of you to be angry at her when she was trying to do something nice for you.  So you made a mistake, you should have told her that your cousins were coming and you wanted to be able to see them as well, so you would like to be notified before plans were finalized.  However, your aunt should have spoken to you or your parents before making final decisions regarding a trip.  If you can see her point of view (that she didn't know she was causing trouble and she didn't know your cousins were coming, and she was doing something that you said you wanted to do), you should go to her and apologize for the mistake and for your bad behavior.  Then ask her if it would be possible for her to change the plans at all to allow you all to go to Orlando at another time.  And thank her for doing something so kind as to take you on a trip with her.  If you can show a little maturity and kindness, you will see that your aunt will do the same.

Answer 3

It is rude - sounds to me like your a spoiled little brat.

Answer 4

Just stay and have fun with your cousin you don't get to see them much and orlando will not go anywhere it will still be there next week and the week after, you cousin are leaving and you won't get to see them anytime soon so enjoy them while they are here

Answer 5

Just explain to her nicely, that you only get to see your cousins once a year, and that cancelling and refunding her money for the hotel rooms would be very easy. Really, it's not hard. So just explain that you would love to come but you would really like to see your cousins.

Is there any way you could bring your cousins a long? That would be fun if you could do that...

Answer 6

Okay so don't go. Stay and have fun with your cousins. You said yourself you're the one that asked to go...no one is forcing you...so stay.
