Its a close relatives 50th birthday this weekend. Their was a party for said birthday last night that I went to and have been invited for a last minute planned bday dinner at said relatives house.
My GF has been out of town for the week and gets back today. Plan was to spend the night with her at her place. I think it would be rude not to attend my relatives bday thing. My GF was invited as well but she doesn't want to go (she never goes to any of my families things because she says it makes her too nervous). She's now super huffy and passive aggressive and wont agree to a rearrangement of when I see her (all she responds with is 'maybe').
Is she right to be annoyed or is she acting rudely?
Rudely. Part of being in a relationship is sucking up and understanding that not everything is about that person.
She sounds a tad controlling or insecure. If you don't want a fight, acknowledge she is disappointed. Ask if you can spend the night with her still after the dinner (reminding her shes more than welcome to join if she wants) and offer to watch or do stuff she wants to do with her when you do see her. Also get her flowers or something else she'd like.
If you want a fight, tell her she's being pretty selfish and you don't want to spend the night with her acting like a spoiled child anyway.
Had a great night with family. She's still acting cold and passive aggressive despite me offering to see her another day and bring her favorite food

She's definitely insecure and controlling. Gets grumpy very easily and sometimes its like walking on egg shells.
Its rude.
She's definitely being rude but it's good you put your foot down and went to your family's thing
